Temporarily unrebooted.

So, the first of May has come and gone. So has a deadline that I was dearly hoping to make. If you’ll notice, this site is not sporting any of the previously promised, lovingly redesigned, standards-savvy, tableless, CSS goodness. Well, there’s a reason for that. It’s simply not ready for prime time. I’m not happy with it, and it’s not finished. I don’t want to make this sound like the redesign has been pushed to the back burner … it’s still in progress. Great gobbing leaps of progress are occurring, albeit sporadically. Right now, family and other commitments come first … as it should be. Bits and pieces will emerge slowly. Promise. In the meantime, the RSS feed has been finally switched over to use full descriptions (why I hadn’t implemented that previously is anyone’s guess), and I’m tinkering with using the pop-up Blogger comment thingie.

    Best not to rush such a project. I recently started work on a new layout myself, but after several weeks and more than several restores, I’ve falled back to my original design. Fear of broken code and lousy design still has me tinkering about.

    That’s really what I’m thinking. Yes, I’m delaying things again, with the possibility of dragging the redesign out another dozen months, and that bothers me. However, this version of the underlying site structure has come along further than any other iteration that I’ve tried to build. I’ve made some real progress this time and can actually see the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. This one will be unveiled, perhaps in pieces… but unveiled nonetheless.
