Learning about HTML

I'm learning about HTML and CSS, design and principles of design in my work right now. You'll notice some changes to my blog...i'm doing it by editing the "HTML" under layout in blogger.

I remembered one rule about webpages from college: make your background image small so pages don't take more than a couple seconds to load up. I broke that rule because I like the picture of the paper bag.

There is a way around this: I can make the image smaller and have it repeat. I'll work on that. As for right now, enjoy the image "wipe" across the screen.

SPIRITUAL REFERENCE: I started this blog so I could log my own thoughts to share with others what I was thinking about spiritually. How does all this HTML relate to spiritual life? Well, much like my web pages, I am constantly 'under-construction' on the inside. I only display what is going on internally.

How's that?

Brandon Hampton - Perfected in Love Chords

Image
Hi there. A great guitar teacher told me that the best way to improve "play by ear" (or ear training) was to transcribe songs.  So, that is what I've been practicing.   When I find a song I like that isn't really out there on the interwebs, I like to share my work in transcribing. Here's Mr. Brandon Hampton's song "Perfected in Love" As with many IHOP-community songs, there's the 4 tags at the end at your disposal...make sure to develop your own.  Same chords repeated. P.S. - Brandon, thanks for leading from electric.  Me gusta. Perfected In Love Brandon Hampton Key: B (figure out the melody played on guitar... it’s not too tough...  hint: B major scale, begin on F#) intro E - F# - G#m E - F# - G#m E - F# - G#m E - F# - G#m - B Oh...oh...oh... verse E - F# - G#m Surely goodness E - F# - G#m And mercy follow me E - F# - G#m - B All the days of my life E - F# - G#m Before

UPDATED 2021! Free your Freegal Music - Freegal App to iTunes [Your Music or MP3 Player]

UDPATE 1/21 OK - well, out of more responsibility  I had to figure out a legal  way to put mp3's on my son's simple mp3 player he got for Christmas this year (it's a $30 one from amazon...) Advertised as a kid-friendly player, I knew the features included a 'drag and drop' feature for mp3's.   Now that Apple has gone the way of 'music' the instructions below (original post!) are basically ancient history, but I'll leave them here for anyone who might want to refer to them. New instructions for 'freeing your freegal' music are as follows. First, I am assuming that you are using an app on a mobile device to 'download' the music to that device. 1. download music (3-7 songs a week for most folks on Freegal) to your mobile device. 2. connect your mobile device to a real computer  (sits on a desk or your lap, you know). 3. open up Finder or Open Device (depends on your platform) 4. find "Files" (on iPhone) 5. find the Freegal app

Update: August 4, 2012 Here's the most recent edition.  We sang this in our local church gathering last week...so, it's been proven to work.  Enjoy.  I've included the bass walk in the verses.  If you have that low - B string...it brings that extra emphasis in the end...
