Thread about nothing

Post by Jachym » Wed Sep 13, 2017 10:26 pm

Almost every forum has at least one nonsense thread.

I felt like I want to post something, but had no idea what. So here it is, post about nothing.

Feel free to join the discussion :D

I, very often, spend many hours thinking of nothing. It's one of my favorite pastimes.

And digging through Jachym's php code to figure out how it works. :D

Actually I think you were spot on mentioning my coding skills in this "nonsense" thread :-) I very often feel it is appropriate :D

I was just looking through the code on another site to see how they changed Jachym's code. I haven't figured it out yet, but the night is still young - here anyway.

That might be worth starting a different topic in Programming or Tech & Internet.

It would be cool to see how people are customizing things.

I do it mostly because I can't help myself. I tinker with things that are not broken for the fun of it. :P But sometimes I have extra parts left over. I guess they put extra parts in there for me to find them. :shock:

Yes, Im glad when people customize stuff!
The only downside obviously is that during template updates you might either lose your changes and have to do them again, or not update, but there is no way around that.

They are very high resolution, what camera did you use to take them? Oh and the image player is pretty cool as well.

Good thought, Jáchym. My two sites - old and new, respectively - and world-wide ratings:

2,999,096
14,769,941

I've cracked the top three-million. Whoopee! :roll:

Thinking about how I spent the first evening of my vacation week trying to make my website responsive (old version here compared to new site here ) when I should have gone directly to Meteotemplate.
At least I learnt from my mistakes...
Adding blocks and plugins is much more gratifying than searching for the misplaced comma in a CSS or PHP.
