Flawed Template, New Logo, Great Plans

  • Sharebar

Update: Rajaie has fixed my template and I really thank him for that. You can visit him here

So our class just took 4 hours and already went home and there’s pretty a whole lot of time to blog. Right now I’m gonna share you the things that took place for the week as well as plans

my logoNew Logo –> Yeah I think it’s great. Someone at bp told me to make a logo and so I did. I head to digital point forums and have someone for me to carve out one. Actually I purchased three so just in case this logo flunks, I still have a backup.

Threaded Plugin Comments –> is not supported in this template I guess. I really really love Brian’s threaded comment because it makes your blog more alive but I guess I’m not that blessed to use it…

Link colors, wtf! –> So this is my biggest embarrassment thus far. Everytime I ask how to change the color of the links to blue, people tend to look at me and say i’m a fool. Well the truth is, I really can’t. I have asked help from every forums, sitepoint, dp, blog premiere everywhere but none seemed to solve my case. I know you are gonna say I should edit the style.css and look for the a part or maybe a:link and replace the hex code. But to tell you guys, it really isn’t working. I’m close on hiring someone to do that simple thing for me. But of course it’s better to get away with it free. So who’s willing to help me? I’m gonna give my theme to you and resolve my case… For now links can be determined when you hover you’re mouse and the color changes to red.

Head to Head –> So yesterday I shot Daniel of Daily Blog Tips an email regarding whether I can use his concept of blogger face off but with a little variation. He said yes and boom! I can do it now also. I’me very excited about this new feature because it gives smaller blogs a chance to get featured.

Great Girls Friday –> So another great plan for the blog. Shoemoney is running a free shirt friday right and me with GSF. The main goal here is to feature girls I like on my blog every friday and giving a link back at them. It varies. I can interview lady bloggers out there (I’m targeting the beautiful Lisa Bettany) or have a picture with a beautiful girl here in Philippines (you know there are a lot of great girls here ;-) )

Go Boston Celtics –> So with the series up 2-0 I think Lakers will bounce back strong but I’m sure Boston will prevail. By the way I have a basketball blog entitled Triviality of Basketball. All the expenses for this blog are taken to that blog’s earnings… Are you in the Celtics bandwagon?

      I like the logo a lot, though not sure if I knew what the old one looked like!! Though one thing that is weird is that my name and url for the comment section is white on white so I can’t see it??

      Anyways, thank you for visiting best of stupid – don’t feel bad, it took me a few tries on that quiz too, lol. I will have to visit your site here again – looks like you’ve got some good tips I’m sure could be very helpful :)
