Hammock House

Buongiorno!

I have been working on a new look for the site, a little different than what I am used to, but I like it, and hope that you will too.

I’ve only been able to test in a few browsers, so if you see a problem, please let me know, I will try to correct it.

No, you aren’t imagining it when you see some Italian mixed in with the English, originally it was an Italian theme. Some things I’ve kept that way, just to mix it up a bit. Compared to all the other themes I’ve tried, I’ve made very minor modifications. All others were heavily modified so that original theme was pretty much nowhere to be found. So, that speaks much about how I like this one.

It is still a work in progress, until all kinks are out, but I ‘think’ I’ve gotten majority of it done.

Yes, I know it’s girl-y-ish, look beyond that. It is easy to use, easy on the eyes, etc.? I hope so - so, what do you think?

Ciao e grazie Laura!

Just wanted to send out a FYI -

I’ll still be posting and you can still comment, but things will be looking slightly around here, while I work on the site.

Most things that I will be working on, you might not even notice, because they deal behind-the-scenes, but yet are vital to the site working - correctly! That is the key, sure it worked before, but ‘under the hood’ it was terrible, and I blame myself for not writing my own themes! Instead, I’m using themes that others have written and while they said they were valid, they weren’t well-formed. And yes, it is important. At least to me. So, rewrites are in order and some new things will be used to. :)

Here is the catch though - I cannot remember how to test on Apache. Yes, I know, stupid, but, it has been awhile. So, I have to muck up main site while I clean, fix and test. Hopefully, everything will still be working correctly, if not, holler!

Agghhhhhhhhh…….

I love the Latest News feature - except for one thing!  When old posts are pushed off the that section, instead of dropping down into the main/regular part of the blog, they just drop off the front page, period.

Anyone know of a work-a-round for this?  Otherwise, I’m gonna have to quit using it. :-(

Also…….. for those out there ( Minz in particular :D ) , yes I will be changing the coding to make my page at least fluid/liquid.

Got to run, storms building up and I should have been on the road at least an hour ago with camera. Yikes!

Until later…
