I’ve just spent nearly 3 hours fiddling with my site… with nothing to show for it.
After the fun I had playing with Photoshop yesterday, I wanted to see if there was another plugin that would display image galleries a little more nicely. I rather like the Simpleviewer plugin and thought I’d give it a shot. However…
I found that my current WP theme doesn’t really allow for much manipulation. I then thought, “heck, why not go for a new theme – I’ve had this one for a long time and something new might look nice”. Fast forward 20 minutes, and I still haven’t found a theme I was particularly fond of. So…
I thought I’d play around with the CSS files of my existing theme. Now, I know what CSS *is*, but I haven’t really used it aside from editing some existing themes on other websites in the past. After mucking around with the styles sheet, and various php pages (which, frankly, I know nothing about), I gave it up as a bad idea. I think at some point I’ll have to take the time to sit down and design a theme of my own, but that’s going to have to be at some later point down the road. Anyway…
I went back to see if other plugins would offer more flexibility, and I found several, installed them, tested them, but all didn’t play too well with the site (again, I think my current theme limits quite a bit).
I’ve decided to call it quits for now. 3 hours gone, and nothing to show for it… but hey, at least I didn’t break the site right? ..Right? *grumble*

I wondered what all that smoke was that I was smelling yesterday…thought I’d burned the bread, now I know it was your frustration!
One thing I noticed since yesterday is that when I go to post a comment, there’s a small spinning circle next to my website block that never stops. Not sure if that’s due to something here or your site. May not be related to my website, but that’s where it’s sitting and endlessly turning as if waiting for something to load.
