Redeploy Take Two

Last night's deployment went okay...if everyone in the world used Internet Explorer as their browser. Turns out, a couple of the pages didn't look so great in Firefox, so a few more tweaks later and...hopefully Firefox users (like myself, at home anyway) will be pleased. I believe Safari users will also be pleased. Any other browser, you're on your own. Well, if it looks ugly in Opera, or whatever else people are using nowadays, please let me know and I will make adjustments. What would REALLY make sense is if all browsers rendered CSS the same, then I wouldn't HAVE this problem. But really, the nuances between browsers just makes coding CSS that much more fun. If you have an endless supply of free time on your hands, that is.

New Blog and Other Site Changes

My site will be down this evening for "maintenance". Actually, the maintenance is already completed, I just need to redeploy.

I've made many changes to my site. First of all, I've started another blog. I intended to shut down The Play Yard, but then decided I would continue this blog, adhering more closely to its original intent.

My new blog is titled "Where Faith Meets Science Fiction" and will focus primarily on Christ-based science fiction as opposed to atheistic/humanistic science fiction. Another interesting note (if you are a techie type): my new blog is hosted on my URL via WordPress. I spent several hours over the weekend tinkering so that it matches the look and feel of my website. (I'm slightly OCD when it comes to the GUI.)

Other changes to my site include a reorganized menu structure, an "Overview of The Exception" page, and an "In the Queue" page which lists my pending projects. I've also added another short story to my jdog-ink/fiction page called "Moon Dust Castles". This is a short story in progress that I would like to finish this month.

That's all for now!
