Jeff’s Darn Blog

Yeah I’m still alive. Went to a concert last night and realized that I am just too old for this stuff. We had tickets for up front in the “pit” area. I should have known I was in trouble when I read the bracelet they put on my wrist. It said “entering moshing area is at own risk”. Moshing area? I just wanted to be by the stage.
 
 I had my camera and wanted to get some good shots of everyone. That did not work out as planned. I soon bailed out to the back of the pit area, where it was a little “safer”. I still got some photos, but they are not nearly as good as I could have gotten up front. But at what cost?
 
I did have a good time but I also slept most of today away, considering I have to go to work in a few hours.

I am still changing things. This one was necessary unlike some of the cosmetic changes. I had to change my photoblog software. As much as I liked PixelPost, it had a fatal flaw. It was very susceptible to referrer spam. I was getting hammered and it was taking it’s toll on the database server. I had to empty the table once a week or risk going over my quota, it was that bad. I even tried a plug in they had that was supposed to help, it didn’t.
 
Anyway, what I have basically is just another wordpress install with a photoblog template. It is going to take some getting used to and I will lose all the comments I had on the previous stuff but sacrifices must be made sometimes.

I actually remembered to post one of the pics for the SpongeBob Home tour 2005 so here he is with the new ride!

Poo, I broke my upload on here. I hate doing things manually but I have to please my readers, both of you!

Awhile back I had my first experience with Qumana. At the time it wasn’t perfect but it was darn good and the support was outstanding.  Arieanna even took the time to comment on one of my posts when I was whining about a picture upload problem.(I am a bit of a whiner aren’t I?) Anyway that was version 1, welcome to Qumana version 2.
 
To say I am impressed would be an understatement. I used to hand code web pages with notepad and when they first introduced WYSIWYG designers I was all over it. No more having to try and try again to get placement just right. What Dreamweaver did for HTML Qumana is doing for blogging.
 

Here are just a few of it’s many features:

 ability to insert HTML

 post-centric keyword-based ad insertion

WYSIWYG interface

       and much more…

Overall I highly recommend Qumana to anyone who prefers writing their posts offline or wants to see what their post is going to look like before they post. Oh and as an added benefit you can save, ever had your browser crash or just lost an entire post into the ether? Saving alone should be reason enough to download Qumana.

Download it today so I can stop sounding like an infomercial!
