I signed up for the Typepad Design Consultation Service to get some help in fixing up a few design elements of this blog, notably the banner and perhaps some content elements. The goal: bring the websites and the blog into some sort of sync with each other.
Poor Typepad Design. They like to get their hands into a blog and really go to town. You can see some of their Portfolio examples here. Not exactly my cuppa sleepy time tea. My CSS and HTML/XML skills are so rusty even a vinegar bath wouldn't help, so it's off to get some assistance from the people I pay a yearly hosting fee to.
In the meantime, more trimming the excess luggage on the websites and the blog, more preparation for adding lots of new stuff and more throwing out lots of bags of things I wonder where they came from in the first place.
Do you realize how fast USB cords reproduce in the dark?
Till next, Gary
