1. It always pisses me off

    October 6, 2008 by Cherise

    It allways makes me made when I work hard on a layout and Internet Explorer screws it up for me.  I don’t work on this site as much as a probably should but damn does it piss me off because I do have SOME visitors.

    I worked VERY hard and I mean VERY hard on this layout to make it work in Internet Explorer 7 since many people use it and for a time it looked OK. it had some things shifted here and there because of Internet Exloerers horrible web standards but then I saw that they had come out with an Internet Exloerer 8.  I was happy I heard that they were getting better with their web-standards and that things that work in ALL the other BROWSERS like Firefox and Opera would work fine in this new one. So I upgraded thinking I’d finely see my website look half way decent. And guess what?

    Wait for it.

    Wait for it…

    IT WENT BACK TO LOOKING LIKE IT DID BEFORE I PUT ALL THIS EXTRA CODING IN TO MAKE IT LOOK NICE IN INTERNET EXLOERER IN THE FIRST FREAKING PLACE.  Those bastards.

    Its depressing.

    I know no one from Microsoft will read this and I know they probably don’t care but you guys make the jobs for the people who design and create the Internets lives living hell with your web-standards being the way they are. I’d be nice if you’d study the other web browsers and learn from them some on how to at least make it somewhat updated. So that I can use lists properly and other fairly simple stuff look like it should. I shouldn’t have to design a website that looks good in all the other browsers then take the dreaded trip over to my Internet Explorer icon to see how horrible it looks and how long it’ll take me to get it looking fairly reasonable.

    I know I’m not the best web designer or the best coder but I’m pretty damn creative when it comes to fixing problems with a design. But you guys just kill it stomp it in to the ground and then let your dog pee on it.


  2. Opening

    April 10, 2008 by Cherise

    Though I still have a few things to do around the site its pretty much ready to be opened. Wordpress gave me a hard time this time around but ether way it still works better than most content managers.

    So what to expect from this site? Tutorials, reviews of new web trends, and other little things. As well as my personal portfolio.
