Oops.

I say that a lot when I’m working. I’m a software developer. I’ve spent many years, nearly 24, writing code in one language or another. And I always say ‘oops.’ When my finger misses a key, I say ‘oops.’ When the program crashes, I say ‘oops,’ and sometimes other things too!

My supervisors over the years have told me that it doesn’t sound that good when they hear ‘oops’ over the partition. But still, I say ‘oops’ when something goes wrong.

Unfortunately, the theme that I selected doesn’t work all that well with Internet Explorer 6. It’s all out of whack. Oops.

I considered for a while dumping it and finding something else, but I’m not going to. The reason is that Microsoft is planning on a forced update to Internet Explorer 7, which works perfectly well with the theme. In fact, IE7 doesn’t have the little problem that Firefox does with the 125×125 ads in the sidebar. There’s some little css twitch there that I need to find.

Since IE6 is on the way out, I don’t believe there’s that much of a problem not supporting it.

I realize that some of you IE6 users don’t plan on upgrading to IE7, so I’ll apologize to you for the theme problems. I do suggest that you upgrade to Firefox, Opera, or at the least IE7 since all of these browsers offer a much improved experience over Internet Explorer 6.

As always a new blog theme, and a new blog for that matter, will have those little kinks that need to be worked out. It was a busy weekend getting this blog and another up and running, I still haven’t worked out all my plugins.

I hope you’ll bear with me. It shouldn’t be long before everything is up to spec.
