Introducing the New Face

Saturday, June 10, 2006


Yesterday, i had my hair cut, and i have a new look, and today i cut my blogs hair ? :p hehe jk :p today, i've changed the template on blogger, to mine :) and gave it a new look for you ;)

This was all part of my learning about CSS and JS and Layouting, etc. It was all inspired by Aditya, a rare smart boy you ever find ;) and in fact, my template code had his contribution on it ;) thanks alot Adit ;) you've been really helpfull.

And for the moment, i'm pretty satisfied for the new face i've had here ;) So for anybody who is wondering how the old one looks like, well it's on the left ;) i've get a hold of that template from searching on google :p maybe you would want to look it at the full size of the old template, here you go, you can click or right click to save as, here (size: 289k). And if you'd like to get a hold of the old template code then just drop me a message :)

Now i can be a little proud of having my own template eh :p
And i'm still on the process of making up the new face, hope it gets more good looking :)

[Update]: i've updated the blog's color, and position, in order to match my colorstrology a bit ;)


Lightbox JS v2.02

Thursday, June 01, 2006

Today i've try this cool javascript by Lokesh Dhakar called Lightbox JS v2.0


Quoting from the author :
Lightbox JS is a simple, unobtrusive script used to overlay images on the current page. It's a snap to setup and works on all modern browsers.

So, time for a little demo about this lightbox thing, when the javascript is ready then you can click on the picture and wait for a sec as the picture is loading ;)

[Update 2006-06-30]: Moved the demo page to googlepages ^^ you can click here to see the demo ;)

Blog Hacks

Tuesday, May 30, 2006

Blog Hacks was an interesting stuff to play with ;) Today i've put a lot of hacks into my blog.

The simple one is the so called 'Grammatically Correct Comment Count', which in this case are the numbers of comments about your post. If there are no post, then it would display 'No comment', if only 1 then it is not a plural so '1 comment', and the rest of course 'xx comments' (note the 's') where xx=number of posts. So here it is the simple code, you can put it inside the script tag, and the code can be tweaked later on your own, i've pick this one from Freshblog this site has a lot of hacks which you can implement on your blog. Thanks to anniebluesky for the piece of code she made ;)

The other one is the so-called 'Peek-a-boo Comments' from Blogger himself ;) And that's it i've tweaked the code so that both hacks can works ;) so maybe you can try it on your own or post a comment here :p

Well, then happy commenting ;)
