So I have spent all sorts of time learning / working on AJAX. The new design of the site was supposed rely heavily upon it. However I have been fighting with it all this week only to decide that there are too many limitations to the scripts I need.

For example: You can’t load a full page with AJAX, the headers can’t be loaded which means I can’t have it load scripts inside of them…. ding ding ding. Then I was going to use another AJAX script to load all the breakout sections of this site into a lightbox type of thing. However that is limited by the type of content you can put in as well. I don’t need scripts in them, but It won’t let me put flash or a few other things in it…. Which makes it NOT HELPFUL to me again.

I have this vision for what the site is supposed to be and I thought I knew how to do it, but now I am thinking I need to take a different approach. I am going to keep trying to get it to be how I want, but it’s going to take me longer. Not to mention that I have been going bonkers trying to do all my work on my roommate’s laptop, which DOES NOT have the juice to multi-task like I need it to. I am still waiting for them to send me my bloody replacement mobo, and I always end up talking to the same asshole at MSI who likes to “accidently” hang up on me a lot when I ask him why they are being so inefficent!

I said I would launch site this week and I CAN… but you really don’t want me to with the state it’s in. Basically you would see shell of new design, with the old sections, loading a somewhat old way. So for now, just enjoy what’s here (like this new blog that everybody except 1 person was too lazy to register for).
