Flynn's Paws: My Thoughts, My Gripes

Tag: prose

A literal technique ‘opposite’ to verse (e.g. poetry).

    Copied text from `Gravatar` widget and pasted into `Content` page, which appears at the top. Removed `Gravatar` widget from sidebar and `Sun Angel` image from `Content` page.

    I’ve been editing my paid CSS Stylesheet upgrade to the current (but free) WordPress.com theme:

    Unsleepable by Ben Gray

    A simple two-column theme that appeals to the monochrome amongst us

    Tags: two-columns, fixed-width, right-sidebar, white, light, widgets, sticky-post, rtl-language-support

    For hovering over links with pink background and white font:

    `text-decoration:underline!important;
    background:#0D78B6;
    color:#fff!important;`

    Here are key areas for making the `width `work well. You may need to adjust the `.primary` (left stuff) and the` ul.secondary` (right stuff) to suit your preference:

    `#page {
    width:760px;
    }`

    `#header{
    width:760px;
    }`

    `.primary {
    width:580px;
    }`

    `ul.secondary {
    width:165px;
    }`

    Expect to press the `Preview` and `Save Stylesheet` buttons frequently! Good luck!

  • 20090806-New Theme

    I’m bored again and trying another free theme at WordPress.com:

    Unsleepable by Ben Gray

    A simple two-column theme that appeals to the monochrome amongst us.

    Tags: two-columns, fixed-width, right-sidebar, white, light, widgets, sticky-post, rtl-language-support

    PROS:

    • Subpages to my main parent pages: contents, web book, faq, about me, and contact me.
    • The `search` form always appears on the upper right hand corner.

    CONS:

    • Excerpts (summarized around 60 words) instead of full view of each entry.
    • No time/date stamps.
    • No tag-line.
    • Monotone but it’s okay because my most recent theme felt too colorful and busy.
    • Applying one widget to the `Main Sidebars` would knock out the subpages feature.

  • 20090804-Editing Weblog

    Changed colors ‘lis-style’. Tried changing theme again. Edited sidebar ‘h2’: ‘capitalize’. Replaced slideshare.net presentation ‘Flynn’s Blogs’ but looks same.

  • 20090804-Edited Page

    Since hardly anyone visits my other weblog site, I’ve consolidated duplicated pages from `flynnsorgone.wordpress.com` (now set to Private) to the `Orgone` page by using the `< !– more — >` tag.

      Got recorded voicmail message from Bankster Of America @ 1247pm per Kim F. to call back @ 1-877-733-5734 for past due amt over $600, which I paid that same day.

    4. 20090727-News Tagged

      Removed `news` from category and saved as `prose`. `News` is now a tag. Moved `Flynn’s Editorials` above each news articles. Renamed post titles appropriately.

    5. 20090723-New Background

      Downloaded clipart image of a background from Microsoft. It shows circles of pastel colors in purple, blue, green and gray, just like the color schemes of my weblog site.

    6. 20090720-New Categories

      Got bored again! Added more categories under ‘Verse’ (disc) based on the number of lines (circle), in which invented rhyme schemes are placed (square). See `Archives` page or `Categories` widget.  Still more poems to sub-categorize.

    7. 20090719-New Pages

      Added two new pages: `In Depth Report` per astrology report long ago and `Epitaph` in verse and both can be found under the `Profile` page via the `About me` page.
