Update: It works in all browsers now.. Yaaaayy!! Though IE does this strange ass selection thing that I need to figure out how to stop.. Next; I make it save your preferences then on to implementation!
So its been several more days and I have spent quite a bit of my spare time working on this theme conversion.. I can almost say its complete, but not quite yet.

My colorChooser system is about 90% done in Firefox and Safari, and about 70% done in Opera and IE. I’m not at all surprised that it’s not working correctly in IE, but the fact that Opera has the same error was a little shocking. Usually Safari and Opera work in parallel when it comes to javascript. Meaning if it works in one, it works in the other and vice versa.. I’ve managed to break that paradigm with this bit of code.. hehe.. It will be interesting to see what the issue is.. Read more…
Well as some of you know I have been working on a joint WordPress MU and Invision Power Board theme based on the joomla theme Chromatophore.. I thought I would give an update — It’s going well all things considered, but its taking me a little longer than I had for seen to get the color chooser logic working correctly.
You can see my progress here:

I’ve run into some interesting javascript foibles that I have had to deal with and have also taken this opportunity to start on my own javascript toolbox.

Well per my post on the 18th I have gotten wordpress mu up and running on my forum server. Currently the urls used to access that system are;
Only the first one works 100% correctly right now. My virtual hosts file and dns aren’t quite syncing up correctly — should be fixed eventually.
By that, you should take this as a very serious effort on my part. I want this to be a success. The next thing I must do is figure out how to correctly style the MU entry page such that it’s a self explainitory advertisement of what it does, and such that it incorporates content from the various other blogs.

As many of you know I am the owner of the Amateur and Fan Films forum over at fanfilmsforum.com. I am always keen on making new things happen for people and have always wanted that community to do well. While I will admit my aspirations to make films has some what died down, I still very much enjoy talking about films and media in general and interacting with the folks on the forum.
Over the years I have started and stopped several projects for the forum. Most of them looked good on paper, or even half way through production but just didn’t pan out for one reason or another. The latest attempt was at making a film repository and voting system that was similar to IMDB but specifically for amateur/fan films. As of right now that project is on hold – likely forever.

This is my first fully custom, from the ground up worldpress theme — I give you; Microblue.
As of this posting, its the theme I’m using and I plan to release it to the wild once it’s fully working. I also will be releasing the PSD that I used to create it so you can take it one step farther if you like.
For icons I’m using either using famfamfam.com silk icons or taking those icons and modifying them in some way.

Yay! Everything is back and working nicely. The nice thing about having your server hacked is that you end up having to put everything back — which yes is a colossal pain in the ass, but you will just about always put it back in better shape than it was in to begin with.
