mgs0008b221’s blog

I've migrated all my content from [http://www.systemroot.biz/] over to [http://mgs0008b221.wordpress.com/].

I know this is probably the umpteenth time I've changed sites/hosts/urls but I think this will be the last, or second to last for a while.

I have a few screens up at the moment, but more to come. Any questions on anything used in the afforementioned, just PM/IM/email me.

And by the way, could anyone offer advice as to whether or not I should buy a hosting package and jsut run WordPress on my own? Is the customizability worth it? Also, is there any way to add themes to the selection available from WordPress.com? Or customize (further than the dialog they give you) the ones that come default?

Edit: I try to keep the *****ing/whining/emo-ness down to a minimum, but sometimes it happens anyway. And the new editing system for A-S is awesome!

Edit 2: And to the asshole that rated this a one, have the balls to at least reply. People like you make me sick. In fact, I slapped someone like you today.

Stock skin.

404 main content error.

And the brown header is just bad...

Actually it's green, there are some color normalizers out there to help insure that everyone sees the same colors.

Anywho, I'm sticking with the stock skin atm because I can't customize any of them or install new ones, and it allows for the easiest navigation out of the ones you can choose from, which in my opinion is more important than looks, especially for what's probably going to end up a temporary site.

404 errors are the fault of wordpress.com, not mine.

I appreciate the criticism, jsut seems like you're a little quick to assume the worst. Especially considering you have no site to base quality suggestions on.

There's many skins to choose from, and it's cake to skin wordpress. So that shouldn't be a problem.

I was stating that there was a 404 error... Not trying to criticize your website.

As for your last comment, I wasn't assuming the worst, I was simply pointing out my oppinion. I stated the obvious. Stock skin, green header, and 404 error.

Sorry for the confusion, anywho, about the skinning, it's hosted on WordPress.com, not my own server, so the only skins I can use are the ones on their list. I can't install new skins, or modify existing ones, and since only two or three skins display your Pages section where it's easy to see, I chose one I could tweak the most (even though it is a small amount).

If in fact I _can_ add skins for WordPress.com, do tell me how. The only way I know of at the moment is to run WordPress itself on my own host instead of just creating a WordPress.com account.

Oh ok, I didn't know it was hosted by wordpress. I didn't even know that wordpress hosted sites.

If you want I can host wordpress 1.5, or 2.0 and give you ftp accesss.

Just throwing that out there.

Yah, I actually stumbled on it by going to WordPress.com instead of .org

But yah, I have indeed been looking for a host, when I get some money I'll send you a PM.

I am still getting a 404 error in the main box - when I click your link!

I updated the main post also. I guess it didn't like the brackets.

Don't worry about it. Consider it a 'favor'
