It Never Ends

\"neverIt never ends!

Once again, I\’ve been going at it hammer and tongs (okay, okay, so that\’s an adjustable crescent wrench).

Creating the slides for my site\’s pages is taking quite a bit of doing, plus a lot of time! Tonight I worked on the slides for the For All Cyclists page, and  I\’ve been getting the buttons from one slide to another by using a copy/edit type of function. I copy the first slide that has the buttons on it, then edit the color, text and image. But I haven\’t yet set up the actual slideshow operation.

One of the most maddening things about it is that my laptop\’s screen is much too small to show everything that I need to be able to see. Of course this means a lot of scrolling up and down, and with my laptop and on this particular screen that is a finicky operation. Not to mention the strain on my wrists.

Another infuriating aspect was that one of the slides seemed to keep getting lost! I don\’t know whether I was forgetting to save it, or what. I finally threw it all overboard for a while, and cleaned up the kitchen while I let my mind clear. After that I at last seemed to get that disappearing slide to stay put.

It also drives me crazy that the slides look different when I go into my actual site to view them. Things change size and/or position. There\’s still more white margin than I like. I need a two-week vacation right now to devote my energies to this; because, as any web site owner knows, it never ends.
