More configuration changes… more headaches
As I move forward with the design, more issues pop up that have to be dealt with. Not all of them have solutions. In an ideal world (my ideal world) the software that I want/need would be readily available, and would do exactly what it is that I want it to do. If this were the case, I think that I would either move onto other projects or would quickly grow bored with computers and never touch them again.
That being said, initial configuration of a site can be an awful drain on a person. It probably does not help that I have been sick the last couple of days with a headache that is not severe enough to send me straight to bed, but bothersome enough that there have been times when I could not stand to look at my monitor for fear of being sick. Even if it was not for that, I am sure that I would have issues with the layout and design of the sight. On the plus note, the design phase has been going much faster this time around, and that is making me glad.
Now if only content would magically appear, then I would be overjoyed. Too bad that is not going to happen. No need to remind me to backup my database (which I still have not done). Overall I think that I like the dark theme, but I am looking at trying out some lighter colors just to test the waters. A person can handle only so much darkness without wanting to scream or run away into the dark. So do not be shocked if this site iterates through a couple of changes for the next couple of days.
Some of the pages on the site might also appear and disappear. This will be due to trying to get things arranged to suit my needs. As a result, some of the information will be moved or morphed as I progress forward. Considering how little content is currently on this site, I would be shocked if anyone is upset about any of the changes. If they are, then they have a strange opinion as to what is meaningful content.
