Another CSS Project

While I should have been working on the film I told people would be ready to film in a month's time, I updated my myspace profile. I didn't make any of the images, and I stole the code from Jason, but I still put a good deal of effort into it. It's not quite done; I'd like to make the borders a little nicer and add a nice music piece. I've been searching myspace music for almost 3 hours and I still haven't found anything that's just right. I'm almost ready to give up and just stick an MP3 from ocremix" on there. I won't embed it because then people can't stop it, but I really don't like the default player that appears when you stick an MP3 directly on the page.

Things I should be doing:

Finishing the movie I started months ago
Finishing the script I started weeks ago
Finding out why I can't SSH into my server
Cleaning my room
Writing an article about installing Ubuntu
Making the world better for all mankind

Three Full Hours and All I Got Was This Lousy Template

I think it's fairly obvious what I've been up to, other than playing more Diablo (giving up hope on my druid and returning to my warrior, only to return to my trusty druid once again, and completely ignoring my horrible sourceress), Rollercoaster Tycoon (once again, trying to get through all the scenarios and create the best parks ever), and San Andreas (trying to get 100% with good stats, i.e. not dying/failing missions/getting arrested/saving too much). It took nearly three hours to get this done because I had to learn (with Jason's help) CSS and find some nice colors to make everything. In case you were wondering, the background is supposed to look like a notepad like the one in the userbar. That's why the table borders are pink.

Even thought I did learn a nice amount of CSS today, I could have been working on one of my other blogs, writing the script I promised I'd have done a week ago, installing Linux on my two potential servers, or working on an anti Vista poster that I started ages ago. But I did find a really good color choosing tool for Linux and I can use my new CSS skills elsewhere.
