In reply to: File Is CorruptedThe files aren’t corrupted. They more than likely were damaged in the download.
Delete what you have and download them again.

In reply to: Blogroll – Why do I need it?You don’t “need” it, is the simple answer.
Why would you want it? If you have a list of favorite blogs, or other online sites you visit you can list them in a blogroll.
If you care to delete it you must go into your “sidebar.php file”
I assume you are using the default Kubrick theme.If so look for this code in sidebar.php
<li><h2><?php _e('Links'); ?></h2>
<ul>
<?php get_links('-1', '<li>', '</li>', '<br />'); ?>
</ul>
</li>You can do one of two things with this code. You can delete it. Not a good thing. If you decide at a later date to use a blogroll you will have to recode it.
The better method would be to “comment” the code. ie make it invisible to the browser. Compare the code above with this “commented” code.
<!-- <li><h2><?php _e('Links'); ?></h2>
<ul>
<?php get_links('-1', '<li>', '</li>', '<br />'); ?>
</ul>
</li>
-->Note at the beginning there is this
<!--and at the end there is this-->That should “delete” (actually make invisible) your links or blogroll.

In reply to: Anybody Home?F’jarr Foss, not being one that tends towards the PC state of mind I suggest your delusional.
Do a search using “newbie” or its many variants. You will discover you part of a group (with an unanswered question) that is about 1/10th of 1 percent of all questions asked.
Try that with service at Wal-Mart, and they make 10 dollars an hour.

In reply to: My ImplentationI like it as well, with one exception.
The page hit counter looks out of place. If possible change colors to match your color scheme, or place it in the footer so it is not so obvious.

In reply to: my new green family blogYep your correct, it is GREEN.
On another note, and I say this after attempting the same.
I note your are allowing people other than yourself to register a post entries to your blog. That may work OK for awhile.But… as your blog gets exposure beyond your close friends and relatives it will invite all sorts of nutjobs, spammers, and various and sundry other “undesireables” to register.
Just a word of caution
