Donkey-Walking

Hiyas! My darling Pumakit, where are you? You didn't post a comment on the last entry... *sniffle* Anyway, first to the KitClan stuff!

Ironically, right after I posted the entry from a week ago, I suddenly got my rear in gear, as it were XD I finished the Blogs page and the blog, which looks uperly-amazing (the scrollbar looks really cool =D), and then I did the Requests page, The Request Pick-Up page, and the Stock Linkbacks page. I made 11 new stock linkback things, which is actually a lot :) There's two sets of four and one set of three. Each set was taken from the same picture, but I used different brushes/changed the eye color. You can look at one from each set:



I tried to use the kind of delicate style, sort of like the graphics made by Summerscent (Serenity Warriors) and Dawncloud (StarClan's Essence), instead of my usual, sort of bold style, if you know what I mean. I think the new stock things are much better than my old ones, and I'm considering taking the old ones off because they really aren't special in any way. Now I'm going to finish the last page for graphics, the Website Layouts! I tried to figure out how to center a layout again yesterday, and then I tried about an hour ago, but the stupid computer isn't appreciating my efforts. So for now I'm just putting my new premade, "Dancing Shamrocks," to the left. It doesn't look quite as good that way, but whatever, I'm sick of trying to make it centered. If anyone knows how to center a layout properly, please let me know!
"Dancing Shamrocks" is the only layout that will be up for use, because the "Wild Angels" one sucked (I'm gonna redo it someday) and the "Love Story" layout isn't cross-browser yet (I also did massive changes to it-- it's now aligned on the left as well, and the menus were resized). I'll have to double check that "Dancing Shamrocks" still looks okay in different browsers after the realigning. On school computers I checked KitClan's personal layout in Firefox after the revisions, and it looks fine.
Things on my KitClan to-do list are:
-Do Website Layouts page.
-Start Extras page.
-Make Reviews page.
-Make a "Good Resources" list.
-Redo my "Cbox Smilies", which are your basic smilies only in different colors and with ears.
-Make a Warriors name generator.
-Rewrite linkback tutorial and textarea tutorial.
-Email staff with all info.
-Go through Gmail and reply to emails.
-Make sure there aren't any bad links/old things on new site.
-Open!!! Yay x 100! I was considering opening it on Valentine's Day, but I don't think I'll have enough time before then :'( I'm gonna try, though!

So... there's not really anything else to say. Oh, wait, I need to explain the blog's title! It's a rather funny story...
So my daddy was on a business trip this week, for 3-4 days. He got back at two in the morning yesterday ^^ My parents always go on a walk up our road every night just for fun and exercise. I don't usually go with them, but I feel bad when my mom is at a quilt retreat and my dad has to do it alone or, as was the case this week, my dad is on a business trip and my mom has to walk by herself. One of our dogs is always too lazy and he just sleeps all day, and the other one (our German Shepherd) is extremely hyper but has this... er... problem of trying to kill other dogs whenever she sees them (our neighbors are terrified of her), so neither dog ever comes on walks anymore. Anyway, I was debating on riding my pony on Wednesday, and then I thought of riding her on the walk instead. My mom thought this was a good idea, so when we got home from school, I ate a snack and then caught my pony and started to tack up. My mom came out eventually and helped me finish, and then we felt bad for my donkey, because he was staring at his girlfriend sadly and not wanting her to leave ;) So we decided to take him with us. He isn't trained for riding, so we just took his halter and put it on his head, and then pulled him out of the corral. So we went on the walk with me riding my Tiggle Winkle and my mom walking with our donkey on the lead rope. At one point we ran into one of our neighbors and his dog. The dog was really curious but was keeping her distance and barking, but our donkey didn't like that at all. So he was about to trample her when my mom jerked on the lead rope and he stopped. It was pretty funny, though. On Thursday, we did it again but our donkey kept stopping. If you don't know, donkeys are seriously really stubborn, and if they don't want to move, you sure as heck aren't going to make them. We got him to keep walking, but it was just to hard.

Go donkey-walking sometime! It's quite fun, our donkey is just like our lazy dog xD

*yawns* I'm gonna go take a shower now... see ya!
