Welcome to azahar-sevilla.com! 🙂
For the moment I’ve just put up a wordpress blog, in order to have something up there while I figure out how to get stuff uploaded and also, um, learn to design a webpage. But I’ve actually learned quite a lot today.
The next step will be to start reading the instructions . . .

Can anyone help with a few (probably quite stupid) questions?
I presently have hosting that was set-up by the guy who designed my clothing website. What I’d like to do is register a new domain name but I also want to hold onto the URL here at azahar natural clothing.
Would this count as two domain names? Could I get the clothing website set-up as a sub-domain, or would this be a bad idea?
I’ve been looking at BlueHost, which is recommended by WordPress and which offers the following for $6.95 US a month …
My main question is about Domain Manager, Sub-domains, Add-on domains, Parked domains and Redirects. And that question is – what are they and how do they work?
Okay, I know (I think) that the free domain provided by BlueHost will be the Domain Manager. And that is the one I would want to have registered under the new name. Is there any way of doing that as well as transfer over the clothing website without having to pay for two domain names?
And while I’m making up my mind about what to do, how can I ‘save’ my new domain name?

Ever wonder what other people’s desktops look like?
No, me neither until I came across this desktop me-me over at ish’s.
Anyhow, here are mine . . .
Sexy Beast’s desktop
Jaguar’s desktop
Okay, now it’s your turn. 🙂

Remember when I was so obsessed about wanting this HP tablet? Well, I’ve changed my mind. During a trip to Fnac to visit my erstwhile heart’s desire this evening I ended up having another look at the same size Toshiba notebook and deciding that it was a better deal for the same price. It doesn’t have the cool swivel touchpad screen that’s on the HP model, but it has the same clear anti-glare screen as SB and much more. . .
Meanwhile the same two problems exist . . . that I don’t have 1200€ and I don’t have any real need for an ultra-portable groovy cool notebook. 😕

Gaaaaaaaaa!!!
For three goddamm fucking days I’ve been trying to work out a way to transfer large files (mostly films and music) from my old desktop PC – aka the Jaguar – to Sexy Beast.
First I tried setting up a home network between the two of them… six hours and two bottles of wine later I was close to a nervous breakdown. Decided to toss that idea and get a USB memory stick … easy peasy, right? Just copy the stuff from Jag and copy that onto SB. Except … some of those things were films that I also wanted to copy onto dvd so I could watch them on the television via the dvd player, rather than on the computer.
But it seems there was no way no fucking day was this going to happen. Either SB doesn’t have a dvd burner (could this be possible?) or I totally messed up how to copy stuff. In any case, it’s been three goddamm days of this and I’m about ready to throw all the computers off the balcony!
What am I doing wrong???
