NO CASH VALUE

I made a new theme for my page. It’s not quite finished, but I think I have enough of the major stuff finished that I can start using it. I named it after the model of my recently destroyed ship in EVE Online.  And yes, it is very plain, thank you.

Ah, the accordion. Where would we be without it’s… sound? According to Adam, June is Accordion Awareness Month. I don’t know if that’s true or not, or from what sources he knows this, but it seemed like a good excuse to do some work.

Ya see, “accordion” is also the name of a swiffy-slidey-sexxy effect thing for web design that displays and hides content in a slidey, swiffy kind of way. Overall it’s very sexxy. Anyway, it’s a pretty nice way to not overwhelm your viewers with crap. Or something.

I’ve also been working my way through MooTools, which happens to make accordions pretty damn easy. We’ll see what else I can accordionify by the end of the month.

I recently realized that Priscilla is, at least at this time, only going to work with PHP5 or higher due to the way some of the functions operate.  I’ve decided that my primary focus is getting Priscilla on her feet, so I’m not going to redo any of the code right now.  Once I’m at a more comfortable place in the project, I’ll give it some thought.

I didn’t get a lot of work done, but I was able to to get Priscilla to properly edit existing comments in Vanilla.  That’s what I was stuck on last night, and it was driving me crazy.  Amazing what fixing a couple spelling errors can do.  I think I’m going to try to clean up the code, do some optimizations and get her ready for testing some time early this week.

Another late night working on Priscilla.  I prefer to stop on a positive note when working on projects, but that’s not the case today.  I’d be a lot more frustrated, if I wasn’t so exhausted.  Time for a rest, then back to work.

I really surprised myself. I managed to take a project from idea to sort-of-completed within a couple days. This one is even somewhat useful, unlike that MTGO CSV Parser I never did anything with.

I’ve been calling it Bucketr, though whether or not that will be the final name, who knows. It’s a PHP script that copies all of your photos from Photobucket and uploads them to your account on Flickr. Pretty spiffy, eh?

I only just got it functional. I still have to go through and make it pretty and usable, but that’s the easy part. I’ll send out more details when I have it closer to completion.
