The awesomeness that is WordPress and child themes

By Ananda | Published: July 8, 2010
After a long long long time, I decided to get back into some actual website experimentation. For a while, I was really lazy with my site design and settled on using the Atahualpa theme. This was a great be-lazy theme, but I noticed that while browsing other sites, it often became too obvious which sites [...]

By Ananda | Published: May 20, 2010
Google just launched the Google Font Directory (beta, of course) and the Google Font API which provides web-designers with an easy way to extend the font options that tend to limit many websites. Using the service is pretty simple: go to the font directory, find the font you want to use, and follow the simple [...]

Google Page Creator is gone….

By Ananda | Published: November 23, 2009
And, they didn’t do such a great job of transferring the Google Page Creator content to Google Sites. So, I’ve decided to delete the content from Google Page Creator and transfer it here instead. This site has so much random content already; four more random articles shouldn’t make too much of a difference. Read on [...]

Disappearing Photos

By Ananda | Published: August 10, 2009
I was looking through my posts the other day and I just realized that somehow, my Gallery2 installation totally disappeared. What that means, unfortunately, is that there are a whole bunch of old posts (like my 2007 India Vacation posts) which have a whole bunch of broken links. Browsing through my file manager, I found [...]

More websites…. I’m on a roll….

By Ananda Mahto | Published: July 6, 2008
Like I said in my last post, I’ve been trying to keep myself busy. This time, it is a website to highlight student life and student work at the Tata-Dhan Academy. What can I say? When the students don’t try to test my skills at detecting plagiarism, I actually enjoy a lot of the work [...]

2657 Productions is going to get a facelift

By Ananda Mahto | Published: June 23, 2008
I’ve been trying to keep myself busy recently. As I mentioned in my earlier post about the DAMN It! website, one of the reasons I did it was to experiment with some layout stuff.

Exciting day!

By Ananda Mahto | Published: October 14, 2006
Amy has decided to join me in my online adventures by setting up a website on my site! It’s work related, and she refuses to write anything about herself on there, but I guess that’s fine—everyone will just have to learn about how cool she is through her work instead. Anyway, setting up the page [...]
