Shine on you crazy diamond

The title, doesn't really tell you anything apart from the track I'm currently listening to and my complete lack of imagination for a catchy post title.

I'm back as you can probably tell from the fact that you're here, reading this. The last few months have been pretty hectic but I've finally gotten most things back on track. When I say most things I dont actually mean most things, I really mean a few things and in regards to other things well they can wait until I'm good and ready.

So. Love, Life and Work, two out of three aint bad, yep, life and work are going well.

I has a new design, the main template is by Gordon Mac and available for free download from his site. I've edited most of the images, and parts of the layout. As well as started from scratch on a new system to run it all.

It generally works in the same way as the old system with a few additions and alterations. The comments system now loads into the same page as the post so no more pop up windows, and I've added a captcha image (I'm aware that the code sometimes appears too low down and I'm working to fix it, as well as allowing some form of syntax for formatting and links).

I've also gone down the popular route of tagging all my posts. Tags are in single word format and work much like a search function (which I will be adding soonish), clicking them takes you to a list of posts tagged under that keyword. Simple.

Quick snips on the right are clickable and should open to the source site. The links are ordered by popularity so the link with the most clicks will appear at the top and in order downwards. And 10 posts here before the archives start to fill up.

The rest is pretty much fool proof (I hope).

I'm planning on adding a few more things on here, and as I let the legalize site go (just didn't have the time) may create a subdomain with the essentials of what I want to get accross.

I'm thinking of categorising the articles and accepting user submissions. I'm not too sure as yet but its a thought in the pipeline. let me know what you think, categories and subjects of interest to you etc.

Thats about it for the time - You can go.

Cheers dude. hopefully it means things are finally getting back to normal!!

Moving sucks matey, but its well worth it in the long run(3 years since the last move and not planning on another one anytime soon), specially since its YOUR home.

I had 5 months of dial up when i moved in here, took em that long to install the cable, and I worked for them at the time - in the MD office no less, and still couldnt get any joy.

Hope it all goes well for you mate.

You has been infected I repeat You has been infected and your system files has been deletes. Sorry. Have a Nice Day and bye bye.

The comments are continuously deleted as the Trojan attempts to delete the entire content of the computer's hard disk, according to an analysis of the malware by anti-virus firm Panda Software.
