After changing my main domain name from Parkzer.co.cc to Parkzer.com, I decided to redesign my web­site’s layout as well. After building the basic design, I started spreading the news of my new website layout around and asked for people to suggest improvements. I got a handful of ideas, and started building a list.

The following list shows the ideas I received and the things I still have left to do:

  • Find a better color than vomit yellow for the links. (What about vomit purple? Just kidding)
  • Fix .htaccess forwarding for the other domains. (Someone help me with this, it won’t work)
  • Turn all the external links into graphic advertisements, and get rid of the external links section.
  • Pre-resize the advertisement images instead of resizing on-the-fly.
  • Copy the advertisement images onto this server to reduce the number of outside connections.
  • Get rid of the animations on the advertisements in the sidebar, they’re annoying.
  • Change the navigation button container to make it seem more fitting. (Changed buttons instead)
  • Add more background colors so the same background appears twice consecutively less often.
  • Create two more columns at the bottom and move all social networking stuff down there.
  • Add a watermarked Twitter bird to the top right corner of the Latest Tweets box.
  • Split the newest pages section to newest blog posts and newest content.
  • Extend the number of items in each ‘Newest’ box to ten.
  • Make a dynamic subheader for FMiMHv2 and LOLWTF, similar to the one already on the RS pages.
  • Make the Justin White advertisement open the page in a new tab instead of this one.
  • Increase the opacity of the text on the yellow navigation buttons. (No longer applies)
  • Get rid of the empty white box at the bottom.
  • Automatically import non-linked tweets from Twitter instead of adding them manually. (Too hard)
  • Fix the Misc. Resources -> Spyware Protect 2009 page’s formatting.
  • Create a ‘The Best of the Best’ page that has the funniest and most popular blog articles.
  • Make the Home navigation button link to / instead of /index.
  • Change the color scheme of the navigation buttons to be more consistent.
  • Put in lightning the background for the ‘Newest’ boxes. (Tried, looks random and not very good)
  • Replace the word ‘Twitter’ with the logo in the Latest Tweets box. (Tried, looks out of place)
  • Link the word Blog in the ‘Newest Blog Entries’ box to the blog archive page.
  • Compress the navigation button images. (Done, they went from ≈20 KB each to ≈2 KB each.)

Let me know if you have a suggestion to add to the list.

Come back later to check on my progress.

It’s actually two-day-old crusted Yoplait yogurt that’s holding that spoon up to the top of the container.

But I sometimes like to pretend that I’m using magic to keep it up there.

Magical powers are cool.

Don’t judge me.

This mentally disabled kid named Bob decided to come to the library today during one of my free periods. After a while, I noticed his presence, and someone told me that he claimed that he was psychic. He was going around to a few tables in the library and attempting to prove his powers.

I think this is a good time to mention that this Bob kid has a history of blatantly hitting on girls.

Back to the story. To prove that he was psychic, he asked us to ask him any questions, and he claimed that he could answer them by looking at us.

He gave wrong answers to about 95% of the questions we asked him.

After thoroughly humiliating himself, he went on to a different table, where he was utterly owned again by another group of people. To make it worse, one of the people at the table had an interest in religion and the theory of existence, and started wtfpwning Bob and his psychic powers. Bob left that table in further humiliation and came back to the table I was at.

He then offered to look into the future and do a "palm reading."

I think the better term for this was "hitting on and holding the hand of an attractive girl."

According to Bob, her future spouse will have light green eyes.

During commons today, a few of my friends and I wrote a story about a princess named Frunk (the past tense of Frank) who had a beard and enjoyed pleasuring herself. She got bitten by a spider that gave her magical powers that let her shoot ninjas into space, and she had a friend that had pink pubic hair.

This is how we waste our lives.

I’ve decided to become a bit more active again with regard to creating new online content, and thought I would participate in the Daily Shoot assignment more often again (seeing as it’s online content). Here’s the one from today:

Daily Shoot #177

"What tools do you use and appreciate on a daily basis? Make an interesting photo of one such tool today."

I use pens and pencils on a daily basis, and I appreciate them because I can use them when I’m bored during class to handwrite new content for my website that I can type up at a later time.

And of course, the picture had to be somewhat interesting, so I grabbed three pens and pencils instead of just one of each, and made some sort of shape that looks like the Bermuda Triangle.

This is a picture of the inside of my school bus that I took from the back of the bus a while ago that I found when I was scrolling through old pictures. I somehow decided that now would be a good time to share it.
