Meet the new blog, same as the old blog

I hope you have “Won’t Get Fooled Again” from The Who in your head. This blog has had a major makeover and there’s more to come. I hope you like it.

We upgrade our operating systems, databases, and everything else – it was time to update this blog to the latest release, and to give it a facelift to boot. This WordPress blog is now at release 2.8 and I’ve changed the theme (see bottom of pages for credits).

You will need to login again to refresh your browser cookies. I’ve made a number of code changes to ensure that functionality hasn’t been lost, and there are a lot of things that still need to be tweaked. But please let me know if you see something weird or have difficulties navigating or finding anything. I had issues with the MySQL database so if you can’t login or something else seems wrong with your account then please let me know via e-mail.

In addition to getting improved security, the page now allows for wider text, which means list boxes and code blocks won’t wrap so quickly, and there’s more room for screenshots. You can select whether you want a narrow or wide page format by clicking the Option Normal or Large link at the top of the page.
