Dandyman.us is my personal weblog for a number of personal hobbies including web design, guitar, and gaming. I use the site to post tutorials, information, and commentary on a variety of topics.

The site is powered by WordPress, as most of my sites are, and features a highly customized version of Evan Eckard’s Notepad Chaos theme. The theme was released by Smashing Magazine for the WordPress community and it has been my most ambitious design customization to date. Extensive XHTML code changes and some significant changes to the original Photoshop design have taken a Evan’s theme in a completely different direction.

TheFarlands.Net is the personal weblog of Donald and Christy Farland.  The site was created to help share stories, photos, and stay in touch with family and friends all over the world.

The site is based on the popular WordPress publishing system and features a high quality theme called “WordPress.Fun” made possible by the folks at Smashing Magazine.  I made some minor modifications to the site design to improve search rankings, added Google AdSense code blocks and implemented a flash based photo gallery.
