• This is my first blog ever! I just did my first post last week and have 4 up now.

    It seems to be working OK, but mostly just bots have been posting to it which kind of bums me out.

    I did get an award on digg.com for getting one of my articles read though, which was cool.

    Would you take a look at https://readthisshit.com

    and tell me if I’ve set up everything OK and how you think it looks?

    Any pointers would be appreciated!

    Thanks!

  • Heh, at least you have more comments than my site. :/ I get like 30 spam comments a day..then I realized akismet was actually eating real comments and I had like 8! woot!

    As for your site, I like the layout..tho I think your title/header is a tad..spammish looking? (not sure if that’s a word). I.E. Looks like a generic store website for spam sites.

    What’s the white square above your calendar supposed to have in it? (just curious)

    Anyways, found your site rather fun to look at, just take a look at the header and see if you can find something fun..maybe like a big cursive version of your title?

    Wow, i totally shouldn’t post when i am on no sleep. You do have a cursive header….but i was thinking more stretched across…and remove your face from it. ?? (maybe instead you can have your face appear on any posts you post as the “author” picture)

    Hi Synfidie. Thank you for taking a look!

    I have heard some feedback that I could do something better with the header. I need to figure out what to do. The way you’ve got your header laid out looks pretty cool, off to the side. Maybe I should do something like that?

    I am a bit worried that some kind of a spam solution may cut down on real comments, so that’s why I haven’t done anything yet. Plus, I guess I’d be lonely without the spambots since I get so few real comments. ??

    Ah, the white square above my calendar. And the white rectangles under each post. That’s a little “YOU STINK” from the folks at Google Adsense who kept my link ads and banner ads in “New” status for a week without serving any ads then changed the status to “Idle” because they’d gotten no impressions in a week. (Yes Google, if you don’t serve any ads, they will get no impressions.)

    I guess I’d be lonely without the spambots since I get so few real comments. ??

    LOL..That statement really made my day. You got a great sense of humor. I am sure you will do amazing.

    Thank you for the encouragement, southcast, but I think most of my comments are from Bots.

    I shouldn’t discriminate so much, I suppose we’ll probably all be replaced by Bots someday. I just wish they had more to say than, “today I explore the internet for 4 hours and come to your article which has the technical I was looking for!” ??

    I wanted to ask Mandrake7062 if he upgraded to 3.4 and/or if anyone else did?

    I’m still too timid to do it.

    No, pretty lady, I haven’t. I don’t even have a large website, just a handful of models I’ve been working on. I just don’t have time to sift through the manual fixes that may or may not have to be done.

    I will probably get to do it next month when I have some free time on my hands. All I can say is do a backup before doing anything.
