The inability to upload is killing me.
I can upload stuff on Blake’s computer, but not mine. This means it’s either my wireless (doubtful) or Dreamweaver (*sigh*) and not the server, soooooo I figured it wouldn’t be too painful to uninstall DW and try to reinstall it, pending I could find the disk and see if that fixed whatever this issue is.
I found every single disk I have for my Mac, except motherfucking Dreamweaver. I know who sent it, it was from Miss Keri Monster’s boyfriend and I STILL have the fucking envelope he sent it in along with the other programs and stuff they sent, but what the hell did I do with the actual Dreamweaver disk I was SO CERTAIN I could locate in like, 30 seconds?
*headdesk*
And I know, DW sucks, it’s a bullshit program, and I suck by association - I totally know this, but I’m extremely lazy, don’t enjoy code in the slightest (and think that people who do are weird, like my friend Steph) and I just want shit to look pretty and be easy. This is also why I use a Mac by the way, because I know I suck for that too. :D
That isn’t to say that I don’t know any code or that I don’t think with code in mind (and all webdesign that isn’t visual is all just “code” to me, which was why DW worked so well for me), I just can’t do it fluently, if that makes sense. Pausing mid-sentence to think/type “pointy thing eh href (don’t forget the space) equals (pause for air quotes) ehych tee tee pee dot-dot thingy slash slash uhn uhn whatever (air quotes) target equals (air quotes) underscoreblank (air quotes) other pointy thing…” and have the link not work and have to go back and FIX IT? That fucking sucks, I don’t have time for that shit! I need an “insert link” button and if that makes me a retard, so be it!
I’m rambling, I’ll stop.
Anyway, this could be a sign that it’s time to wean myself from DW. I’m not gonna go learn “code” or anything stupid like that (NO I WILL NOT! PHP & all that stuff can suck my ass!) but I’m thinking that if I can find a decent, idiot-proof, free, Mac-friendly ftp program, I might just uninstall it since that’s mostly what I’ve been using it for anyway and that seems to be the whole reason I can’t upload right now to begin with.
That was a really long sentence. I’m proud of that one. :)
It just sucks because right now I’ve got Gallery installed and can’t get that to work (you guessed it, nothing will upload), I can’t get my ftp to work (via DW) and I’ve got pics to post, a cam to update and shit to do!
AND I’M ON THE RAG.
So, technologically and biologically speaking, it’s just not been my week.
But I did get to spend this afternoon with Jesse, so it was still a pretty damn good day. :)

I’m sorry you’re having all those code-related troubles, Sunny. You have my sympathy, because I think the entire computing-system industry is about 25 years behind those of us who are stuck using their crap.
Their engineers are thinking how cool it is to be ’80s-style geeks, their sales departments are trying to foist “new” products on us which are just old products in shiny new packages; and we’re out here wanting to get some work done in a manner commensurate with the way things are in real life. We’re dancing to their tune while at the same time giving them our money!
What’s wrong with this picture? Where are those $100 laptops? Where’s my jet pack?

free ftp cyberduck
as for dreamweaver if you have the serial still you could just download it from their site and enter the serial.
