GanderCo News


The GanderCo Blog “News” Page

If you have been here more than once you may have noticed that I keep changing the look of the blog. To you “Techno-Geeks” you already know that the “Look” means the “Theme”, right? So to my closest Family and friends who barely know how to get on the internet, you should know that when I use the word “Theme” or “Themes”, I’m almost always referring to the “Look” of The GanderCo Blog.

Help Me Decide What GanderCo “Blog Theme” to Use!

Ok now. If you see a theme that you like try to tell me by writing me a little message in the “Comment” section of ANY POST you read. You can say something like “I like the Bright-Silver looking Theme!” or “I like the Black Theme!” (actually, I have more than one Black, or at least “Dark” theme, so this could get tricky). However you can best describe it will do, over a period of time, with your help I (we) will settle on a really cool Theme! OK?

Oh, and one more thing. If you come here to The GanderCo Blog and see that I’m using a Theme that you don’t like, please tell me so in the comments section. No, for real! I mean like, for really real! Coz if I get no help then I may use a theme that everyone hates and then you’ll never come and visit me again, right? That would hurt my feelings more than saying something like “Dude, Ditch this theme! Dark is depressing”. See? So your opinion is real real important to me, Cool?

Oops, almost forgot something quite important: If you want to tell me that you don’t (or DO for that matter) like “This Theme”, Please give some sort of description b/c whenever I change the Theme, it changes the WHOLE site, both Past and Present. So anything you wrote on a dark theme will still show, but on the most recent theme. Are we confused yet?! lol. Just say something like “The one with the green xyz” or “The black one with the pink with purple poke-a-dots” (ok, lets hope we never do that one, YIKES!)

Now, just for practice go ahead and try to leave a comment below just to make sure you know how, or at least see if you can figure out how to. Two things to know though.

1) Yes, you DO have to leave an email address in the proper box for a comment to work. But don’t worry, You email address is totally safe with me. I will NEVER give out you email address or abuse it in any way.

2) If you’re still worried about the email thing, just do what I do, which is to create a new email address using gmail (Google Mail) or Yahoo mail, and use this new email address just for the stuff like “Blog Commenting“. See? Easy   :)

3) The way this blog software works is that, if it’s your first time commenting here, your comment will not show up until after it is approved by an administrator (that’s usually me, however my Daughter Chloe often helps out some also, and she’s just Plain Awesome!).

4) Sorry if I caused you “Techno-Geeks” to read notes 1 – 3 when you already know all this stuff! Plz 4Give?  ;)

That’s all for now. Thanks Mucho much and a lot too for your help in advance!  ;)
