However, I need to replace the photos displayed in the top-right corner. While the ones that come with the theme are very pretty, none of them are mine.

I’m sure my thousands (dozens? anyone?) of readers were sorely disappointed. Or maybe not. I’ve even considered taking my blog offline once the current domain registration expires. However, I’ve decided to renew, and will start blogging again.

There’s going to be some changes. First, I’ve switched to the Blue Grace/Amazing Grace theme by Vladimir Prelovac. It’s attractive without being overly-garish, so we’ll see how it goes. Second, I’m going to go through old posts, and I fully expect to send some of them down the memory hole. Even I say something stupid occasionally. Third, I expect to simplify categories and tags, as I currently have a lot of overlap between the two. Fourth, I’m not sure, but I’ll probably think of something.

Akismet catches almost all of it, so I can mostly ignore it. However, that traffic places an undue burden on the server and clogs my access logs. Since there’s very little real commenting on this blog, I’ve decided to install the Comment Timeout plugin. This plugin will automatically close comments and trackbacks on old posts. I’ve set a timeout of 30 days, and we’ll see how that goes.

Dreamhost provides Gallery, so that’s what I went with.

Take a look at:

My first photo gallery includes a few pics of my recent trip to Hong Kong. Enjoy!
