New Blog Home

I finally moved my blog over to my own domain and host -- yay! I wish there was a way to mirror it on frameadvance.blogspot.com. Maybe there is, who knows. I also wish there was a way to use the Blogger Layouts customization for blogs that are hosted on non-Blog*Spot servers. And I wish I could invent a way to never have to sleep, so I could reclaim those hours for all my hobbies. Naw, scratch that last one. Sleep can be nice sometimes. Zzz...

Getting the Hang of Blogger

Okay, I've managed to tweak the look of my new Blogger blog to somewhat match the look of my web site, and I also copied a few of my old posts over to this new blog. I discovered by accident that you can add new color and font variables to the template, which makes it easier to keep the CSS consistent. And as an added bonus, the new variables you add also show up in the "Template / Fonts and Colors" list. Pretty snazzy! If only they'd add more controls besides just color and fonts! (I'd love to add variables for layout dimensions.) Anyway, there's an article here that tells how to do this sort of thing, but I didn't discover it until I was done. Sometimes it's just more fun to figure these things out yourself!

Hello World!

I've decided to give Blogger a try. I really wanted to FTP my files to my ISP so they can live in harmony with my existing web page (www.FrameAdvance.com), but I couldn't get that to work. *sigh* So my first blog entry is about blogging -- lame! I'll try to write about more interesting stuff in the future.

The posts before this one were copied over from my old blog on FrameAdvance.com.
