Oh, just do things in order

So, I took the list/view assignment doc, borrowing the printer at the office (since I currently don't have a working printer at home) and thought I understood how to just invent something for myself so that I'd have an inventory to use for my assignment. I can't use the database for my friend's site because it's way too big and not on a system I'm comfortable configuring, so I'm just going to make something up.

I figure I'll do a virtual garage sale, since my husband and I are marginally employed, and I'd love to get rid of some things, but my condo association doesn't allow garage sales. I suppose that's why we have Craig's List...

Anyway, I spent too much time trying to understand photoshop, and not enough on the meat of my assignment, so now it's late and I'm tired so I'm just going to run the muffin demo and see what happens. One good thing did come out of the waste of effort with photoshop, and that is that I figured out how I can generate the space I need for the lovely logo a friend made for me ONLY on the first page, and then leave the rest of the pages with the same CSS file, but without the image or the forced spaces. It'll be cleaner, and the images I'll need for the books and whatever will stand out more on the pages.

So, about 3 hours wasted with photoshop, and 1 hour creating the demo for muffins. I need to get the muffin images uploaded (well, downloaded and then uploaded) to see the full meal deal. I can take pictures myself for the garage sale (another benefit of choosing that for my list/view assignment) but I'll use the same naming conventions we're using in the demo. I like the idea - it's clean and simple.

Off to watch monk and get some herbal tea. Enough for today.
