04:46

one cloud that's been hanging over my head is in my sleepless daze I left my camera and pictures between the car rental drop off and gate in las vegas. I've been calling rental car/airport/airline - no luck. I've scraped together pictures taken by friends and family, which I'm going with for the article, but that mistake created some resistance.

04:51

I spent more time on jwrd sales than I'd planned. following up with previous leads and also generated a few new promising ones. I did that instead of working through the article backlog.

04:56

on the hawaii article itself, I used hanbot's tinyscheme + gimp method to resize the pics and jfw's script to create the scaffolding. one thiing I'm unsure about now though is when I preview the article, only the links to the pics show. when I click the links the pics open fine in a new tab, but they're not being rendered in the article.

04:59

not sure if they'll actually be rendered when I publish or if I did something wrong. for further context, I used hanbot's 1024x638px dimensions. not sure if that's too big for my theme. I see jfw used 720px width.

05:04

dorion: sounds like something done wrong, yes; have you tried viewing one of the thumbnail URLs individually?

05:10

hm, I recall my script did both those things in one pass so did you modify it or what? if so, could paste the new version

jfw to bed

05:20

jfw, I modified the width parameter and removed the imagemagick lines. here is the script and here is the diff.

~ 19 minutes ~

05:40

hm, the "f" loop variable isn't serving any purpose there anymore, but still looks like it should work, assuming the scheme code matches up. How about the earlier question? e.g. right click broken thumbnail -> View Image, what happens?

dorion: from that paste, it looks like you should have 2 files there for each pic and if you say it doesn't render, it would seem like the -1024px.jpg file is missing/not found; did you check that url directly/that file being where the src of <img src=... > points to?

09:05

http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/ossasepia/2020-01-17#1015311 - that sounds like it took way longer than you expected.

quite a pity though.

http://logs.ossasepia.com/log/ossasepia/2020-01-18#1015316 - sales leads do have priority but there still has to be somewhere some time for getting back to your blog too; it's not all that unrelated either.

19:41

lobbes: do take pingbacks out of recent comments on your blog; see the patch

diana_coman, dorion: I recall seeing the comment and pondering a bit but looks like I did miss responding, huh. Thanks for pointing it out.

http://logs.ericbenevides.com/log/ossasepia/2020-01-18#1015339 << yeah, overall I liked the final result but indeed it took me 11 hours (from my estimated 6).. not sure why I'm so slow with writing

and roger that on the pingbacks-in-recent-comments vpatch. I'll apply that today

~ 1 hours 20 minutes ~

patch applied, and ty for the prod. I'll say it is a pleasure to not have a cluttered sidebar anymore

23:13

lobbes: while you're at it, I heartily recommend maxing out the recent posts [articles] and comments counts too
