Sat, 20 Aug 2011 00:36:43 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Web site updated. http://lukep.net/2010/03/14/web-site-updated/ http://lukep.net/2010/03/14/web-site-updated/#comments Sun, 14 Mar 2010 08:11:24 +0000 Lukep http://lukep.net/?p=420 I re-themed this thing today. I picked up the Canvas theme by WooThemes and customized it to fit my needs.

I wanted to go back to a white background with dark text. Easier to read. I also wanted two columns in the sidebar. Not sure why, just something I wanted to try.

Overall, it’s lightweight and everything loads fast. There’s no major graphical overhead on this site layout.

The Canvas theme was really easy to modify to my needs. It’s basically a theme that has a lot of built in customization possibilities, and it’s easy to configure and put together a nice looking site very quickly.

I like it.

Here’s a good page that will help you get a better grasp on multi-browser testing of your websites.

The site uses a neat screen shot request grouping mechanism to fetch all sorts of different browser screen shots of your web site. Browsing through the rendered images that have been returned is easy as well.

Straight from the php.faqts knowledge base:

There is a difference between the two, but speed-wise it should be
irrelevant which one you use.

Here’s a quick article about preventing this issue.

It’s always best to have another quick source for grabbing your ftp accounts.

  • Keep a spreadsheet of all your ftp accounts.
  • Or keep a text file.
  • Or write them on a sheet of paper and keep it in a fireproof safe next to your desk.

Also, keep account information safe and secure.

I guess what I’m really trying to say is that you should not depend on an application like Dreamweaver to remember all your account information in a reliable manner. Use something else.

Maybe try this password archiving application?
