Alright, let's hear it; how do you like my stripes? Would you like me to have a style changer? Do you want to submit your own theme? Tell me what you think by adding a comment. I'm listening...

Thanks to Bill Horvath for 5 pictures and a bunch of new captions for the TODCON MX Vegas gallery. If you've already seen the gallery it is worth checking out again just to read his little quips. We're still waiting on pics from Jim, Steve, and Adam. I'll keep you posted!

Well, I got most of the images uploaded today. I still need to add captions to many of them though. Please feel free to recomend captions to me. If I like 'em, I'll add 'em. I have rougly 35 more images to crop/resize/retouch/upload tomorrow from my camera. Then on Monday or Tuesday I should have more from other people to upload too. Sure is time consuming, but better to do it now then to slack and never get around to it... I'm way sleepy, goodnight.

Happy birthday to Tom Muck! It's actually on the 7th, but it is already his birthday in his time zone...

Well, I've uploaded pictures from my second day in Vegas for TODCON. Unfortunately I'm having trouble writing to the XML file on the server so captions are still forthcoming. Please bear with the icky file names for now, and check the blog for news of when the captions are done. You'll want to go back and read them ;-)
Thanks to Eric Meyer, Jay Grantham, and Jim Babbage for their shots and permission to host them here. I'm still waiting for shots from Adam Carr and Steve Fleischer, but don't expect them for a few more days. Looks like TODCON MX Vegas is going to be the largest gallery I have on this site so far.

In case you're looking for the TODCON MX Vegas image gallery, it is temporarily offline while I rename images. It should be back up in about an hour. Sorry for the inconvenience. The good news is I'll have more pictures up from Day 2 at that time. Still, I have many more photos to crop, upload, that will need captions too. Thanks for your patience...

Ray left the network up just so I could get Day One's pictures up. Some of them need to be re-cropped because of bad batch processing, and the captions could use some help. Feel free to make suggestions. :-) There will be tons of shots from Day 2 soon as I can get those uploaded. Eric Meyer, Jim Babbage, Adam, and Steve Fleischer all have images they've either contributed or will send to me. We all had too much fun to take many shots today but there are some. So much to say, and no time to write it all since the network is going down any...

They're about to shut down the network! Nooooooooooo. I guess I'll be posting more tomorrow when I get home. Damn... Hopefully I can get a connection around somewhere.

My Find and Replace session was attended by only 5 people! I expected this though, since I was up against Eric Meyer. Really, I was hoping nobody would show, so I could attend his session. No such luck though. Eric's session was standing room only; packed.
My session went pretty well though, especially since the group watching were experienced enough to follow along without excruciating explaination. In prep for this session, and during the session, I've found several Find and Replace bugs that I must report to Macromedia. In fact, one regular expression I used, should not have worked, blatantly wrong, and it worked! I have to tinker some more to figure out why exactly I was so lucky it worked. Massimo, Tom and I were all amazed. Definitely a bug. :-)
I'd love to give this session again some time. Everyone said that they learned something totally new that would save them hours of time. So I was quite pleased. Afterwards, during the lunch break, I redid several portions of the session for those who missed it. Lots of fun. Reg Exes are cool. ;-)

Even though TODCON is officially over, we're still going strong and having a blast. There's so much to say, and so many photos to crop, upload and captionize (is that a word?). So please be patient, and I'll do my best.

Murray's talking about creating menus using template parameters and template expressions to determine the down state of a button. He definitely knows his stuff, and how to expose the power behind these features. Not to mention it is just fun hearing him use the word "spawn"...

I didn't do much more blogging because I spent a good hour or so going from room to room in the hotel to find one where the wireless connection works. Finally Jay suggests we try an even numbered room which is closer to the base station. Sure enough, that did it!
By the time I got rooms switched and went up to the conference level it was about 5:30. Hung out with everyone up there awhile then we decided to meet back at 7 for dinner. We wound up going to a sushi place in the Luxor. Dinner conversation... well, what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas as they say... However, I was taking down quotes and will add some of them to a page on this site. There are images taken by Jay, Eric, and Adam. (Adam will email me those when he gets back home.) Jay and Eric were going to give me theirs tonight but I never made it out of my room to get the laptop. I wound up staying here in my room and taking care of some things, losing all track of time. Jay called and said I stood them up at about 11:45 that they were all going to bed. Sorry guys! I got sidetracked...it happens.
Hopefully I'll get the pictures from them and uploaded some time tomorrow. I've my Dreamweaver MX Killer Tips session to do tomorrow first session of the morning. After that I'll try to get the pics up and some work done too. Stay tuned...

We're here at "Summer Camp For Geeks" and about to have Eric A Meyer present the keynote.
Last night the speakers and Community MX authors joined for a special dinner of Filet Minon and Chicken with creme (not-so) brule (but still yummy) for dessert. Open bar...yummmmm.
Unlike past conferences, I've taken pictures from Day 1. I even have them all uploaded already but I need to do captions so I'm not revealing them to you just yet. All in good time... :-)
Ray says we have to eat the food :-) There's lots of it even...
Eric Meyer's introduction (Ray West): We've tried to get Eric Meyer here for a year and half. I've had his passport revoked and taken two of his children so he can be here.
I've been writing down some great quotes as they happen and will either post them or use them as captions in the photo albums.

I'm about to leave for TODCON MX Vegas. Everything is packed, just have to run to the store real quick then it is off to John Wayne airport. I should be getting to the hotel about 4pm. I've heard that there will be wireless access there, so if it works for me, I'll try to blog "live" from TODCON.

Comment from David on 10/9/2005
These stripes are so awesome! Nice work!!
Thanks David :-) When I originally made this post it was a different set of stripes than these (but just as "awesome" if I do say so myself).
Truth be told, both sets of stripes (the previous background and this one) were my favorite pajama pants. One of these days I'll get around to adding a style changer and adding more of my jammies as backgrounds...Gotta get inspiration from somewhere, why not jammies?! ;-) ~Angela
Comment from Jane Jolin on 7/29/2005
I'm very excited about the project as I just finished a design theme for csszengarden.com
You can have a look at http://www.celebrityblog.net/zengarden/zengarden-sample.htm
Congrats! I don't know if or when I'll ever get around to it but if I do... well, you know. ~Angela
Comment from Dan on 6/14/2003
There shall be no harassment of Dan for new features :). BWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Is there no way I could presuade you...?<pout /> ~Angela
Comment from Dan on 6/13/2003
D'OH!!! Damn you MERLOT!!!!!!!
:-) hahahhahahahahaha
Note to self: Harass Dan about adding a time of reply field to the blog-o-matic database. Might be good to ask him while he's still schnockered... Hmm... ~Angela
Comment from Dam on 6/13/2003
Consider Derren smacketh... it's like he doesn't have enough work harassing me...
Good, he deserves it. That'll teach him. Although, I must admit, you're fun to harass...
Oh and by the way, when did you change your name? Typlexic? ;-) (Course you have access to my admin :-\) ~Angela
Comment from Derren. on 6/13/2003
Since you asked, here it comes (I just know I'm going to get "yeah, well your site uses tables for layout!). :) Personally, I find the stripes really distracting. They bother my eyes while I reading, to a such degree that even the limited amount of stripes visible on the "Add A Comment" window makes them sore after a while. For this post, I had to move the window off the bottom of the display so I'd see even less stripes. :)
I equate having "design guts" to having &qout;fashion guts". Would you actually wear a top with these lines on it? Hmm, fashion is different for women than it is for men. ;-) I guess Dan and I don't count since his site is Yeller (not "yellow") and mine is green (well, #003333). :)
Who needs a "Check Spelling" option? Real browsers tie into the built in spell checking services that the OS offers any app that's written to take advantage of it. :)
On a positive note, you don't use tables for layout! ;-)
Yes, I would wear clothing with those stripes. :-) If you find any, do let me know... Dan's gonna have to smack you for some of your comments you know. Them be fightin' words...
Of course I don't use tables for layout, what kind of geek would I be if I did? :-) ~Angela
Comment from Richard Perry on 6/12/2003
Love the stripes. I got the link from Eric Meyers' site. I am busy trying to become a CSS disciple so its always good to see good sites like yours. While I like style changers I wonder is it possible to do without using scripts? I maybe wrong but I have this thing about scripts, so if you can do it without then by all means lets see! I think the idea of style and separating style from content is wonderfully portrayed by the CSS Zen Garden site but I'm still looking to see how it can be done without scripts.
But love your bold design keep up the good work
Yet another person with good taste! :-) Thanks for the kind words. Nice to know how folks find my site too. (Thanks Eric.)
I'm not sure what you have against scripts, though I presume you mean JavaScript? I happen to like JavaScript, but I'd probably do it on the server-side. I'd either use a method similar to what Dan did for My DWfaq or the method we used in a session we gave at TODCON 2001.
Unfortunately I don't get to spend as much time playing with my blog as I'd like, or by now a style changer would be done. I've got to do a sushi theme, I just have to...
Thanks Again! ~Angela
Comment from Big John on 6/8/2003
Those stripes show real design guts. I like that. It's been hinted that my all-css bike site is 'powerful' (whatever that means).
users.rraz.net/mc_on_the_rocks/
Design guts; I'll have to remember that one. :-) I'll definitely be checking out your site some more this week. Lots of great stuff there! I'll also be examining the bike site when I get a spare moment. Sans tables for layout, I like. :-)
Sidenote: Love the domain name. At first I expected it to be a search engine positioning site. My brother's name is John, and that's what he does.
Thanks for the comments! ~Angela
Comment from Dan on 6/8/2003
Stripes are gooooood
Well of course you like 'em... your blog is yellow! ~Angela
Comment from Pete on 6/8/2003
Lose the stripes :), they are too distracting. The focus should be on the content and the menu, but all I see is the stripes!
I few styles would be nice, always nice to offer a choice :)
ps... when clicking 'Check Spelling' I get a 'Page Cannot be found' :( .. I was curious about what you are using for the spell checking, is it a custom dll?
I won't be getting rid of the stripes any time soon, but new themes are entirely possible (though not soon either). As for the spell check... OOPS! It was working in the admin area (not that I use it as much as I should!) and I just assumed it worked on the front end. It is an Active X requiring MS Word. ~Angela
Comment from Jay on 6/8/2003
It's your blog.. I say make everyone see what you want them to see.. unless you decide to change it to brown leopard! :)
Hmmm now that's a thought...match my laptop case. ~Angela
