Mallow 1.1, 31-12-4 - Definitely worthy of v1.1 I think (infact probably overdue). I have fixed the problem in IE with story titles and meta after the first post having the line cut short so they run on multiple lines. I think it was some kind of stupid IE CSS thing as I have had to reset them back to pixel widths, percentage just didnt work.

*EDIT:* Err, ok, that probably should have been v1.0 but nevermind.

Well…. obviously if you take the 1st and 5th letters of WordPress they are W and P - WP - thats it, simple.

Ive just noticed via BB that the AppleUK homepage as links to donation sites.

These are UK specific donation sites (as I’m in the UK):
Redcross, Unicef, Concern, CIDI.
Red Cross org is a good place to start for those of you not in the UK.

Lots of related info on MetaFilter and tags in del.icio.us, better than me posting a load of links.

Mallow 1.09, 29-12-4 - Separated track/pingbacks from comments thanks to code sent by Joen.

So lets see if I can ping Mallow.

I know its been out for a while but i thought it was worth mentioning that ive just upgraded about 6 WP sites I sort of administer to WP 1.2.2 and it was dead easy - about 5 mins per site.

I’ve enabled the Staticize Reloaded Plugin, so if anything goes wonky - hold tight!

*Note to self:* Must work on my punctuation, I’m way too lazy.

Being the shameless follower of trends that I am, I visited Noscopes article about Favatars and had to have them for myself, so I grabbed the script and turned it into my own WP plugin.
So now, in the comments, if the commenter has a favicon on the site they entered, Itll show up next to the Gravatar.
I should really only have one or the other but pfft.
Oh, and if there’s any funky problems Ill have to turn it off as Im _not really_ sure what Im doing, for that reason (and also as its not my code) I wont release the plugin - just do it yourself.

*EDIT:* There is now a downloadable plugin available.

*EDIT 2:* Using Jeffs great adaptation Ive now enabled favatars/favicons for all comments.

My current *bah humbug* rant at the top of the page currently, is stuck there courtesy of Adhesive, plus a dripping of my teh CSS skillizhor for styling of course ;-)

You can see what other plugins Im using on my About page, somewhere down the sidebar.

Mallow 1.08, 24-12-4 - More CSS tweakage - mainly calendar, also link to Kubrick is just ‘#’ as I think that signifies _’cite’_ or _’credit’_, oh and the link to _’Matthew’_ now goes to the Mallow home page. Finally, posts with pics in them, aligned left or right _should not_ funk up the rest of the page.

Found this in TK Maxx in Fareham - a necklace with *”STUD”* - *Mmmmmmm!!*

xmas04weather.jpgWell according to Konfabulator, yes. Well see I guess.
*EDIT Monday:* No sign yet.
*EDIT Thursday:* Well, it didnt.

..as an atheist - congratulations everybody on turning a (previously pagan) christian day of celebration into a season of outrageous spending, tussling in shops and all out mass commercialism.

*Merry Christmas* - in a non-denominational, completely secular way ;-)

Just got this..

Before its too late make peace with GOD,

and make sure the ones you love do also.

You need to pick between a eternity of joy or one of torment.

Accept him.

We discuss this alot at work (too much probably) what order would you rank fast food shops in? This list as a UK list and from best (top) to last (bottom) weve decided on the following;

1. KFC
2. Burger King
3. McDonalds
4. Wimpy - just because it has a sausage called a ‘big bender’ ;-)

And for Supermarkets also;

1. Waitrose
2. M&S - Not technically a Supermarket but the food is good
3. Sainsburys
4. Tesco
5. Asda
6. Aldi, Lidl etc

Controversial stuff Im sure youll agree ;-)

*EDIT:* Yeah well, that post title doesnt make much sense does it?

Mallow 1.07, 21-12-4 - Tweaked CSS, changed some widths from px to %.

*Oh so soon?* Yes, hopefully this plays better with IE in Windows now, but it *did* look fine in Virtual PC, WinXP, SP2, IE6 point something at my end.

Oh and a word to our Windows/IE using friends; Im sorry if it may not look quite right but Im afraid my knowledge of IE, its CSS vagaries and that whole can-o-worms doesnt stretch very far. I do try to make it aleast usable in IE but if you have any problems, ideas feel free to contact me and I *will* try to fix it or atleast come up with a feeble excuse.

Mallow 1.06, 21-12-4 - Added calendar.

idcardvote.jpg

Well it was Parliaments vote on ID cards yesterday and they voted in favour with 150 or so MPs _away_ to do Christmas shopping or whatever (Damn I cant find a link for this but Im *sure* it was on Radio 4). This was conveniently so that they didnt have to vote *against* their parties. For such a big issue as ID cards (and one that Im against), this just makes me think theyre a bunch of shits.

ID cards will initially not be compulsory, but will become so. Supposedly terrorism isnt the main reason for ID cards, but to _empower_ us with our identities - yeah *right* .. *Phhisshhh*

I dont want to have an ID card just to rent a DVD or whatever, I know who I am and if becomes a problem for bank accounts or whatever then Ill deal with it then. I have a passport, which is _surely_ the best form of ID anyway .. or atleast should be

Ofcourse theres also the very bad track record Governments have in any big computer system so no doubt we’ll be spending millions on a system which will think Im an old lady from Grantham - if it works at all

And another thing… the Tories support ID cards too so theres no real option .. Yay for democracy!

Gravatars have fallen off at the moment, heres an explanation, and you can help.

(Via Binary Bonsai.)

Should I set up CSS for a calendar in Mallow? I find a calendar more than useless so Ive not bothered but I wonder if anyone would like it?

Mallow calendar?

Weighted Comments plugin for WordPress is pretty cool, you can see it in my archives.

Faceanalyzer deduces certain personality and racial traits from a pic of your face, Im not sure how accurate it can be but wtf.

Heres an amusing diversion
