Preliminary SEB templates are in place.

As you can see, if you’ve stopped by the site instead of reading its RSS feed, I’ve got a half-assed port of the old SEB template moved over to WordPress. It’s missing a few things here and there, but it appears to be functional so I wanted to try it on the live site and . . . → Read More: Preliminary SEB templates are in place.

I’ll be messing around with SEB’s theme soon.

I’ve mentioned before that I’m currently using the Atahualpa theme for SEB because it’s the most configurable one I’ve found outside of Thesis. The latter of which costs money while the former does not, though they do accept donations. Athualpa has a few annoying quirks, but it is amazingly malleable so working with it is . . . → Read More: I’ll be messing around with SEB’s theme soon.

Mozilla to IE: You will be standards compliant whether you like it or not!

I literally laughed out loud when I read this ArsTechnica.com article:

Most browser implementors are quick to adopt emerging Internet technologies, but Microsoft can’t or won’t make Internet Explorer a modern web browser. Despite some positive steps in the right direction, Internet Explorer still lacks many important features. Its mediocrity has arguably hampered the evolution . . . → Read More: Mozilla to IE: You will be standards compliant whether you like it or not!

SEB’s Christmas template is now up.

It’s starting to look a lot like Christmas around here because I felt like it. Slightly different from last year, but same basic color scheme. Was going to try and get a pic of me in my new Santa hat, but haven’t found a good background for it yet. If I get around to it . . . → Read More: SEB’s Christmas template is now up.

SEB Reviews back in action.

I just spent the past couple of hours reworking the long neglected Stupid Evil Bastard Reviews sub-blog in preparation for the various reviews I’ve been working on. In addition to getting rid of the now defunct ExpressionEngine Amazon Plugin, I’ve updated the listings with current pricing and reintegrated it into SEB’s front page so you . . . → Read More: SEB Reviews back in action.

Halloween template is now in place.

As you can see, unless you’re reading this through an RSS feed, I’ve updated SEB with a Halloween theme. It’s mostly just a lot of orange with the first of the Halloween images in place of my usual picture on the left.

Hopefully it won’t end up melting your eyeballs.

Christmas theme is up and man is it ugly.

And I’m not just talking about my picture either. Yes, my sense of color schemes is comically inept and I admit to that. Truth is I’ve been trying to come up with a new layout and graphics for Yuletide and just haven’t been able to pull of any of the things my imagination has cooked . . . → Read More: Christmas theme is up and man is it ugly.

Updated Halloween SEB skin.

I’ve updated the SEB Halloween theme with a new pic of me created by Beau Tochs who is much more skilled with Photoshop then I could ever hope to be. I had attempted something similar myself and it looked damned silly so I’m very grateful for Beau Tochs taking the time to realize my vision . . . → Read More: Updated Halloween SEB skin.

Comment Previews now working properly.

If you’ve been using the preview function in the comments here at SEB you may have noticed that after hitting preview the first time any subsequent previews didn’t update the display properly even though the changes would take effect if you posted the comment. Well, it’s working as it should now with each click of . . . → Read More: Comment Previews now working properly.
