Testing new forum package.

By , on 21 December, 2004

Those of you who make use of the SEB Forums know that I’ve been meaning to replace the current package in use (IPB 2.0) with something else due to the changes in the licensing for what we were using. I’ve got a test install of the SMF offering in place to see how it stands . . . → Read More: Testing new forum package.

So, is it still too early?

By , on 17 November, 2004

For me to bust out the holiday layout? I’ve been itching to make something a little more festive and this wouldn’t require the living room to be cleaned up first.

Halloween skin in place.

By , on 30 October, 2004

Well, it’s not close to what I had wanted to do nor is it all that different layout-wise like I’d hoped, but I wanted something a little more Halloweeny… Halloween-ish… something that felt more like Halloween in place even if it’s only for a day or so. I’ll have to save all the big changes . . . → Read More: Halloween skin in place.

What to do with the SEB Forums?

By , on 8 October, 2004

Over in the forums we’ve been discussing what to do with them after recently finding out that the script I use to run them will no longer be freely available. The forums have always been a secondary feature of SEB and a good number of folks who visit daily aren’t even aware that we have . . . → Read More: What to do with the SEB Forums?

Testing a port of the Kubrick 1.2.5 template.

By , on 16 September, 2004

There was a request in the ExpressionEngine forums for someone to convert a template called Kubrick 1.2.5 from WordPress over to ExpressionEngine so I figured I’d take a whack at it. You can see what the original Word Press version looks like here and you can see my attempt at converting it to EE here. . . . → Read More: Testing a port of the Kubrick 1.2.5 template.

Mozilla homepage gets a new design.

By , on 2 September, 2004

This just in: The official homepage for Mozilla.org has been redesigned with a spiffy new look. It’s so damned spiffy that I felt compelled to write a blog entry about it. It’s the sort of simple, clean, and pretty design that I wish I was smart enough to do. Dammit. Now I’m jealous. Go check . . . → Read More: Mozilla homepage gets a new design.

Dave talks about using .htaccess to block referrer spam.

Dave over at Dave’s Chalkboard has a whole category on referrer spamming and how to put an end to it using .htaccess. Dave uses ExpressionEngine, much as we do here, and EE has a built-in referrer spam blacklist so I was curious why he’d go through the trouble of using .htaccess instead.
