Website Housekeeping

toxic — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 13:14:34 +0000

It sounds odd, but I really enjoy it! Running a website, you need to pay attention to the little things, check that any links are still working and up to date, and making sure that stuff like the static pages aren’t out-dated.

Today I updated the About Me page, the About Random Fury! page (both minor [...]

Weddingfest gallery

toxic — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 07:00:10 +0000

For more details such as “Who’s who?” and “WTF is that picture all about?” go to the Weddingfest topic, as this is an image archive just in case Imageshack ever loses any of them. The photographs were taken by myself or Jane if there is no other name in the title of the file.

CAUTION! There [...]

E3 vs Lost – FIGHT!

toxic — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 10:27:27 +0000

Yesterday I posted links to two different subjects on GRcade, just to get a little traffic boost. One link was about E3, the other about Lost.

I was very surprised when I came on and saw that even though E3 is current and Lost finished ages ago, Lost came out on top with 29 hits. E3 [...]

Countdown to NEW Street Fighter / NEW Halo

It’ll be a busy week – Apparently there’s an election on soon too. Although why would I want a countdown to that?

New forum style – re-done!

toxic — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 16:58:23 +0000

So yeah, it’s been changed twice in less than a week now. The prosilverSE style wasn’t suitable, so we went with something a bit more like the old style in terms of layout. Overall, it’s much better, and apart from the code behind the banner being much stranger than I’m used to (and thus proving [...]

Cowboy boots

toxic — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 19:37:07 +0000

This week I have been mostly writing about Halo 2 and doing up the forum. It’s been a mixed bag in terms of feedback on it – some like the bold new colours, some prefer the muted tones of yesterday. You can’t please all of the people all of the time though. It’ll work out [...]

New forum style – done!

toxic — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 13:55:30 +0000

It didn’t take too long from me deciding enough was enough and it had to be changed to it being pretty much finished. As much as I love Mike Lothar’s phpBB2 styles, they just weren’t cutting it in phpBB3. Optimization was an issue, and we were missing out on a load of features that the [...]

Goodbye Halo 2

Dawn Of The Dead - Halo 2 style

Last night was the last time Halo 2 will ever be playable over Xbox Live. Personally, I didn’t attend (I got rid of Halo 2 ages ago – I never envisioned a time when we’d play it again), but I have spent the time being devoted to [...]

Karen Gillan is a popular search term then

toxic — Mon, 05 Apr 2010 16:59:05 +0000

Thanks crazy barefooted guy from this post! You secured me a couple of foot fetish “barefoot” searches. It was also pretty fortuitous that I smoke, as the word “cigarette” secured me some fag fetish clicks. I must also thank the guy or gal who clicked through because of the “lol cat doomsday” search, if only [...]

I had a couple of comments today

toxic — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 14:51:50 +0000

So, you know that post I made yesterday about having a job interview (it’s just below this one, scroll down a little)? Well I got a couple of comments on it from some spambots (pretending to be natural and not come across as spambots). Here, read the first one:

I really can’t understand some points of [...]

Currently ranked 13th in the World

toxic — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:19:47 +0000

Oh wow, would you look at that. We’re the 13th best source for LOLcats on the internet!

Not bad considering all I do is copy and paste my weekly favourite from icanhazcheesburger.

Sunday Service: I live with morons?

toxic — Sun, 27 Dec 2009 17:55:09 +0000

Do I? I didn’t think I did, but apparently I do.

I did not know this, but apparently when I take my socks off, one comes off inside out, the other comes off “the right way”. Now, this has, as far as I know, never ever been a problem. But the other night, I was told [...]

Merry Christmas!

Jane and I would like to wish everyone who reads this a very Merry Christmas.

Eat too much, drink too much, spend too much on your loved ones. It’s Christmas.
