  • Need feedback. Learned some tricks on this site.

    Seconding the slow BG load time. I like the effect on the splash page's logo, by why is it not on the main page's logo? Keep it, man! But take the effect off the part that says your name, so that part can read more clearly. Also, just lose…

  • Portfolio/blog Critique

    *sigh* I don't have an excuse to make up words even after spending 10 hrs coding stuff and dealing with an obnoxious client yesterday? You kids. I had another thought, that maybe you could use more graphic design practice. When I started updat…

  • Limit user to 1 comment per post

    I think you're asking for the wrong info, Jake. I wouldn't do that with comments. Sounds like it could be an easy way to get out of programming more complicated stuff, but in the end it probably won't be. You need to develop a form fo…

    Hmm, I'd lose the fancy fonts on all but the menu bar. There's no anti-aliasing on them since you're using @font-face, so they look jagged. If you are on Mac they might look better... I've heard Macs have better font anti-aliasin…

  • Wordpress permalink structure

    I've read something to the effect that WordPress default permalinks cause too many duplicate pages to get indexed (I suppose small sites wouldn't have that problem, though) and that having a too-deep link structure is also bad. I just read…

  • IE

    My vote is for "troll." Or person angry that HTML5's popularity means he has to learn something new. I see a lot of that around. Web dev isn't a good place for those types, IMHO. But if he only said, "IE is holding web deve…

  • WordPress on Yahoo! = @#$%R#$%! (Or How to Get WP on the Root Directory?)

    Yeah, a week ago I got a cryptic remark about it to, something like, "Oh, you said you'd do it on WordPress? Well that's okay if it works with our current host." Doh! I'm telling them to go to Site5 for $10/mo. Jeez. It wou…

  • WordPress on Yahoo! = @#$%R#$%! (Or How to Get WP on the Root Directory?)

    Oh man, after two whole days, the tech support got back to me and said they absolutely don't support putting WordPress on the root directory, and that they'll "pass the concept onto their development team." What the... Clokey, Y…

  • WordPress on Yahoo! = @#$%R#$%! (Or How to Get WP on the Root Directory?)

    Hey, I decided to try that site's instructions out on my own server (lucky I had a spare domain to play with). Guess what? Yahoo's worthlessness has just been confirmed (I know, you're saying "just?"). This totally worked on…

  • WordPress on Yahoo! = @#$%R#$%! (Or How to Get WP on the Root Directory?)

    Yes, but have you actually tried those directions yet? I did, and they're not working for me. Thanks, though. Edit: I just tried it again to make sure I didn't goof it up (I saw that page very late last night). Nope, doesn't work. Bu…

  • PSD Mockup

    You know, it looks a lot like some free Wordpress themes. Well, I don't mean the cruddy ones, though. The graphics are good. You just need to bone-up on web typography, and try not to use straight-up red as a color anywhere (IMO, it's only…

  • Wordpress Sidebar

    Hey, rather than including jQuery that way (which will work), you should enqueue the script as it's bundled in WordPress already. DigWP has an article on it here: http://digwp.com/2009/06/including-jquery-in-wordpress-the-right-way/ This took …
