headstaggers – Richard`s classy website

A bit of downtime on the way

The router will be replaced in the next few days (I haven`t decided when I`ll do this.. could be tonight or tomorrow night) so expect a bit of down time. Hopefully this`ll take about 30 minutes maximum as I need to ensure the firewall / port forwarding is set up for the network. UPLAOD CODEZ!!!1

On top of this, I`ve been blessed with membership of the rubberfeet crew! Check out the linky for hot celebrity action!

I haven`t done much new stuff on the site since the new thing went live, apart from a few b3ta pictures. However some fantastic pics have come through for the Illustrated Smiths, which is great! [...]

God you love it. You want to kiss it, and you want to smell its bum.

Well bollocks to it, thought I.

I`ll post another message closer to the time. I bet you can hardly wait.

Woo! All nice and shiny

The nuke-age of the server and installation of Ubuntu Hoary Hedgehog took a bit longer than expected. This was mainly due to some kind of locale configuration problem; the installation scripts started going bananas when they encountered unicode nasties, causing the installer to cry with “corrupt tarball” messages even though they were verified by the installer. Meh to that, otherwise the site would have been live again at around 11pm last night!

Anyway, finally got the bugger going quite nicely, and it seems a bit more responsive than SUSE 9.2, so it`s all good.

Next up is a bit of a site redesign (which I`ve yet to start) to try to make the place look [...]

A ringtone for the ladies

Oh yes, just for you sexy chicks out there, I`ve created a really sensual ringtone animation.

I hope you like your Burberry lightly sprinkled with parsley.
