If you have any tutorial request, please tell me, add a comment :) I made thousands of designs for pootato.org archives but I'm satisfied with none. The next design will be very plain, I warn you XD Maybe I'll transform the designs I didn't use into Wordpress themes, but that's not before this summer…

Have a nice day/evening!

I'm not going to dramatize (and I really don't want to, it's only pixels), but it's sad she can't even do this by herself.

In the end, I'll keep the domain name, it will just be a redirection though. :) I will get rid of the paid hosting, I'm lucky enough to have access to a great free server (even though it's not as good as paid hosting, it's enough for me) so I don't want to pay for hosting anymore… I mean, Surpasshosting is great and I really do recommend them, but I have never liked paying for this hobby :X The money I made from custom designs paid for poo.org hosting but I haven't done any custom design for ages because of school, and I don't think I will ever again. Also, ads are ugly and I don't earn a lot with them :/

My exams are over and while waiting for my results, I've been working on "pootato.org:archives" :D Okay, maybe I was exaggerating a bit when I said "forever inactive contents" haha. I think I can never stop doing this site… I will stop designing though. I like codes better. Seriously, I have fun doing this website, I don't want to stop. Poo.org is 5, but if we count waatta, I think it's 6 or 7? I don't even remember D: Progress for the poo.org archives:

New layout: 100%
Wordpress adaptation: 100%
Coding tutorials: 100%
Photoshop tutorials: 100%
Downloads: 100%
Resources: 0%
Testing on IE: 0%

Wait, I lost all of you between the previous post and this one? XD To sum up, say good bye to free layouts and paid hosting, as for me, I will stop tormenting myself when I see my website dead for months. ^^; Shamelessly inactive website! haha! In fact, I have projects, but I don't know if I'll have time for them. I want to help people with their coding or wordpress troubles. :3

Hm… okay I think I should stop here or it will become a novel. Much ado about nothing…

I know it's been a very very very looong time since I last updated and this is the reason for this post. Some of you aren't going to like it, I'm afraid. I'm currently taking entrance exams for business schools, which means my two years in prépa are (finally) over. Voilà for the personal news. :)

As for this site, I've taken a difficult decision, but it was a decision to be taken, because I can't stand the fact of having an inactive website. This is why I've decided not to renew the domain… It's been five years now and I would have never thought I would close it one day, because it is my baby. XD Anyway, things have evolved since then, and I think there are tons of other websites which will be a better help for you. It may be nothing for some, but I really can't stand it. Seeing how this website is dead. And I know I am responsible for this, but I have other things keeping me busy…

Some of you have been following this site since it was called Waatta and I'm glad to have shared this with you, even if we have never contacted. I hope it's been useful! ^^;
Anyway, do not freak out. Pootato.org will only expire in december and I plan to keep the contents up, on a free server (where Waatta was). Cemetery for pootato.org, with its final design, and forever inactive contents. (Err, this sounds so gloomy! XD) Hm… Voilà, I think this is the best solution.

I hope life is cool with everyone~ Good bye (until I move the website)!

I have just made a quick PHP generator for pre-styled CSS menus. It was quickly coded, I'll improve it later. Proceed to cssmenubeta.php :D Someone requested the CSS menu tutorial, I want to re-write it before putting it online… Please wait a little! ^^;

edit: now you can add as much links as you want :)

Switched back to mootools, because mootools + slimbox = lighter than jquery and imagebox.

If you want to disable this on all your pages like me, just add this snippet in your header:

<? remove_filter ('the_content', 'wptexturize');
remove_filter ('comment_text', 'wptexturize');
remove_filter ('single_post_title', 'wptexturize');
remove_filter ('the_title', 'wptexturize');
remove_filter ('the_excerpt', 'wptexturize'); ?>

Of course, if you want to keep fancy quotes in your title, remove the corresponding line. That is to say:

remove_filter ('single_post_title', 'wptexturize');

Hope it helps!

If you want this for your website, you need… a search form! XD In your_website_title.xml file, paste this code:

<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://a9.com/-/spec/opensearch/1.1/"

<ShortName>ShortName</ShortName>
<Description>ShortDescription</Description>

<Image width="16" height="16">ImageData</Image>
<Url type="text/html" method="get" template="Site URL/?s={searchTerms}"></Url>
