Lotusphere - Over Done ... or is it??

David DeWell  |     |  Tags:  message bleedyellow lotus lotusphere drive  |  Comments (1)

 The one thing that I am seeing all over the place is this let down revolving around Lotusphere being over. Sure, we are not around 9000 fellow yellow-bleeding geeks, but who is to say Lotusphere is truly over. As an event - yes - we are not at the Swan and Dolphin and killing our normally dormant bodies - but is the idea of Lotusphere truly over.

 

So - what am I getting at? It is this -

 

The messages you heard, felt, blogged about, wrote notes on... etc etc... this is now YOUR time to turn in to the speaker. You have many people in your organization that did not here or see what you did as 'Sphere attendees. Pass the message along of what IBM/Lotus has given us. Get people excited about what speakers gave you.

 

We are Lotus Professionals. Argueably some of the most staunch supporters of our own products and craft. You have a drum - beat it. You have the message - shout it out. The energy you got from Lotusphere - drive it home. (And if you have Microsoft Professionals - make sure you rub it in their faces how cool your stuff is)

 

And last - but DEFINATELY not least - remember this site. Bleedyellow is not going ANYWHERE. It is here. It is NOT like Lotusphere Online that disappears after awhile. Keep blogging, keep checking, keep talking, keep up the message!

 

Thanks everyone for a great Lotusphere 2008!

How to customize your BleedYellow blog!!

David DeWell  |     |  Tags:  blog bleedyellow customize connections  |  Comments (0)

Create your blog if you have not already.

  1. When you are signed in and looking at your blog, you will see a section to the right of the page called, "Edit this Blog" - right below it you will see a link called "Settings". Click this.
  2. On the this page, click on "Theme"
  3. Click on the button "Customize"
  4. Click on the "Templates" link. Here you will see
    1. "Weblog" - this is the main part of the blog. it handles all of the blog posts and everything except for the header and footer. 
    2. "_css"  - this the style sheet for the whole blog. You can make all changes as far as style here.
    3. "_header" and "_footer" - just as it says header and footer of the blog. Best not to touch these too much.

Best place to start customizing is in the "_css" page. Also, if you click on the "Create and Edit" tab, you will see a link to upload files. This would be the best place to put graphics and such. So for instance, what I did with my blog was to upload the question.png file the is on bleedyellow.com right now to my blog. Once I did this, I got the address of it and entered it in to the _css.
For Example - This is what is in my _css file :

 


body {  
background-color: black;
background-image: url('http://www.bleedyellow.com/blogs/portaldomosphere/resource/question.png');
}


Now your background-image will be different of course but otherwise, this will put that as the background image and then make the rest of the background black.

-D
