its been days since i started engaging into the blogging mania. since then, i was constanly online in my quest for the perfect template. a week ago, i begun using one victorian template. chose that template because i was on the lookout for a simple yet elegant looking one. something that will not hurt the readers eyes as well as mine (hehe). when i first saw this light brown template with flowery border, i said to myself, not bad... i can use and live with this. well, i had a hard time customizing it, adding the tagboard and contents. those were the only things i've done so far but it was presentable enough. if someone happens to get lost into it, he could recognize it as a blogsite already, hehe.
anyway, i was happy with that accomplishment not until i got online then brag it to my nephew, and have him take a look at it. guess what, he said "tita, your blogsite looks so...hmm...victorian". rephrased to mean "too old-looking", so as not to hurt my feelings. well, that's why i started looking for another template, simple yet elegant and not "victorian"!!! haha. luckily enough, i chanced upon this new template... simple, elegant and angelic!! haha. feeling angelic, if i may say so. i downloaded it with so much excitement, but with all the activities i have to do (practice for choir and seminar at the office), i have to postpone its construction for some days.
so far, i've have started the overhauling of my blogsite. what you see is what you get! i realized that eventhough you stole a nice blogger template from someone, customizing it to your liking is still a pain! i know, i know... this blogsite still needs some fixing. i recognize the fact that i still need to resolve the following:
need to have an archive page. dunno where i will place the archive source code. <-- i was finally able to turn on the archiving thingy! (06/14/07) hurray! no need for a separate archive page as this was not supported by blogger anymore. they recommended having the archive links be placed in the main page instead. kaya naman pala eh! it helps to read the "help! i'm lost page of the host". =)
need to have a title... dunno how will i add that above the text area.
need to add the links!... still figuring how to add that below the text area again! <-- links were added.. although some may still be dead at the moment. can't find time to make the extra html files kasi eh. =(
need to update and correct links in the navigation (blockquote) area. <-- done!!! ngahaha
add some scripts such as mood meter, site meter, and lahat ng klase ng meter! ;P
need to add a tagboard! now, if i remember it right, i did it in my previous version. how come i can't configure it this new version???!!! <-- okay, i did it! see below! =) 4 down, 2 to go! bwahaha...
still a long way to go. =( but then, as i post my online journal, hopefully i can also resolve the blogsite construction issues one at a time. the thing is, i now have a blogsite that can post my thoughts. it's a post as you construct, construct as you post task. :)
