Buzzman25’s World

Well, if you looked at the archives you’d notice that the last time that I posted anything was February 14th, 2003, which is almost two years and eight months since I last posted to my web log (blog).

I was talking to one of my friends, and they had said that I had pretty much fallen off the face of the planet and that I only post big events such as parties and raves. Well, I decided to tinker around with things a little and I’ve set up Word Press to be my blog.

We’ll see if I can keep it up, but basically I’m going to try to make mini posts about what has happened through the week, and then my main posts will be posted not only here, but on MySpace and Livejournal. Hopefully this will be fun like it was before, it seemed that I got a lot of comments when I did this, so maybe we’ll get some more kudos this time around too.

I have inserted a section to the right of the blog dedicated to upcoming events such as birthdays and important events. No one ever commented on me wishing everyone a happy birthday and I doubt many people read this blog. Sooo….I’m no longer posting birthdays unless something happens at a birthday party.

Well, I just got done spending 3 hours getting the STHS NJROTC Website up to par, well…as up to par as it can be with the info that I have. I also added some rank images for the people in the forums, should make it a little more fun. I’ll probably do something like that for my board soon but it’s not a priority with only 4 people visiting.

Homepages are funny things…if you want to have a successful one you have to keep at it and make it better by adding things to it to keep people interested. Heh, maybe one day I’ll have time to encode some fun games. /shrug

I’m off to go recode my KOA and Tahoe Pines web pages so that they utilize full screens like I’ve corrected my site to do.

Well, I decided that I was going to revamp my website after I did some research about computer screen resolutions. My webpage will not resize to fill your browser window, people with 800 x 600 resolution will experience the same effect, while people with higher resolutions will not suffer the tunnel effect.

I have also added a randomizing banner ad. Currently Dynamite Mambo is the only person that has any banner’s up mainly because I have not offered to host anyone else, and I know she appreciates any traffic I can drive her way. Leave a comment if you like it, or write a constructive criticism of what you think I should do to fix the site.

Just a FYI….I have a lot more things I want to try, so don’t ask for more content yet. :p

Well, today has been an easy day. I woke up and logged onto EverQuest to see what was happening and decided that I would be better off logging out and doing something different today rather then burn myself out like I’ve done in the past. So, instead I looked over all my web pages that I’ve neglected for some time and checked over everything. It seems that everywhere, not just my site has been placed as a second priority so I don’t feel so bad anymore about not updating my site more often.

Basically I took today to just sit back and relax instead of finding something to fill my time with, however I do need to get something done each day so I don’t feel that it has been wasted, so…with that said, I’m signing off to work on some flash files for my family’s website, Lake Tahoe KOA Kampground.

I hope that everyone is doing well, and I’ll catch you all later!

Well, if you visit the site often you would have found that my website went down last night. Apparently it was time to renew my domain name but because I had blocked all mail but who I specify I didn’t get my renewal notice!! Well, I’ve added my registrars address so that I will now recieve those important e-mails, however, it does not matter much since I have 2 more years from today before I have to pay again!

See you in the forums.

It’s such a feeling of accomplishment when you’ve taken your time and put your heart and soul into designing a web page that you hope everyone will enjoy to look at, use, and come back to again!

In an effort to prevent anyone from being the victim of a spam robot, I’ve removed the tag that placed your e-mail as a link on your name when you post comments. Instead it will still require your e-mail in case you have selected to receive e-mail notifications about new comments. It will still allow you to enter your web page and will show THAT up as a link. I personally hate all the junk mail that I get, and any tricks that I figure out that may prevent it, I’ll try to do.

I changed the navigation bar to show the new pages that I created. I added my countdown page link, something that’s not important, but now it’s easy to find. I also added a link to my new calendar. There are a lot of things that I can do with it, but for now, I’ll leave it as it is. If someone would like me to add their birthday to the calendar I can do that, just e-mail me.

I also just set up my Web Mail service so I might start offering YourName@Buzzman25.com e-mail addresses, I’ll keep you posted.

I was bored and decided to dedicate a page to the upcoming events in the future.
