The Giving Props sidebar widget block finally has content!
Took me long enough, huh? 
It’s still not 100% done, but it’s close! 
Have a look!

Afterthought: Maybe I should clone that Giving Props block and import a copy to the main site here…
After installing Google Analytics to my website and blog site…
I started noticing some strange layout loading problems on my sites.
Namely, these problems specifically involve my entire site loading approximately 25 to 50px vertically lower than it should.
The topbar main navigation should be hugging the top, right? And before I installed Google Analytics, it was. All the time. And then I installed Google Analytics and it wasn’t anymore – not consistently anyways.
So yeah.
After experimenting with some coding and doing some research, my conclusion is that because the Google Analytics is installed in the header of the page (meaning, it loads before any of my site contents do), its loading can sometimes interfere with the rendering of my website.
Sorry about that everyone!
Reloading the page always does the trick and resets the layout back to normal as the Analytics has already had a chance to load on the first load and therefore doesn’t and can’t interfere with the reload.
I will continue to investigate a way to solve this issue, but until then, I thought I would share a bit of news.

Heck yeah!
The Emotiomental Graffiti blog is now ready to GO LIVE!
Custom search and 404 pages have all been ironed out and 99.9% of the CSS tweaking that was left to be done at last update has now been completed.
What’s left is the background stuff that nobody’s going to run into more than likely, which I will finish cleaning up later.
But for now, the BLOG IS LIVE!

So… whoa.
If anyone has visited my site in the last week, you might have noticed that it was sporadically offline or was giving error messages.
Sorry about that!
Due to situations beyond mine or my web host’s control, I am being switched to a new server (my old one was… well… too old?) and where I believe 99.9% of everything has switched over just fine, there might be a hiccup or three here and there as everything else gets sorted out and finalized.
I apologize for any difficulties or inconveniences anyone might experience between then and now and if any new developments should pop up, I’ll will let you know!
Hopefully everything will finish settling soon!

Okay…
So I was wrong.
THIS is the last update for today.
The Emotiomental Graffiti blog is going to get a re-theme very soon and I believe that it will share the same theme as this portion of the site or a modified version of this theme.
Logically and in terms of continuity within the site, it makes the most sense, so… yeah.
Blog update will be coming up soon!

There are a lot of webhosts out there and I've given a few of them a run for their services (while they've given me a run for my money) and after all this time... Dreamhost wins my vote. The price is right, the package has everything I need, the CPanel has everything right at my fingertips, there's Fantastico's One-Click Installs (you can still do everything manually if you want), but most importantly, their customer support for me has been nothing short of OUTSTANDING. Add to the fact that Dreamhost is also now green? That's pretty damned awesome. Go visit them yourself or read my full review for more information.
