the new look.

well. im kinda bored now as the last week or two i have been doing my animation assignment which did not go to well might i add thus i now have all this free time so i decided to create a new look for my blog. it took a while cause i needed to delete a few codes from the html codes for the blogger backgrounds and add a few in that i created.


but i think it looks better as its different and you can read the text which is also a bonus!
i didnt include a title as it just looked wrong with the image that i put there!

at first i had a black background which is below in the screenshot but decided it was too dark for my likeing so i changed it to white!



so untill i get bored again it will stay the same.

WE LOVE SOUNDS!

yesturday my bestie steph and i ventured out to fox studios australia for the amazing and most well known music festival called we love sounds! it was a really good day and i saw many people that i hadnt seen in a while whilst also meeting new people!


the only bad thing that happened throughout the day was my friend steph droped her phone in the toliet and then her bf put her sim card in his phone which fucked his phone up as well! good times good times!

i was hanging out to see tiga. and when i heard 'sunglasses at night' i was in sheer bliss. its my fav. song thus we all just danced the night away!


soon to have some photos on flickr soon.

mpi104 : week 12 : tweaking templates/html

previously my blog was very busy but jo kept talking about it which at first i didn't mind but then i started to freak out so i changed my aesthetics of my blog.

so what i had before was a pre-made template that everyone can use from bloggers options. then i changed the size of the font and the type of the text also the colours. i made my title 'erin.' really large and in red which is like what it is now. i also uploaded an image to flickr and put it in the html. codes it took me a little bit to work out where i needed to delete the old background so i could insert the new one. but i managed to work it out.

the problem with my old template is that it made the text hard to read. which i was cool about cause i had nothing really interesting to say and i cannot write very well! anyway jo always commented on it so i decided to take out the background which has made it easier to read the different posts that i have created.

i feel that my template that i have created is very simple but its also very individual.


just to note . html stands for.

Hypertext Markup Language.

i had no idea thus i thought i would share with everyone.

just to update you on my technorati numbers:

authority: 9
rank: 587297

so thats pretty good i reckon.

a case of mistaken identity.

there's nothing worse than thinking you recognise a friend in public and greeting them enthusiastically, only to realise its actually a complete stranger. unless, of course, you're that stranger. here are some graceful ways to handle both ends of the stick:


for the misrecogniser:
- 'sorry, i think i need new glasses!'
- 'you see, im so in love with my new boyfriend i see him everywhere!'
- 'hi, i represent an agency for people who look like my friends. wanna sign up?'

for the misrecognised:
- 'sorry. but if i see her i'll say hi.....im sure i'll recognise her!'
- 'oh, and i thought i had the perfect disguise!'
- 'thank goodness you didnt mistake me for a hat!'
