How to be a Short Term Worker
With the right attitude, the life as a temporary worker is exciting and refreshing. It is filled with new things and challenges every day. You have control over where and when you work. You can stay for as long as you want and leave when you want, depending upon your contract. On the flip side, […]
List of CSS Found Within Which WordPress Files
In order to make any adjustments to the HTML of your new WordPress site and Theme, you have to find the references to the styles in the php code of each page section. In WordPress 1.2, this was easy because most of the information was found in the index.php page. With WordPress 1.5, everything is […]
Views of a Web Page
Web pages aren’t viewed by everyone equally. We’ve taken one of our web pages and passed it through some tests to resize, reshape, mash, smash, shrink, expand, and mess with our design. If you are going to experiment with CSS, or even if you are just designing a simple Theme or web page layout, you […]
Photographing the Wind
The car door slammed, frustration evident not only in his body language but expression. "Trouble?" Brent deposited the camera into my lap and shook off his hat. "The damn wind." I looked outside at the field of wild daisies and sure enough, they were dancing around in the wind, white waves upon green stems. "You’re […]
WordPress Theme Tweaks and Twitches
I’ve been poking at this WordPress Theme of mine for a few days and all the little nitpicky stuff is getting me down. There are a lot of major and minor things to clean up. And I’m totally not happy with how FireFox is handling my old layout. In fact, I’m disgusted with my old […]
Working on the CSS and WordPress Theme
With the move to WordPress v1.5, things are a little more challenging for creating a CSS file. As I mentioned, the header, footer, index page, and other elements are now divided up into pages which are “included” in the main index.page. A div or class will start in one template file and finish in another, […]
File Downloading – Avoiding the Bug and Viruses

Installing WordPress 1.5 and Modifying It
Wouldn’t you know it. Here I am, working my buns off to learn how to use WordPress, importing massive old articles into the database, playing around with a test site, and I’m about ready to make it go public, and WordPress releases not only a new version, but a humdinger of a new version. It […]
Learning More About WordPress
I’ve been making a plan, and checking it twice, going to find out if I’m naughty or nice….you know the routine. The effort to convert my site from static HTML to interactive database, specifically into WordPress, has been extremely educational. In other words, I’m learning more than enough about things I wish I didn’t know. […]
Importing Into WordPress with the Import-mt
I finally got the import-mt.php import file that comes with the default WordPress installation to work. Whew! What a long and hard ride, but I learned a lot and I hope you will find some lessons here, too. Some of the following information might be a little redundant, but if you are finding this page […]
Deciding Where and When to Go During the Seasons
When a photographer is planning a trip, season plays a big part in the decision-making process. There are unique photographic opportunities specifically related to weather and the seasons: fall colors, winter whites, spring flowers, summer heat. The seasons come at different times to different locations. Fall colors begin in late August and early September for […]
The Art of Navigation – Maps, Tracks and Getting Lost
We have every kind of map you can imagine for our life on the road. Street maps, local maps, fold-out maps, computerized maps (two different programs!), maps in books, maps on backs of flyers and, our personal favorite, hand drawn maps from people we meet along the way with a locale in mind that we […]
