Along the same lines as my previous post, SliverNet is now offering Game Servers. Details are still to come but if you are looking for a game server for Half-Life or Half-Life 2 Mods, check us out and give us a try. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Well it’s official, I am now in the WordPress Hosting business. My company, SliverNet, that I am a partner in, is now offering blog hosting using WordPress for only $4.95 a month. Not a bad deal if you ask me. So if you are reading this and you don’t have a blog yet (you know who you are), get off the stick and go and sign up now.
Just a reminder to myself — Bring in the Austin Powers DVD’s for Pat.
RE: Earth Theme – Moved archives and links to their own pages and brought back the recent comments. The sidebar isn’t quite as long any more. Now I just need to make an “About” page and hook up the button to it.
Thanks to Jill, I now have 4 banners for the ‘Earth’ theme I’ve been working on. I slapped a little code in there to randomly choose 1 of the 4 to be displayed. See if you can figure out the hidden meaning of the banners and I’ll give you a free Gmail account… or I’ll just give you one if you ask, I have 50 for crying out loud.
So I’ve began making a new theme. I call it ‘Earth’. Don’t know why, I guess because it has some “earthy” tones to it. You can watch my progress if you would like by using the theme-switcher. Not all of my links and pages are are integrated into it yet so look out for “under construction” behavior.
Thanks to the WordPress Plugin Repository I now have a “Theme Switcher”. Currently there are only the two defaults and my “Whoppers” theme. But I think I’m going to start making a few of these. Maybe if they’re good enough, someone out there will even want to use it.
Update: I added a bunch of themes that I found. They need a little tweaking to get my site name in them. But I’ll get to that when I can.
I just upgrade Wordpress to 1.5. Overall, wasn’t very hard to do. I did have to turn off a couple functions that seem to have changed (ie recent comments and recent entries). But I’m sure there are some logical replacements for those, I just need to figure them out.
One of the biggest differences is the fact that there are templates now. So rather than editing the live index file, I can create a seperate template to mess with and not screw up what already works. So maybe it is time for a change. I’ll have to do some thinking now.
Update: I fixed the two functions that I mentioned didn’t work. So now I think everyting is working.
Ok, so I’m one of the lucky many who now have 50 invites to hand out for Gmail. Does anyone want one? Just drop me an email at snarfblatt AT gmail DOT com. No questions asked, the first 50 to respond, will get an invite.
Have a nice day. 
Update: only 47 left
