I went and saw Iron Man tonight. Go see it if you are a fan of any of the following: iron man (the character), comic book movies, robots, action, comedy or just great films. I won’t write a review that gives anything away for a few weeks to give everyone time to go see it. I loved it, great film. Oh and stay for the full credits there is a scene after that is worth watching if you already sat through the movie. And judging by the previews this is going to be a good year for movies.
If anyone out there checks back periodically you will probably notice the theme changing at fairly random intervals. That is because I haven’t been able to find a look that really fits what I feel this blog is all about. My Movable Type blog looked great and I am struggling to find something similar in WordPress. Mostly I am being very picky. I can’t stand to read large blocks of black text against a white background and wouldn’t force any of you to do so. After an hour my retinas feel like they have third degree burns.
So I need a theme that has some grey, but not too dark. Black background is kind of cliched as emo and/or noob blog. I like blue but most of the themes are way too blue. And so forth. The ones that do match my color scheme have other quirks though. Like not showing the entry title or author. I know my name is on the blog title and only I post here, but that may not always be the case. I like to make sure everyone gets credit for their own work. So keep watching as I cycle through the vast ocean of blog themes in a futile effort to silence my inner criticism.
*edit* I settled on a theme called Smooth Dirt. The header image was originally a big ad for the guy who made but since his credits are at the bottom I didn’t feel bad modifying it to better fit my needs. We shall see how it works out, I may spontaneously change my mind at a later date.
If you have been paying attention you may have noticed that my blog has been inactive for some time now. My old web host, who shall remain unnamed, performed some server upgrades. I believe that during the transfer to the new servers something was compromised because the blog was hacked several times per week until I took it down. Phishing websites for an English bank occurred multiple times, meaning it was the same person/group exploiting my page. So now I have a new host and we will see if they are any better, which I don’t doubt. So all my old posts will be reposted here when I have time, meaning after final exams.
