I think this will do nicely…

…at  least for now anyway. Earlier today I downloaded the jQ theme by Devolux, and proceeded to rape and pillage it until I got something I was happy with. It’s definitely not perfect, but it looks decent enough to live with for the time being, so I can go ahead and work on other stuff.

Welcome to the new DigitalUtopia.org!

Wednesday, November 18, 2009

Although this is very much a work in progress at this point, DigitalUtopia.org has obviously changed. In lieu of that, I feel an explanation is owed to those of you that still pop in here from time to time, as well as a welcome to those of you who have just stopped in.

From the beginning, DigitalUtopia.org was a php-nuke/phpbb site, which was always too large for what it contained. Sure, the forums came in handy for a particular mod – a certain model that needs no introduction, but beyond that – it was just another site with forums, and very few members.

So this time around, I took a look at my habits, and decided to go in a direction that I felt would be a better fit for my needs. While I haven’t done a project of the scope of dear sweet Alyx since then, I’ve been busy with quite a variety of small projects. These projects have varied from “curiosity experiments” to released projects and services of a smaller scope.

Although I did start a blog on a certain MMO’s website, and have always been a forum junkie, I figured that one centralized location to keep track of my projects, and share these with whoever may have interest in them would be the ideal choice. Since this host has been used the last few years for nothing more than file storage and scripts – and the site itself has been pretty much a ghost town – that the best decision would be to breathe new life into it by making the change you see here.

The past is….hiding

As for the old site? Currently it’s mostly still there – at least in terms of files and the database anyway. So those posts can be retrieved for posterity at some point – if that need ever arises;  however I don’t see that need right now. No, I’m certainly not “ashamed” of Alyx. This isn’t some cheap way of hiding a “youthful indiscretion” with some thinly veiled attempt at maturity. Although I feel that it could’ve been better, I’m much more interested in doing it better than trying to hide it under a Wordpress rug.

At any rate, thanks for stopping by and keep your eyes open for some polish followed by some content!
