Some Of The Things We Talk About
I’m having a world of trouble trying to prove my Company is real so I can get a Code Signing Certificate.
Since it was created, we’ve moved residence and it’s name has changed. These two events have combined to form an impenetrable logic barrier for the people I’m talking to.
In other news .. Well there’s a bit.
Night night.

Some Of The Things We Talk About
It’s time to refresh the site. This current theme has been pretty much this way since conception, with a few alterations and mods along the way.
Back when I just blogged on Dev Dawn, I went through numerous theme changes. Which was fun.
Just this week I booked into the Revolution. Actually, the Revolution 2, Brian Gardner’s brainchild. So now I’ve got a bunch of very cool themes to work with.
I’m not a designer. That’s pretty obvious to any thing with an eye and a brain to interpret the signals transmitted :) So what I like about a package like found in the Revolution 2 offering is that there’s enough diversity in the content to allow me to have choice, AND it’s wordpress, so I know it’s infinitely (for my L-plate skills) moddable.
Another perk, I’m hoping, of the re-design is that it will somehow grant me the ability to write less posts, but more .. potent. We’ll see.
Maybe not less posts, as less pretty much describes the flow of content here lately.
You might remember this post, in which I pontificated about the six month sabbaticals that we’d (the Family) be taking from purchasing games.
Well, the first six / 6 months has cycled round.
And you know what, this Discipline isn’t going away. It’s hard, but well worth it.
It’s not just about saving money.
You remove (unless it’s at the turn of the cycle) the “impulse buy”. It’s out of the equation. In the last month, I’ve definitely started thinking about which particular games I’ll want to buy. Taking time, reading reviews, measuring things up .. It’s different, but so far, as said, worth it.
Course, there are probably lots of folk who already do this, or don’t play games at all. That’s cool. This is just a personal (and Family I guess, could go down the road of Raising the Kids into a certain way with Games) journey.
Haven’t even got around to talking about how, in my last post, I was all braggy about writing a post a day. It’s been exactly 20 days and not a thing. Ha ha, that’ll learn me.

This time we add System Tray functionality via a 3rd-Party template.
This has been an excellent series to do, and has only whetted my appetite for more.
