chao's blog

If you haven't noticed, today I updated my first entry in my Zen's starter theme. I've decided to compact the site a little and remove the right sidebar. But in order for the theme to work right, I had to update a few other places too. So basically I just changed all 960px to 760px, 760px to 560px, and 560px to 360px. Just to be totally crystal clear. Here're the layout.css modifications in red.

Today I had an interesting conversation with my uncle about student vs. teacher. The subject came up when he wanted me to teach him about "computers" and somehow led to the question, "What makes a good student, and what makes a good teacher."

In my effort to blog more frequently and get in the habit of writing, creating, and expressing more, I'm just going to have to write this one out before I head to bed.

Xin Nian Kuai Le everybody!

Just upgraded my Drupal installation to 6.0-rc3. It's not really a final release version, but I just couldn't wait to try it out. The new theming system sounds pretty neat with the new Custom Theme Settings. After messing with the Thirteen theme a bit for woknroll.us, I thought I'd try to create a theme from scratch myself. Then I saw this "Zen Themer’s Starter Kit", and I had to try it out. Well, this isn't exactly "creating a theme from scratch", but it's pretty close. Right now it's pretty minimal, I'll try to put some pizzazz to it soon...

...then again, i'm kinda digging this minimalistic theme already.
