Brads Blog

Earlier this week, I posted that I was shopping for a new theme for my blog. I got to tinkering around and realized that if I did that, I would be spending weeks working on getting all the plugins I have moved over to a new theme, and that simply isn’t worth it.

However, I have decided to start making some changes to the current theme.

After reading Yvonne’s Blog, I was inspired to Spice up my comments area.

I went ahead and installed the Comments Quicktags plugin, and as you can see in my comments area, the neat little buttons it created. I like this a lot.

One of the other subtle changes I have made was I added a sitemap for Bradsblog. I did this by using the Sitemap Generator plugin for Wordpress.

There are a lot of other ideas bouncing around in my noggin about the design/layout and will continue to make improvements. One day soon I’m going to do a major makeover, and maybe even go away from the green and black.

I was reading today an article that explains how a new website called Spiral Frog will offer up free music downloads, legally. They will be able to do this by selling advertising on the site. I will be anxious to see how this pans out!

Well, Roxie is adjusting to her new home well, except when she is left alone. She doesn’t like it at all! She is displaying some signs of anxiety, in the form of a brown, fluid mess on the carpet.

Our vet suggested putting her on “Puppy Prozak”, the diluted form of human Prozak. This should ease her nerves.

We picked up a ninety day supply and the vet said it should start kicking in within a couple of weeks. I’m hopeful this will “Do the trick”.
