This site looks awful in IE 6, but FLIR works

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

I haven’t checked this site in IE 6 since I re-themed it and man it looks bad.  Maybe it’s because it’s running a virtual machine - I hope that’s the reason but I wish IE 6 would just go away and die.  But really why not take it a step further and wish that Microsoft would make browser that were standards compliant.  So sorry IE 6 users is this site looks bad you might want to use Firefox, Opera or Safari.

Lightbox Plus and FLIR, Projects and Frameworks

Friday, August 22nd, 2008

I’ve got a whole lot on my plate and development efforts for Lightbox Plus, FLIR for WordPress and Actionable are going to have to go on hold for a bit.  I’m going to try to push out another release of Lightbox Plus either tonight or tomorrow then after that I probably won’t even be able to provide much in the way of support for about a week and a half.  I’ve got to literally cram a 3-4 week project into 3-4 days.  I’m not looking forward to it.  Then I’m going out of town for about five days for a much needed escape.

To get the project I need to finish out done by Thursday of next week I’m looking at some frameworks for PHP though I’m not sure they wouldn’t just slow me down.  Ideally they shouldn’t and right now I’m trying to decide between CakePHP and Symfony.  Both are good but it’s pretty much going to be whichever I can pick up on quickest tomorrow or Sunday night.

After I get back from being away I will still have more to do on the project but I should hopefully be able to put some time into the plugins - at the very least I should be able to do some support.  I hope everything doesn’t go to hell in a handbasket while I’m gone.

Theme Bugs

Friday, July 25th, 2008

I just realized there are a few style issue as well as bugs with this theme.  I’m going to try to fix them today.  They include things like misaligned text and not comment sections.  I must have been working on it too late at night.  Doh!
