I'm a Hacker !

Honestly, I know I could spend my time cleaning the house, wrapping Christmas gifts, or a number of other 'more important' things; but I can't seem to pull myself away from my new blog. I get so engrossed in projects and they consume all of my time... until that is, I become engrossed in another. :)

Right now, blogging has taken center stage. I am having a blast learning the html/css coding for the new 'beta' template. I have found a number of great tutorials and have thereby been spending my spare time hacking the standard templates to make my blog more unique to me. :)

Changes made within the past few days:

* Added a 3rd column to the minima template
* Created label tabs for easier navigation
* Created a favicon (which should show up as a butterfly graphic in the URL line - works best in Firefox browser)

Changes to come:

* A Graphic Banner
* A Graphic Footer
* Modify the text on the comments link
* Larger margins between the 3 columns
* More links within 'hacking', 'inspiration', and 'motivation'

I know I spend more time on all of this than most of my visitorrs even recognize. I do it for me... I enjoy the challenge. But - if there is something you'd like to see here - something you've seen elsewhere that you think would improve my site - please let me know. :)

  1. It must be great if you tell people how to do those too,

  2. I found all the tutorials on one of the 3 hacking links found in the left column. Unfortunately, most of the 'tweeks' are rather complicated and I would only get you more confused. I'd suggest spending some time on those sites... they have links to others as well... I'm sure you can find what you are looking for. :)
