Okee dokee. It took me all day but I finally got around to 1. purchasing a proper hosting provider for my website, 2. got the whole blog migrated to the new site, 3. got the domain pointed at the new location, 4. figured out the WordPress Codex just enough to make a simple, but effective personalized blog and dynamic website. I decided to go with as little color as possible so that my photos would show up very well against the background without being cluttered.
Now all I need to do is go through the entire website and make sure all the links point to where they are supposed to and that all the outward pointing links open in a new window. All the plugins seem to be working fine and I’ve so far had no problems adding photos and galleries to the site. I’m adding color to the site via photography rather than website images and colorful backgrounds and such. To that end I am also adding photos to older posts, such as adding scans of posters to movie reviews.
After I’ve made the site pretty I will look into re-implementing comments and enabling user registration (part of my scheme to properly control the site). I’ve also been integrating Google Analytics for all my sites. Now I just need to learn Flash and MySQL and I’ll be all set (just kidding: I hate Flash). But I’m not really a computer nerd, I just look like one when the camera’s not attached to my face.
