Socks. Also Drupal.






Look, more socks! Also, I have been playing around learning Drupal. "Knitting Project" is a content type. I'm trying to decide whether I actually want to copy all the knitting photos over, or if a proof of concept is enough. Actually maintaining two different parallel constructions is kind of annoying, and the static pages are easier to port somewhere else, but the Drupal Cloud is free storage. Maybe the thing to do is copy enough to be an interesting database, and then play around with more views, so I have incentive to learn more things.

Pretty socks!

Why Drupal? <pokes around a wee bit> I like your profile picture! That the pictures of knitting projects link to the project pages but the titles don't disconcerts me a bit.

Why Drupal?

'Cause it's a thing I'm moving into supporting more, and it is extra bonus complicated, so my usual method of learning something by looking at all the menus and clicking on the buttons is not really sufficient. :)

Hah, ok, I just realized your sock photo links to your Drupal cloud. Heh, only took me a couple days. :-)

I can see now why you're playing with Drupal. Having a database/web thing definitely could be handy, especially since you do a lot of knitting and Coding Is Fun! :-)
