Day 8

My Senior Project has shifted clearly into focus: learn WordPress, create themes that others can use or perhaps buy for their WordPress site, harness the CMS capabilities of WordPress to create sites that potential clients can easily edit and create their own content from.  At the same time I am learning this I will create a site for Jason(and myself).

Today Pontuti spoke about demo reels for video and animation.  A lot of the same principle of web portfolios applied but the idea to keep them below two minutes.

I received my domain name today evantheurer.com, can't wait to get started.  Actually I think I will redirect this blog right now to blog.evantheurer.com.  See you there.  I made the mistake of first creating a subdomain on my website before I went through the process and startyourwebpages.com helped me to untangle the mess by deleting my existing subdomain and then going in and creating a CNAME record which points to my blog with google.  The only caveat is that I can't have images bigger than 400px now on my blog because I am pointing to my domain name (terms by google) but supposedly if my thumbnail is around 400px it still will link to a much larger image.
