Comment SPAM

Saturday, April 9th, 2005

I am turning off commenting on the older journal entries here on the site. I am sick of deleting comment spam for poker. Most of it is automatically deleted by the WordPress software, but it does miss some and I have to go in a check on it once and a while.
I figure the easiest way to keep it from getting in is to not let them post.

WCSB Site Redesign

Thursday, February 3rd, 2005

So, I’ve been working on the redesign of the WCSB web site.
I think it’s going pretty good. I need to get the color scheme down. I want to stick with black and white, but I need some other colors thrown in there for highlighting.
I figured out how to create a calendar dynamically since the last time I posted here. Right now this just pulls the show information from a database and puts it into a table. I haven’t done any “real” formatting of the table yet.
I was talking with Tommy Fox last night about the calendar. WRUW put their spring show listing in a huge ad in The Free Times this week. I pointed out how their listing has each day starting at Midnight. That makes sense to me. The current WCSB calendar starts at 7:00 am (on a Monday). Tommy likes that. I think it’s confusing. When you’re at the bottom of the page you’re not looking at the same day (in a column) as the top.
What do you think? I like the calendar starting on Sunday at midnight. I need feedback.

To help fund my music addiction I’m selling a bunch of my old computer textbooks and reference books. Look at them here.
