Assessment#2 Blog Post
Well, where to begin?...
**I have finished going through the check-list with no hiccups this time, so there's no point posting it!**
BLOGGER
As you can see I have made drastic changes to the layout of my blog, as told in this post and this one too.
I like my new header image! ^^^
I think the changes increases the interestingness and aesthetics of my blog, but would still be better suited if I was a girl or perhaps a girly-boy. This is the case because after editing my blog I realised that the clouds and light blue colours of my blog could be view as if it were a child's bedroom, which is not exactly what I was aiming for. However I don't believe that my blog is an eyesore, just not suited to my personality. (PS: I don't think Erin's blog is that bad).
My blog is still fully functional and I have kept most of my page elements in the same place as I believe they work best in the current positions.
I have also completed all the requirements regarding Technorati, however I still find it to be little-to-no use for me (but that's just a personal thing :P).
FLICKR
What better way to start my rant on flickr but with a picture? (and what a great picture it is!!!)
I have uploaded over the required amount of 30 photo's to flickr, but have not upload much more then that, as I would rather my pictures and flickr account be about quality, not quantity. Most of my interesting images have been "pushed" to the MPI104-2007 group
There's not that much else to say about flickr, but you should check out my favorites page (hope you like BMWs!).
Oh, and i added "notes"(the notes that appear inside the image) in some of my aesthetic related images. Like this one:
DELICIOUS
There is not much to say about my del.icio.us account, except that I have done what was required of me, incorporated it as part of my work flow, and that you should check it out if you like webcomics!
IN SUMMARY
When I started this subject I didn't update my accounts too frequently as I usually only go on the net once a week, but after getting more involved in the MPI104 class I have integrated my blog, flickr and delicious accounts into my normal study/workflow. (Instead of trying to update them all in one go!)
Well that's it! Hope I haven't forgotten anything.
Thanks for a good semester and thanks for bringing INTERESTINGNESS to our classes!!!

Tweaking...again
Just Tweaked my blog again!!!
I figured the clouds in the background would be too annoying/distracting when trying to read the text.
So now I fused one template with my new one so I can have most things the same, but with different borders (that are also opaque). I've still gotta fix up the corners though......

Tweaking; HTML + Templates
Wow, just finished tweaking my blog and my it's looking sexy.....well actually it looks cute :|
.......and that's not too good of a thing to have when ur a guy.... oh wells
its got a new header, a new background made up of lots of these:
it kinda makes it looks like a babies room, but thats not too bad. anyways I want my blog looking like it currently does, its kinda relaxing....
I also played around with the html a little, but mainly kept the font how it is because its readable.
Take a look around, NOW!!!

Counter
I am currently using the "Free Counters" counter, which is located at the VERY BOTTOM of my blog. I chose this because it was the first counter site that came up when I was looking to ad one for the first assessment.
At the time of posting this post I have had 56visits and 160hits.
I do not find having a counter to be very useful because I'm not that interested in how many people visit by blog. The only main thing that interests me is being able to compare my visits with other people doing the MPI104 subject.
About my visitors:
Here's a little table of where my visitors are referred from.
NB: The 23 visits from "Wejście bezpośrednie" is a non-existent site. (I'm assuming that it means the visitors came straight to my blog).
My counter can also tell me other random pieces of information like:
What resolution my blog is being viewed at.
What operating system is being used to view my blog.
What browser is being used to view my blog.
Those stats are informative, but utterly useless to me, just thought I'd tell you guys :P
