Finally getting a chance to grasp what a fun and delicate beast WordPress.org-based blogs can be.
Here’s a little hint at what Newton Poetry might become, someday:

I’m finding that little things, like inserting Newton graphics next to the sidebar headers, is more difficult than I thought. Already I’ve noticed how different it is compared with my original concept. Part of it is the theme I chose to mess around with, but it also highlights my general noobishness when it comes to CSS. PHP? Don’t get me started.
Mark your calendar: 2009 is when it will happen. I’m close enough to my 500-a-day goal that I can justify making the switch to a full-on, self-hosted blog.
So – what do you think so far?
Keep working at it and you’ll get there. It can be frustrating at times, especially trying to get CSS to do what you want.

Indeed. Thanks, Magnus. And since I’ve taught myself, it’s been slow going. There’s so much involved – I feel like I need a helping hand from a professional.
