SITE UPDATE-12.7.1122

This is just another typical update. Here's what I did:
  • Everything updated!!!
    • A month ago, I set up the Update Blogs and the Site Update to update to 2013 by scheduling the posts. I even pre-added them into the menu. And it all worked.
    • I had to actually and the update words to the January update. Here's the update. Read it. I says some important things.
    • And I changed the way I do site updates. I adopted the way I do it on the main site. By just posting the update instead of adding it to a long list of updates. I didn't like having a super long page. And then I used the archives to split them by months. And then I added a page with all the months.
      • This way, I don't have a long page of updates and I can limit the number of posts on the home page.
    • Also last month, I re-did all my sites copyrights (There are at the bottom of the site.) in a way that they would automatically update to the next year. And I surprised that...it worked! 
      • I was scared it wouldn't work like how things happen on my sites.
    • A month...again...I added this new thing on the main site that involved the Help page. It was a close-able popup at the top of the site that linked to the help page. Well...it broke. And so, I removed it. I put the old link back into the "Better Way to View" section.
    • The menu is ok. I'm having some overlapping issues that I'm trying to fix.
    • Most of my sites are updated for big computer screens. I used to have them be small because my old computer had a small screen. So I made everything fit in that small. But, I got a new computer and since most computer have HD screens now, I have made my fonts bigger and I switched to a whole new font type. Which is easier to read. The menu was updated to it, my main site's posts are nice big font's now. It's all pretty and easy to read.
    • And lastly...and sadly...I removed the Christmas lights from my sites. I know, :-( . Christmas is over. But I did leave the snow. Because it's still snowing where I live. The snow will go away in March...or February...or whenever I feel like it!!!
