For further news and announcements, please now refer to this new BLOG site.
Although not fully populated, I have registered a new trblasingame.com domain where the new website is located. Until such time as when it's completed, you will still need to come here to my Weebly site for my story library archive. When the new site is finished, I will post a redirect message here to folks will know where to find me. Well, I’ve been working on it this weekend, but I’m not sure I’m pleased with the results. The design of the new site is similar to what I had when I still had my Dennier.Com domain, mixed with the new material added to the Weebly site. I freely admit that I’m not a very good website designer and it shows. Unfortunately, a lot of the tools used for creating dynamic sites are not in my possession (or experience using). For the moment, I'm working with simple HTML with tables to put things together, but I'm afraid there's not a separate version specifically for mobile devices.
The result so far can be found at http://trblasingame.atwebpages.com/, but I may well scrap the whole thing and try a different design before I create too many pages. If you check the link from time to time, you may see different designs or configurations. I won't delve deep into creating a bunch of pages until I come up with a look that I like. Up until recently, this free Weebly website has fulfilled the need for a place to archive my stories. Unfortunately, recent changes to the user interface has played havoc with formatting on newly created or updated story pages. Whereas in the past I could simply copy the text of a chapter from my original Word document and then paste it to a page on this site with minimal format changes from one to another. With the recent changes, if I do that now, the pasted text is all there, but the paragraph format disappears and all the text runs together. There are no alternative tools without a way to correct this using the Weebly interface.
I tried a Live Chat with a Weebly representative and he was thorough trying to help me resolve this issue, but neither of us were successful fixing this dilemma. So... I am going to have to start looking for a new site for my story archives. This site is free without interfering advertisement banners or pop-ups and I will need to find another that allows the same, but which also gives me the ability to either reformat or maintain original formatting of the text. I had my own webhosting site at one time that gave me total control over everything I did, but I no longer have the funds to pay for such a site, so I need to rely on another freebie. I have made some typos and error corrections recently to some of my story chapters, but there are too many to reformat by hand here on this restrictive site. For the time being, the errors will continue to reside here until I can find a new home for my library. Stay tuned, folks. |
