Ok, I’m pretty sure I got this now
Lincoln Adams | August 3, 2008 @ 12:23 amHere it is, a nice compromise between having a dark theme and accommodating those of you who simply MUST have a boring white layout with boring black text, because you’re color blind or have the eyes of a 90 year old or just like to bust my chops because you’re a petty vain creature who needs to seriously sit on something spiky and leave me the flip alone already. Mother.
You have no idea what kind of work it took to go into the theme and hack some serious gibberish “What Drunk Monkey Came Up With THIS Crap?!?!” that we all know and love as PHP and CSS, just so I could make you guys happy. I didn’t go all whitey though because it seemed too bright to me, so I toned it down a bit and modified the line height for the easiest readability. Please tell me this looks alright to you or I’m just gonna have to go out and start kicking in the faces of those asstastic illegals who sit on the corner waiting for work and ruining the look of the neighborhood just by being ugly.
Come to think of it I’d be doing that anyway even if I was in a good mood. 
But seriously, let me know what you think. I also finished embedding the Gallery script into my blog here, so I can now upload albums of photos and even video/audio content as well. Super cool. I love to keep everything in house instead of seeing my junk being exclusively shipped out to content stealers like Flickr and YouTube, so being able to get this working was a godsend. You know how the US Army uses the slogan “Army of One?” Well consider me the Social Media Network of One. Why? Because I am just too awesome to participate in third world networks like MySpace and Facebook. 
I think that pretty much wraps it up as far as the upgrade goes. I may play around with AJAX a little to see if I can enhance some features here, but it already seems like overkill to me. Plus I really need to go out and get some sun after having been up my blog’s rear end for over a week now.

The non-white color looks PINK to me. Are you sure it isn’t some very light shade of pink? LOL

I assure you I’ve scrubbed the site of all pinkishness. Might have snapped a screenshot of it for… educational purposes though.

Thanks, let’s hope it can handle REAL traffic too. Though that day will probably never come.
