User-friendly Tweaks
May 19, 2007
Yay, my brother has finally finished doing the tweaks that I planned out a few weeks back. These tweaks are designed to make this place a bit more user friendly. Its still not perfect but its still the most significant update since the release.
Here’s a run down of what has changed:
-modified site header
-modified site title now: PrimeScape – Games, Design, Life
-Technorati +fav button in the right coloumn
-new contact page with a form
-new subscribe category with little RSS images
-Blogroll has gone underneath Subscribe
-Some stuff has been removed from Meta
-Search has been moved over to the archives area
-MyBlogLog widget has been added
-links are now easily distinguishable
-an Opera tag has been added to the bottom of the page
-Add RSS sentence added to each post
-huge RSS logo has been removed
-the gap between the title and the entry has been reduced
-the comment relish plugin has been installed, need to test that one
I’m very happy with this update as it should hopefully encourage a greater readership and it also makes the site look much more complete. Although Chris hasn’t gotten everything perfect, all shall be fixed in due time. But for the time being its a very welcomed update. In terms of future updates there isn’t really too much beyond admin and a few other plugins and tweaks that probably won’t be noticed.
The site is going well with hits this month, we are looking at being on track with last month. Which is good because most of the hits from last month were from tutorial indexers. I’d be interested in what you think of the changes, so drop us a comment or send me an email via the new Contact form.

Some Links will Never Change
May 15, 2007
Hey folks, I’ve got a pile of links and stuff to post about so lets get into it.
Last weekend wasn’t too bad I had a haircut, did a brief bit of shopping and had mothers day on the Sunday. I was really happy with my new haircut, got my fav hairdresser this time. Its just a shorter version of the same old, with a bit more left at the back.
Just the way I like it.
Chris picked up a few CDs on the weekend:
Eyes Open Snow Patrol
Minutes to Midnight Linkin Park
Black Fingernails Red Wine Bonus edition Eskimo Joe
I haven’t listened to Eskimo Joe yet as I’m not really interested. Eyes Open is okay but I think that the album doesn’t deserve as much popularity. I guess I’m already faithful to other bands of the same genre.
Minitues to Midnight is very interesting. Its very alternative, I like it..probably less so than LPs previous albums. But thats not because its bad, I don’t think that LP have hit the mark with this one. And I rekon that they know it. They seem to still be searching for their new sound. Saying this I love Bleed it out and Hands held high they have such excellent lyrics and definetly deserve major kudos.
There are two songs that I want to link out to. Specifically I want to link out to a song that I’ve been interested for a long time but have only now gotten around to listening to it again.
That is the song Changes by 2Pac. Its such an inspiring song, I’ve the song in my head for at least a week. I’ll try and keep an eye out for his Greatest Hits CD so I can pick that up.In anycase check out the clip:
The other clip I wanted to show is from the new Finger Eleven CD, catchy song and impressive video, I like the new direction. I just have to hunt down the CD as it get such a limited release down here IMO.
On a few last words I got a B for my Capsicum Planet Brochure which I am happy with. I’ll have some more featured entries soon. Thanks for reading. DP

Hot Tequilla Brown

Most listened Black Capricorn Day – Jamiroquai
Most played Mario and Luigi Partners in Time(DS)
This week I am feeling (continously) more happy with myself. I’ve managed to catch up with friends more so this week so I’m really pleased.Last Friday Chris and I (finally) joined Cam at this games group that they have at Uni. I reckon that we’ll prolly do that for a few hrs every week from now on as we all had a great time. Really brings out that gaming pride in you.
Things have also clicked into place nicely at my other Uni. I really enjoy going there as I get on really well with the people in my program. Its such a friendly environment. Although this weeks homework is totally mind numbingly annoying. I can’t stop putting it off. Argh!
Beyond that I’ve managed to do a bit of every thing this week. I’ve finally sat down and started reading my cameras manual. Look forward to taking some happy snaps. I’ve also gather more materials to help PrimeScape’s readership. I am not expecting as many hits this month as(last month) most of the hits were from tutorial indexers. Instead I am focusing on building up a stronger readership.
There should be a slight re-arrangement of Primescape in the coming weeks, I have everything set up I just need Chris to implement them. Its a lot of small tweaks that will make the site better.
Umm yeah I think thats all for this week. Oh wait I finished a template for a client, you’ll see that one later on. I’ve also been meaning to blog more but I have been pretty busy, this is only likely to worsen in the coming weeks, unfortunately.
