Might be old news, but this was cool, and funny.

Gallery2 integration works, mostly. Well the sidebar and full page embedding works, more to come. Activate WPG2 by pointing it to http://stjschool.org/gallery2/ and it should autodetect the rest. Then place the STJ Galley widget in your sidebar. Subscribe2 allows you to email, automagically, site updates(a new post for example) to your subscribers. A new Subscribe link appears in your footer.

Flickr changed how you access your images in early September. So I've updated the plugin. You'll need to have an "API Key" and a "Shared Secret", now. It is a good idea to put images on Flickr instead, or in addition to, stj servers. Flickr badges are cool, too. Do not activate the Flickr plugin if you don't have a Flickr account. You lose the ability to browse your blog's upload folder while Flickr plugin is active, I still don't know the fix. Look here, see if you can find a fix, too.

Click the images. Before iBox After iBox Want to know how? Start a thread in the forum, "How to iBox?". When three STJ bloggers post, let me know and I'll join in with the secret.

Help with the graphics for our Senior Girls ASAA Championship website. Look at the header images here:

• supervoley
• asaa.reveal.ca
• ours

We can do better, I know it. The images you use to create the header MUST be "public domain" such as those from freefoto.com. I prefer 100% verifiable original artwork.

Something very new has been built into iblog.stjschool.org, "snowsuits." Be up to date with your posts. Hand in an up to date "Assessment Data Sheet." If you think you can handle the responsibility, and if I think you've got the skills, I'll enable your access to "snowsuits." D. Sader (Fed your inner geek lately?)

Before you go further, choose a theme that has a "Theme Editor" (variously titled such as "Theme Options", "Edit Styles"). Choose a theme that allows you to change the header image AND the font colours(StripedPlus isn't only one, is it?). Step One: Title your blog.(do not use your name) Step Two: Write your own one sentence blog description. Step Three: Get an image from www.freefoto.com. Step Four: Use Photoshop to put all layers together. Export the image, keep it less than 20k.

Thanks to those helping/experimenting with graphics for shop.snowotherway.org. Progress is slow, but carefully done. What works? 5-6 images of each garment with hardwood background, adjust==>image size 320x240px and 72 dpi, and adjust==>auto levels so white balance looks better. Be certain to name each image according to corresponding "product code." Check out T-Shirts, others a piece at a time. Thanks Braden, Deena, Michael M., Adam M.
