hello.goodbye

i did it! i managed to move this blog into my newly created wp blog / site over at six06. the integration was seamless. and apart from a couple of bumps in the road, it was soooooooo nice. now everything is organized and clean and … and … and well, you just have to see for yourself.

i won’t be using this blog anymore, so please feel free to mosey on over to the new digs. sorry for all the mess of confusion, folks, i’ll soon be adding a new feed to the lj-syn accounts and deleting this one [that is, if i can't change it], but seeing as i had problems with that to begin with, i doubt i can change it. i submitted a request to LJ … we’ll see how soon it takes effect. [you'll see my previous posts from THIS blog, because i had the posts and comments all imported, so don't be alarmed]. with any luck, this migration will require NO effort from you … except putting up with my BS.

at any rate, thanks for sticking around. i feel much more liberated as a result, and can focus on what’s important to me. again, i’ll still keep the OJ account as it’s the best way to keep in touch with you all and read your private entries. i don’t know that i’ll be making very personal entries at the site, but if i do, you may wish to subscribe, as you’ll need, from my understanding, a password to read the protected entries. [i'm still learning about open id and such]. in the meantime, come on over and take a look, tell me what you think and feel free to drop a line :) i’ll be issuing a formal announcement as soon as i set up the redirects through six06.

OH! and if anyone knows of a plug in i can install to get my images to pop up instead of you being taken to a page by itself, i’d be more than happy to know. i can’t recall how i did it last time :( , but i know using ‘rel=”thumbnail”‘ was a part of it. hmph.

peace, y’all.

i figured i’d get crackin on getting the WP fully operated and up so i can launch the new site. i’d been whittling away at updating the galleries all the while, and had added incidental pages, including updating my resume [a pain in the buttocks, always has been]. i’d noticed in all that time that WP offered an upgrade. seeing as i was about to take on a massive one up, i figured it was best to get that out of the way … as it could resolve the issues i’ve had with tags and such. lo, guess who deleted all her files? that’s right. FUCK!

well, jiminy, back to the drawing board. maybe now’s a good time to find a template that actually works with tags properly. *sigh*

*logs into admin*

er … no, they seem to be there. hrm.

clearly this is going to have me crying within the next few frustrating hours.

ETA: well, i didn’t cry. in fact, i got a few pages up. :) BUT! the java that allowed my images to pop up instead of taking you to a different page is now disabled. the theme i’m using [which after spending an hour looking for something different, but was not pleased by the selection ... or rather, how it would compliment the work] does not have an update for the WP update. grr. but i suppose it’s better than nothing. for now, anyway. i will figure something out later. right now, i’m pretty braindead.
