More website changes Thursday, January 6, 2005
 Here's an optional caption.
# Images shortcut and box code I just can't
leave Bill's code well enough
alone.
Here's the code: (defun weblog-macro-images (&optional entry altern capt) (if (null entry) "<b>Site owner started to add an image, but then forgot. Oops.</b>" (concat "<div id=\"images\"><img src=\"" entry "\" alt=\"" (or altern entry) "\" />" (if (null capt) "</div>" (concat "<br />" capt "</div>"))))) (defun weblog-insert-images () ; "Insert a bordered image with a caption within a border" (interactive) (insert "{images}") (backward-char)) (define-key weblog-mode-map "C-I" 'weblog-insert-images) I'll think about doing some patches later, maybe. # Some random rambling EDIT: potentially sensitive information removed If you've ever visited this site before (which you probably haven't) you'll notice a slightly different look-and-feel. As I said in my last entry, I mostly just had to edit CSS. If nothing else would, that helped clue me in to the notion that CSS is good, m'kay?
The picture in the banner is a Photoshop creation based on a tutorial I found on Deviantart.net. Take a look here. The rock photo was taken at a local natural area known as Giant City State Park. I'm thinking of hitting the local state parks as soon as the weather improves, but hopefully before spring; this is the ideal time of year to get good photos of lichen-covered rock. The lichen-covered rock makes for ideal "Class-M" planet surfaces; lichen fills in for clouds nicely. I'm trying to figure out how best to do this in The GIMP. # Lost in translation? I just looked in the January digest and found this:
Thursday, 6 January: More website changes Heh. It leaves something to be desired, doesn't it?

This code is pretty
simple: Hit Control-Shift-I and you get a shortcut named "images".
First argument is filename, second argument is alternate (text that
pops up when the image is unloadable) and the third is a caption.
This code requires supporting CSS. Also, I can't find a way to get
it to work without wrapping each story in a table (though I didn't
try very hard. Copyright © 2005 by Shane Simmons <regeya@earthlink.net>
