I dont like spam, canned or otherwise

Saturday, September 3rd, 2005 at 10:12 pm

In light of recieving multiple spam comments the last few days, I’ve decided to step things up a bit. I got rid of the Referrer Bouncer plugin, which didn’t seem to be working all that well and I installed Spam Karma 2.

It’s chock full of options and neat ways to rid blogs of comment spam, and it’s been praised very well.

Updates galore!

Thursday, August 25th, 2005 at 6:16 pm

I’m in the process of updating content on the site here.

New stuff on the about page, just random facts about myself.
I’m also working on skinning Gallery to my current theme. It’s coming along nicely, but I just need to work on converting the graphics over to the new layout. Shouldn’t take too long I hope.

Also trying to get the CSS correct for the Super (Live) Archives.. Right now it’s kind of b0rk3d.

I might be adding some other content into the sidebar, such as random Flickr photos… or I might pull them straight from my Gallery. Not really sure on how or what yet..

That’s it for now.
