    Incase anyone is interested I was motivated to make some stuff this morning.

    Wow dude, thanks! Substantial feedback. I don’t know if you are familiar with it but I started with a template downloaded from http://underscores.me/ and kind of built it up from there. So far I’ve really only worked with the index, content, single, content single and footer pages.

    Some of this category stuff is a little over my head, but it’s next on my list. I’m going to try to force the footer at the bottom of the container or something.

    I think I jumped the gun a little bit and just wanted to get something out.

    Also, I checked out your website too, I like you content. I laughed at the kindle fire mayday article you put up. Good stuff man.

    Thanks for the feedback, if you are into it I can keep you posted on when I push something new to see what you think about it.

    I think i’m going to focus on making these gifs more textual in the future.

    Thanks! I’ve made cinemagraphs before and I think they can bring a thoughtful quality to a page. In this case, I just took some video footage, turned it into a gif and cut it’s file size way down, I believe this is under 2 megabytes. In the end this is just my own personal site to mess around with so I don’t care too much about it being perfect.

    did you find the background in motion distracting because it’s moving or was it playing choppy? Was it a performance or preference thing?

    i actually wanted to have a video background but i couldn’t figure out a graceful way to pull it off.

    is that all the feedback you have? did you scroll down to the actual content?

    I took the easy way out and just got rid of all js in my theme and the footer still wouldn’t show up. Even if I take all the code from the footer page and paste it at the bottom of the single.php document it still doesn’t show up. Nothing shows up at the bottom of the page, I made little styled divs and couldn’t get anything.

    Should I just throw all the js in there? Is the css cool to stay in the head? I’m new to all this php shenanigans and the functions.php file is kinda scary.

    Alright, I’ll try that. I have some js in my head too

    <html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
    <head>
    <meta charset="<?php bloginfo( 'charset' ); ?>">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <title><?php wp_title( '|', true, 'right' ); ?></title>
    <link rel="profile" href="http://gmpg.org/xfn/11">
    <link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo( 'pingback_url' ); ?>">
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
    
    <!-- STYLE SHEET IMPORTS/ I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING -->
    
    <style type="text/css" media="screen">
    @import url( <?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url'); ?> );
    @import url(<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/bootstrap.css);
    @import url(<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/bootstrap-theme.css);
    @import url(<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/turbo.css);
    </style>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/js/jquery.fitvids.js"></script>
    
    <!-- END I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M DOING -->
    
    <?php wp_head(); ?>
    </head>

    Are you saying I should probably throw that into the functions.php file too?

    I’m building my own theme based on the underscore template. I’m also working on a local environment so I don’t have a link I can point anyone to 🙁 . Do you see anything suspicious, should I provide more code?

    Boom, thanks so much!
