Getting Started

I have no idea what should I write here. Obviously I am too engrossed in figuring out how to manage this site instead of posting anything here… Heh. So yeah, after a lil bit of thought, I decided to choose a simple web template. The previous one that I used was cute, but the colour was too dark to my liking, actually. This one is just nice. It’s simple and nice (I think). I got this theme from Custom Design Theme - a pretty good site with lots of nice themes to choose from.

Yeah, me being the “blur” one in this website thingy, decided to use & modify a custom-made theme @ web template. It’s easier that way, I guess. Yeah, imagine starting from scratch!!! If I were to start from scratch, I’m sure I would destroy this whole page. Haha… Yeah, this page will be fulled of weird unknown codes then. *bleh*

I love the Fantastico De Luxe in the cPanel; a web management software @ script installer pre-installed in the hosting package. It makes this website thingy simpler and easier to manage. Yup, that’s what had helped me in the first place, actually. And of course, it helps a lot that this site is powered by Wordpress. Not much hassle to manage things here.

Well, one thing about the Fantastico De Luxe though. It was said to be a recipe for disaster. How far that is true, I am not sure. Maybe yeah, perhaps it may make things a bit more complicated with all the scripts scattered around. Well, I am not that familiar with all the weird scripts anyway. So although I found Fastastico De Luxe to be a real help, I do limit the installation of scripts there. Not that I doubt the convenience, but it is more because of my choice to reduce risk. Yeah, in not being familiar with the scripts and all, I know I would only end up in disaster if I decide to install a lot of scripts from there. So yeah, it depends, I guess. Those who are familiar with the software would certainly find themselves having no problem with it. Yeah, it’s a matter of individual preference, I guess.

What I know as of now, I am quite content with what I have going on so far on this site. I know it is still a bit ‘cacat’ with a lot of blanks here and there, invalid links here and there, etc. But it doesn’t really matter to me now. As long as I don’t see unknown parameters / scripts flashing on this page, everything should be ok (for me). I’m just glad that at least I can see a lil bit of progress in 2 days after this domain is up.

So yeah… *cheers* More improvement to come to this site (hopefully).

//Edit: I hate that the allignment for the post is not “justify”. Would appreciate it if anyone can suggest how do I “justify” the allignment for each post here.
