i did work on that website after my last post. i made some progress, and the multiblog approach is really picking up momentum. i think it will work, and make things easier, especially on the photo gallery side of things. i can set it up so each picture has its own little post that can include a caption. i'll just get rid of the date stuff, so it looks like a page full of pictures. that way, i don't have to play around with code in a giant file everytime i want to add a picture, or try figure out how to set up a database. we can just add a post. by we i mean him. it will make things much easier having one picture per line instead of the two i was going to do before. i was going to take uniformly sized selections from each picture so everything would look tidy, but now i don't have to worry so much, because everything will have its own post anyways, so there won't be horizontal spacing issues.
i also think i have the main layout for the block of text at the top of each page finished. i added a bunch of oldschool
's to spread things out a little, with a new school twist that will be awesome with my multiple stylesheet format. each new sheet has different hr definitions, so i can leave the same tags in when i copy the templates over to the other pages, which is nice since i now have 27 more to do. the more copying and pasting the better. so what do i need to do now to have a semi-completed project?
-set up the other blogs.
-write the block of text at the top of each page (with help from the business owner, hopefully)
-set up and code the template for the gallery blogs
-select, resize and rename images for galleries
-post and caption images for galleries
-add
functionality to stylesheets 3-7
-add google ads to the main page (or enable adsense on each individual blog)
-code some meta tags for the head section
-FUCKING POPUPS
i am sure there is more than that, but if i finish those things by the end of the weekend, i will be in really good shape.
i am still unenthusiastic about how it is going to turn out, but it isn't my website so i shouldn't worry so much.
