The entry is all about our wedding rings and some
of the current plans for the wedding, now less than

New Look For KellysWorld.net
01/06/06 03:26 PM Filed in: The Web
With the new year I have given KellysWorld a new
look. Some of you had said the old look was too
dark. I personally like that black look, but
decided I would give some different looks a try.
Not hard to make those changes, so why not!
Check out KellysWorld.net and let me know what you think. I think in the next few weeks I will put up screen shots or test pages with different looks to see what everyone likes.

Introducing KellysWorld 3.0
12/18/05 03:30 PM Filed in: The Web
If you haven't visited KellysWorld.net recently,
you may not have noticed that it has a whole new
look and feel. I call is KellysWorld 3.0; as this
is the 3rd major revision to the site. What you are
reading now, KellysWorld Times, is a sub-domain of
KellysWorld and not actually the primary site. The
actual domain of KellysWorld was pretty much
stagnate for much of 2005. It was just unwieldy to
work on and not much fun. I had more fun working on
KellysWorld times and wrapping my brain around CSS
(Cascading Style Sheets) in Blogger, the tool I use
to make edits and changes to KellysWorld Times. I
enjoyed working in it so much I created a few other
"blogs" for the family plus one for our upcoming
marriage. Those sites though aren't KellysWorld and
as someone who enjoys doing a little web editing
and playing with new features and tools, I really
need to have a fully functional website.
You won't find any fancy features and while the look is new and much improved over the old site, it isn't anything super special. I won't lie to you, it is a template. You may actually see other sites on the web sporting a similar look. Who knows, they may make better use of it.
You will find in KellysWorld the standard fair. There are links to the various family blogs, there is a gallery of photos, a place to send me a quick e-mail, a place to store useful files and even upload some you feel are useful and even a page dedicated to just telling you what's new with the site itself. The gallery is especially cool making use of Flash technology so that all you have to do is sit back and watch the slide show. Having videos on the site should be great in the near future once I have produced a few.
All-in-all it should be a much better site and I hope updated more often than before. For the most updates you can continue to come here, so feel free to bookmark KellysWorld Times; but to say you have actually been to KellysWorld, you will have to go to http://www.kellysworld.net. It's really not that hard... go ahead... you know you want to!

Yay... Done With Basics
12/17/05 02:28 PM Filed in: The Web
I'm finally done with the basics of rebuilding
KellysWorld. I finished adding back what was
missing, the Christmas lists and added in some more
photos. I still have some more albums to add and
spruce up the text some, but the basics are
complete. Not really saying much it is a pretty
small site. Of course the next step is the
recreation of Eternal Magic, if I indeed decide to
recreate that site. A lot of work went into it, but
since I am using a different HTML editor, not sure
how I will proceed. I can continue to use the HTML
editor I did to originally create it, but that
would be a bit of a serious pain since I will have
to keep updating it from time to time for a full
year. I will have to think on that.
More Changes to Site
12/14/05 11:07 PM Filed in: The Web
Okay, I have made some more minor changes to the
site. I discovered that the photo slide show was
too big for Internet Explorer on Windows and
therefore made the images smaller. That seems to
have done the trick and it now appears as it should
on IE. I also played around with many various color
and style variations and like the black one, I
believe the theme or "skin" is called Magnesium. So
far, So good. All seems to be looking up.
Still need to add the actual Christmas lists as well as a few more galleries. COMING SOON...

New Site Up
12/14/05 12:10 PM Filed in: The Web
Today I debuted the New And Improved KellysWorld.
It is my hope that this new site will be easier to
use, nicer to look at and simpler for me to keep
up-to-date while allowing me to include the kind of
features expected in a website these days. That
isn't to say this site is a marvel of HTML coding,
far from it. Simply put, as are the skills, so go
the site. I will play around with the look and feel
of the site, but I do believe I will finally be
able to make occasional updates without going nuts.
A few items may have been lost with the debut of this new site, but I will identify those items and add them. The only thing I can think of that I had in my 2.0 site that I don't have now were the Christmas lists for 2005. I just need to add those back in. I also have noticed that some images that were on some of the blogs are now missing and I will need to fix those problems. All-in-all it should be easy to fix.
Feel free to drop me a line and let me know what you think. I will be looking at what other features I can offer and possibly expand what I am doing here. The meat of the site will most likely remain the "blogs" or the personal journals of Tracy, Courtney and myself; but the site proper will include photo galleries and other less transitory items.
Enjoy the new and improved site... KellysWorld 3.0.
