Domain Registrar Issues
It has always amazed me that registering a domain could be so easy at the time of registration and then such a pain in the ass after you have it registered and want to move it. I have friends that say the same thing about marriage, but that is another rant. Once a domain [...]
New Theme: Diurnal
I was really excited when the Sandbox competition was on and I came across a great theme in Diurnal! It is an amazing theme that changes the header with the time of day! I came across this particular theme after doing some quick searching on Adam’s site and then came across a link to a [...]
My URL’s Are Screwy
I have managed to crash my bluehost box a couple of times now and since they are not happy with me, I will just do my testing there and quit screwing up my blog. So, until the domains go through the DNS changes again, my blog will just be showing trent.wordpress.com. After a day or [...]
Wordpress Page Of Flickr
I spoke a couple of days ago about getting Gallery 2 running in integration with one of my sites! It would now be extremely useful to integrate with the gallery that I am actually using for my major album, Flickr! After some diligent searching for flickr plugins that integrate [...]

MILAN, Italy — Can’t get to Milan to see Leonardo Da Vinci’s masterpiece “The Last Supper?”
As of Saturday, all you need is an Internet connection. Officials put online an image of the “Last Supper” at 16 billion pixels — 1,600 times stronger than the images taken with the typical 10 million pixel digital [...]

Kingpin Amish Closing Video
I have to post this wicked song from Blues Traveler on the closing credits of “Kingpin” because not only is it amusing to see them play as Amish, but a great song. John Popper can play the harmonica like no man!

Gallery Possibilities
Don’t get me wrong, I love my current gallery located over at flickr! I am really impressed with not only the pleasant way that it looks, but more impressed with the administration. Having the ability to do so much with your tagging, sets and collections is just perfect for someone hoping to put their photo [...]

Gravatar Enter Wordpress.com
I have been away, but I guess the news of late is that Automattic has now purchased Gravatar! This is pretty wicked news since the list of benefits are also in that post, but my favorite is the speed increase!
I have a couple of plugins that work well with Gravatar and the [...]
Trent’s Covers
Music is one of my biggest passions. I started playing guitar when I was 16 years old and was self taught. I really enjoy guitar the most because it is something that not only can play a tune, but also be played to keep up a beat without any other instruments. [...]
bbPress is “Officially” 1 Year Old Today!
I know that Matt had bbPress going since 2004, but of the official ‘releases’ are concerned, it was exactly 1 year ago today that bbPress 0.7.2 was released with nickname “bix”! I personally have been involved with bbPress from shortly after that release and love it as a forum software!
bbPress has come [...]
Onvertigo Nightmare
I am having so many issues with my database for onvertigo.com of late that we did some serious upgrading. Problem with that is that I no longer have a database with any information that I can use! I would manually have to change all the entries to fit the database and then the users and [...]
