12/23/09 09:00pMigration in progress.
12/24/09 06:00aCore theme files have successfully been moved. Plugin activations successful. Theme settings being finalized.
12/24/09 08:45aJohn Saddington has finished his preliminary work on setting the site up. Now it's up to me (Michael, here) to go through and do my thing.
12/24/09 09:05aNow compiling a list of all the items I need to personally work on, like resizing photos, changing subheads, and overall tweaking.
12/24/09 10:35aI'm been slowly working through the site, noting various nits and emailing John. Time to stop and run a few pre-Christmas errands.
12/24/09 03:24aI had to do a little extra work to get my WP Stats working again. I've also been working on some style tweaks and getting familiar with the "Featured Post" process.
12/24/09 11:36pFinished tweaking the style sheet.
12/25/09 07:27aThe kids are still asleep. Gail's wrapping presents. I'm coding!
12/25/09 06:03pI reduced my number of categories from fourteen to six. I had to re-tag over 300 posts. Fortunately, I found
a batch tool to do this.
12/25/09 09:24pI have begun replacing all the smaller images from my old three-column design, so that they fit the new two-column design. The home page is looking great!
12/26/09 02:08pI finished updating my top ten posts, along with various other tweaks. Half the fun is learning all the options in this new theme.
12/26/09 09:57pI updated the images for about 100 blogs posts today. Working on the most popular ones first.
12/27/09 09:56aJohn was able to fix a nested list problem I couldn't fix for the life of me. I'm still making good progress on updating images.
12/27/09 08:01pI've been home sick all day; however, it's afforded me the opportunity to continue loading images. We are getting close!
12/28/09 06:38aJohn and I are going through our last minutes checklists, tweaking here and there and making sure everything that is supposed to be switched on is.
12/28/09 06:38aI'm about to start bringing the site up. It's a process, so be patient.
12/28/09 08:00aAnd we're live! Thanks to John Saddington for his GREAT work!
