To create a site through the CheezBurger Network you will first need a Cheezburger account. Just go to  cheezburger.com and click the “Get Started Now !!1!” button. For those of you who don’t know, the Cheezburger network is a collection of sites that each have funny/cute/just plain cool pictures and videos based on a certain theme, for example memebase’s theme is internet memes (You don’t say?). CheezBurger sites allow you to take anything from any of their sites and put it on yours.

February 19, 2012 in Tumblr

((first read Tumblr Basics))

Missing e. is an application for Firefox, Google Chrome, and Safari that adds some extra functionality to Tumbl. If you use Internet Explorer, Opera, or some hipster web browser that I have probably never heard of just stop reading now. Here’s what it adds:

 1. Ask Tweaks!

missing e. allows you to add a scroll bar to your answers, and adds new private, queue, and draft buttons. plus it adds tags to your

2. Better Reblogs!

Missing e allows you to choose whether to keep the original post’s tags and lets you create text reblogs of Ask posts

3. Bookmarks

Makes it so you can bookmark posts and pin them to your dashboard.

4. Crushes

A silly little feature that lets you post your Tumblr crushes based on your watch list .

This is just a small look at what missing e. can do. More posts showcasing all of missing e’s features will be posted eventually, but if you cant wait click here: http://bit.ly/zvjDpV

This is just the basics of tumblr; no themes, no missing e, just the basics.

1) Text

Just a normal blog post. the only things you can put on here are text and images, very simple.

2) Photo

You can also put pictures and text in here but this way the picture will be the focus of the post

3) Quote

Adds a quote to your blog. Usually looks like a post with with large quotation marks somewhere around the border.

4) Link

Adds a link to your blog without all that messy html. Plus,a link that just says “broke blogger” looks a lot better than http://www.connorstuff.com

5) Chat

Gives you an IM-esq conversation on your blog. (Warning: does not actually give you live chat on your blog)

6) Audio

Play an audio file on your site, whether its your band’s new song or your rant against chickens, people can listen to it online. I cannot promise you that they will, but they can.

7) Video

Adds a video to your blog. You can either upload files directly from your computer or use the URL of a Youtube video.

8)

Your blogs. Click on any of these to see the posts on that blog.

9)

Add a new blog. You can have multiple blogs on one tumblr account! This means your dog can have a blog too!

Our New Cat

December 11, 2011 in OLD, Uncategorized

We finally got a cat! His name is Sloan, and he is 6 months old. He is going to be a very big cat when he grows up, but right now he’s just a pile of fluff and love and cat. He purrs all the time and we are hoping to get a little friend for him to play with. Pictures to come.
