Website Update

Website Update





I finally got the Avada theme for my site. Here are a couple of things I've learned along the way: for FTP, don't get Filezilla. It installs Speeddial and Norton on your computer. Use WinSCP. You also can't send a theme over from another computer. Each time I did it from my dad's computer, it broke my site. Finally, when I got it to my site, I FTPed it to my WP-Themes folder. Then I made an entirely new front page (image at top) with a slider, content boxes, and recent posts. The fusion slider is really easy to use, so I would start with that. Favicon and logo making is easy, use these sites: for Favicon and for Logo Making.

My Trip to Italy

My Trip to Italy


I went to Italy last Saturday with my Mum, Dad, and my sister. I woke up at 4:00 am and took a cab to Gatwick airport. As we were driving, we went by the place where I used to go ice skating in Streatham. When we got there, we went through customs, security, and finally got on the plane. One hour later, we arrived at Milan Malpensa airport and took a cab to Bellagio (a small little town close to Lake Como).







After going swimming, we watched some of the World Cup then went to bed. On the next day we took a ferry to Verenna and climbed a mountain with a castle on top.







Then we went back to our hotel and watched more of the World Cup and went to bed. Then tomorrow we took a train to Milan and got into our hotel there. Then we went to a park and went back to our hotel and watched (yawn) more of the World Cup. Then tomorrow we went to the Castle Sforzesco.




Then we went back to our hotel. The next day we took a cab to Malpensa Airport and left for home. When we took a cab back, we went near Chessington World of Adventures.






Then we got home.

My New Website

My New Website


















I have new website, domain, hosting, and the Avada theme. It is called Homeschool Son.
This is my logo:





I will have a favicon like that. Unfortunately, I won't be on this site as much. When I get Homeschool Son into full speed, I will not use this site anymore. You can join my website once I figure out how you can join it. My new website will have stuff even better this one. I have had 36736 hits on this website in 4 years.
