...the level of frivolity seems to be at a low ebb around here at the moment, but I am busily renovating my little grass shack in Munivia and it's been a slow process, being that I don't know how to use a computer or anything.
For whatever reason, I have very particular tastes about how I think this pile of crap should look--has to be Garamond, has to be big enough for me to read it comfortably at my desk, has to be shades of gray, and I like having all the links up at the top. In the new place, things will look similar, but not, and I have yet to figure out a clean way to get the blogroll in the banner. I know I could--eventually--but that'll probably take way more time than I'm willing to invest. So that might change.
Which means I'm gonna have a lot of niggledy fiddly work to do to copy the links and take out the vertical line spacers and code between each one. AND I STILL HAVE PAYING WORK I HAVE TO GET DONE! AAAAGGHHHH!!
If you want to see what the new place looks like--REMEMBERING THAT IT WILL CONTINUE TO CHANGE THROUGHOUT THE DAY--you can go to possumblog.mu.nu., and feel free to leave a comment.
(It is interesting to note that now that I am making a move elsewhere, Blogger has been trouble-free. If they were just trying to drive me away, there were certainly easier ways to tell me. Maybe a card or something.)
AND, I do like the extended entry feature. Very spiff. It's like turning it up to 11 or something.
Anyway.

Posted by: MarcV at April 5, 2005 09:41 AMCareful, Marc--remember what the Good Book says--"the last shall be first, and the first shall be last."
I'm not sure if that applies to blog comments, though.
Posted by: Terry Oglesby at April 5, 2005 09:47 AMI had the same experience with moving from Blogger. Just the same, welcome to MuNu! I'm certainly glad I made the move.
Posted by: RP at April 5, 2005 09:53 AMWhy, thank you, RP! I appreciate the welcome. So far, it's really not bad--just the normal teething pains. MT seems to be pretty robust, so I'm hoping it will be a good move. Surely more stable than Blogger/BlogSpot.

Posted by: Kathy at April 5, 2005 10:46 AMThat was my attempt at a Scrappleface imitation.
For some reason all of the mu-nu blogs I visit do not remember my personal info, so for every comment I have to re-enter the info [and I have clicked on the "remember personal info" Yes button, smart-aleck]. Now, I'm not going to complain about all that typing work like a certain teenage girl, I'm just sayin' is all.
Posted by: MarcV at April 5, 2005 11:05 AMI know, Marc--I was just teasing. As for the comments, this seems to be a common complaint. I have to rewrite my info as well. I will ask one of the cool kids what you have to do to make this work right.
Posted by: Terry Oglesby at April 5, 2005 11:20 AMI'll take a look at the remembering-people problem. There is a problem with the way mu.nu is set up (which can't be fixed completely without re-arranging everything), but it should still remember people who've commented on your blog before.
P.S. Yay! Welcome to munu!
