dashes of light

You may have noticed that there's a new theme in town. It's only been a month or two since the last redesign around here, but that one was sort of lame. It was textural and gritty, but kind of amateurish. This one has a little more class

It's a rather nice theme, if I do say so myself, and I've been prepping it for public release.

I'm quite proud of this site, especially the fact that I did all the photography too. Food photography really is harder than you would think, but I'd say I did just fine.

The dawn of Joby on the internet

It all started one afternoon in middle school, it must have been around 1997 and I was 11 years old. Me and my friends had recently discovered the internet, but not having connections of our own we had to expend a lot of effort to get online.

We would wait for hours at the New Mexico Tech Student Union building or library, hoping a student would forget to log off so that we could hop on behind them and go gallivanting around in the wild west that was the internet in the 90s.

New theme, bear with me

I'm making a new theme for my site, and it's coming along nicely.

Unfortunately there are a handful of little bugs that it has encountered in its meeting with Drupal, and it might be a bit before I have them all ironed out.

Bear with me, it'll be worth it.

In the meantime, I have a question. Imagine this theme (minus my name, of course) all polished up to be a real theme and properly pull in the appropriate site name and stuff. Would you want it?

Would you want a Photoshop template and basic structure to make your own version?

I'm coming along with my project of rebuilding my site in Drupal. I learned a whole lot building a new version of www.nmtpas.org (may not be live yet as you read this, check drupal.nmtpas.org), and hopefully I can filter that into this site.

The thing is that when I'm building a site for myself I'm too willing to settle for "good enough." I figure hey, whatever if it's a kludge and a half. I just have to remember to make those posts in that stupid way every time from now on...
