my pink toes

I've been tweaking the blog some more. I'm loving learning more about CSS and Movable Type.

Using the awesome resources of a rockin' website, I moved my "About" page to its own template within my blog - without having to make it an entry (and added more hyperlinks to it). Very, very cool! I may do the same with my new "Toes" page, which I had to backdate to "hide" on the blog.

I also learned how to make the entry titles click to the permalink (individual entry page). Go ahead - try it! Click on the "More MT Geeky Goodness" title up above. Cool, eh?

The same website also gave me the code I needed to add a "Recent Comments" section on my sidebar (scroll down and check it out).

I can't get the clickable banner to work yet. It's driving me crazy. But I really should spend more time writing and less time geeking. It's amazing the lengths I'll go to - it's like that college "study avoidance" all over again. (When my husband was getting his master's degree, our kitchen was always sparkling. He's NOT a kitchen-cleaner, but he'd clean it from top to bottom to avoid doing his homework. We all do crazy things when we're avoiding what we want to do, but don't want to start).

Update: I got the clickable banner to work! Yay - click my banner on the top and it takes you to my home page! Whee! Duh - I had to change "www.yourblog.com/path/to/your/banner/image.jpg" with the ACTUAL URL OF THE IMAGE ON MY SITE. I can be dumb sometimes. I probably definitely should sleep more and geek less.

But I also need to fix the width of my banner...it's about 20 pixels too narrow....

STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER, LEAH!
