It’s been a super-exciting week, full of great leaps in Being an Adult and great technology. After a lot of procrastination, I finally got my license, which is a Great Thing. Also, I finally got a PSP, of which I am having an absolute blast tweaking with. Seeing as I am a background customization whore, there will definitely be a new category going up in mister world for PSP wallpapers, because I can’t be the only one beating my head off the keyboard because most of the backgrounds available mostly feature cars, scantily clad women, and ripped/cropped walls from animewallpapers.com, alas.

The best thing, though: thanks to emulators and homebrew, and Saint Andrew (the patron saint of handheld gaming system modification), I can finally, finally play FFVII and Xenogears on a handheld, something I’ve wanted to do forever.

A super-exciting week, indeed.

So, at last, I’m calling this damned theme done.

This was, quite possibly, the most frustrating project I’ve decided on in a while.  Wordpress has a ridiculously complicated css file, that had me totally confused for most of the design, and I dunno … green’s not exactly my color.  Whatever.  Anyway.

As for big updates around the network, not a whole lot happening beyond the struggles with a few different content management systems.  I moved my fiction from this domain to its new domain, which is probably a little silly considering that I don’t really do a whole lot of it, and installed eFiction over there.  Check it out at karaoke-soul.net.  Feel free to leave some reviews or challenges; that’s most of why I ended up using the script in the first place.  Currently, I’m working on a few different fiction projects, all of which are interesting but rather mentally consuming, and at least two of them are really making me feel the sting of not being as great at my favorite hobby as I wished I was.  We’ll see how things turn out, though, oh yes.

Mister World should be getting something of an update, soon — I’m currently wrangling with a layout database script that refuses to cooperate, and it seems to have been discontinued, so I’m eyeing some alternatives.  Technology is so full of headaches for me, hee.

So, I’ve been secretly tinkering around with wordpress, thinking about using it as site-wide content management. I have an almost-completed template for mister world, but I kind of gave up on it after a while.

Anyway, I figured that since EA was up for a new layout anyway, that I’d get another chance to work on it. EA is actually a little bit easier to manage, since I don’t have any other scripts to mess with, and it’s really little more than a gateway to the rest of the network, so it wouldn’t get overwhelming. So. Yes, as of now, EA is wordpress-powered, and it should be quite the learning experience if anything.

And because I could, I added a plug-in for avatars. I like little pictures. :3
