Are you a plugin developer for a particular forum or do freelancing?

I don't do freelancing any more, it's not worth the hassle.

 

But I'm slowly trying to set up an XF forum so I can launch it and there isn't really a plugin to do quite what I want so I'm building it myself. (Wouldn't be the first time I've built plugins for platforms to build sites; every WordPress I build gets a custom theme often with custom plugin-like dev, and previous SMF sites I did much the same for)

Holder of controversial opinions, all of which my own.

I hear that! I tried sites like Freelancer.com before and it's a competitive market.

Awesome! Keep us updated, and I wish you the best of luck! :)

That's actually not the reason, not really.

 

I used to freelance but I found that a) I spent a disproportionate amount of time doing admin/sales/chasing clients which is all stuff I don't enjoy and aren't particularly good at and b) that I ended up working far too many hours, frequently into 80+ hour weeks without even realising it.

 

Eh, I was younger then, it was a decade ago that I did that. I'm happier with a more reasonable work-life balance.

Those both sound like good reasons freelancing can bog you down. I know when I tried freelancing I either didn't have enough knowledge to do what the user wanted done or there was little to no interest in my services to begin with.

Hey everyone, I've been taking a break from discussions, especially webmaster-related ones. I feel like I might be back in action now!

Afternoon all!

 

Today is most definitely Monday. It has that Monday-ish smell that ambushes you and drags you into that sense of “oh no, not again”. Rather like a very specific bowl of petunias I can think of.

I got pulled over by the police today. On my driveway. My front window is tinted in mirror blue. Not allowed to have that, I knew when I did it, so it was a matter of time until they pulled me over. On top of that, my speed was a bit too much, but they didn’t include that on the paper. Just a warning for the tint, and I need to take it off and show it within 10 days.

 

Overall they were pretty cool guys.

Just a warning for the tint

It's much better than a ticket, my friend!

 

Today is the day we start putting all the Christmas decorations up.

Happy Friday!

I'm off today and I've been pretty productive thus far!

 

My mother and father are leaving to visit my sister in West Virginia tomorrow. There was snow in the forecast there, but it turned into rain.

 

18 more days till Christmas!

Looking at nudes are we?

Happy Sunday! Getting closer to Christmas!

Looking at nudes are we?

The only nudes I look at are nude boards that need to be coded.

I wrote a lot of words. Holy heck that was a lot of words.

No shit. I want to read it but it's going to take me a day. lmao.

You can see how come I managed to finish NaNoWriMo twice in the past (each time: write a 50,000 word novel in the month of November, no editing, just writing)

Definitely better than getting a ticket for sure.

Just got back from hiking.

 

A state park had a Gnome Roam challenge.

 

Yes, really. LOL.

 

We completed all 7. Myself and my wife.

 

Did about 5 miles total on 6 trails. One Gnome was at a Trailhead because the trail was closed for hunting. It's currently shotgun season here.

 

Got a cool patch for doing it. All free and fun!
