First off I want to say Thank you to DeeEmm and Houstonlively for responding to a few of my questions and NOT responding to them as well. No, I'm not being funny at all; I'm being absolutely serious right now. Don't get me wrong when I was in the middle of needing that "quick answer," the "Not" responding part pissed me off. But now that I've accomplished what I needed to accomplish I truely want to thank you for leaving me hanging in certain areas.
What do I mean by this?
Well basically what I mean is that both of these people gave me enough information to build off of. They didn't just down right give me the answer. They made me take what they gave me, research it and learn how to do it on my own. I think this is the best way of showing someone how to do something. It's much more rewarding to figure it out on your own with just a "little" help. I now uderstand the reasoning behind NOT getting a straight forward answer.But I will admit that It would drive me crazy drinking in the small amount of information they would give me. I would wonder to myself, "what the hell am I going to do with this crap." But what I realized was that I was motivated enough to use what was given and figure out the rest.
What did I accomplish?
I accomplished the changing of my URL. Houstonlively gave me the golden key to figuring this out,(thank you) It was all about that good old "permalink" and the "uri." (the uri was what I had to figure out on my own)
AAAANd now I'm spent! Building this Dolphin site was a huge headache but it was really fun. Now I'm going to take some time and I'm going to scope the forums to help people who are looking for a little assistance. I will say that for this being my first social networking site, it turned pretty damn good. 369 days is how long it took for me to get a basic understanding of how Dolphin works.Was it worth it? for the most part, yes it was.
kudos, on getting your site running. many have been on the same route as you, see more
