The new theme hasn’t disabled comments. Just look at the number below the date and click on that and you will be able to leave comments. I suppose there’s a few people that might check this from day to day. Right now there isn’t much going on but as I have time that will increase.

Because as you get older the days get shorter in comparison, or relative, to your entire life. When we were kids one day was an eternity at times because we were always waiting for ’something’ or excited about ’something.’ Now ‘adulthood’ is FILLED we deadlines and dates and have-it-in-by’s and it all just zooms by. Maybe a little Time manipulation is in order.

Ever notice how when you don’t feel rushed you have plenty of time to do things? Always?

Okay so I narrowed down the alignment problem to the browser I was using

With this theme the following browsers show:

• IE7 - everything aligned properly but no rounded corners (you should see the curves, they’re purdy)
• Opera 9.52 - Everything works and the theme looks great
• Firefox 3 - Everything works and looks great
• Google Chrome - Misaligned flash but has rounded corners.

Now that is narrowed down I can start figuring out why IE7 doesn’t like the post writing page.

I found this kickass theme. Changing the background is easy. I really like how simple it is and keeps the visual noise down while being aesthetic. 

Yes I know some of the alignment is broken. But what do you think? Any ideas for a background I could throw in there?

Apologies for everything that was lost in the last month. The host disappeared completely and my last backup was a month ago. REMEMBER TO BACKUP! I now have the DB set to auto backup and email the backup to an email account not associated with mikebenton.org so it doesn’t ever disappear.
