Hey there!

It’s EMG’s Blog!
Hello from EMG!
- I don't update much, I know, as life has been pretty crazy (and not in a sexy cool way) but I do check in here! ~ EMG 2010/11/03
- @DavidAirey I am running a fresh self-install of WP 3.0.1 and I still have the Post Revisions block for each individual post? ~ EMG 2010/08/21
- Oh yeah, and aside from one very minor bit which I will fix, it even works in IE6 without hacks! Admittedly, I'm a little proud of myself! ~ EMG 2010/08/20

Website Updates
- Blog Update: Giving Props! March 8, 2010
  The Giving Props sidebar widget block finally has content! Took me long enough, huh? It’s still not 100% done, but it’s close! Have a look! ~ EMG Afterthought: Maybe I should clone that Giving Props block and import a copy to the main site here… […]

- Site Update: Website Loading Issues March 6, 2010
  After installing Google Analytics to my website and blog site… I started noticing some strange layout loading problems on my sites. Namely, these problems specifically involve my entire site loading approximately 25 to 50px vertically lower than it should. The topbar main navigation should be hugging the top, right? And before I installed Google Analytics […]

- Blog Update: AddThis Angst July 19, 2009
  So uhmmm… whooops? The newer version of the WordPress-specific AddThis coding (the one you can manually add to your posts that uses the php echo?) does NOT validate through W3C.

Giving Props
I didn't get to where I am now with using WordPress, designing my own WordPress themes, and navigating the world of blogging all by myself.

I had some help along the way and so here's to the people, services, and even places who/that have made helped to make all of this possible:

EMG's RMX:

Black and white and grayscale. High contrast with the grayscale symbolizing the height of creativity. Touches of curves amongst all the angles and straight lines. No-nonsense blocks of content that stand out and make themselves known to be what they are. A few splashes of color to bring out life but not overwhelm. Function and form existing in harmony.

And because I’ve got a bit of dirt in me and because I come as I am, there’s the alleyway grunge, too – the concrete wall and the layered ‘graffiti’ art in the header – mixed in with a bit of post-apocalyptic pop culture.
