1haiku

1haiku.com is up..

after about a year of knowing how i wanted it to look, and having tried sort-of-successfully but unsatisfiedly to get it the way i wanted, i finally revisited it a few days ago and redid the whole thing..
same intended design, but redid the html and css and put it into Textpattern this time. i’d initially tried it with Wordpress, because i needed two key features: user self-registration and random articles. ultimately, a self-registration mod (thanks Manfre :)) was developed for Textpattern and i twisted a few things and managed to get the random feature i’d wanted.

so, it’s up and working and i’m already really pleasantly surprised by the poems coming in; some are thoroughly entertaining, some are intriguing—but i wouldn’t have gotten to see any of them if this site wasn’t there for me to ask people to post to, neh?

so.. i don’t need to be up til 4am tonight; i’m going to bed..
come daylight, it’ll be time for me to get back to doing all the important things that actually really need doing. but i really needed to get this done, for myself.

goodnight
