Did you notice? I have been working for about 10months on this HUGE REVAMP of this website and IT’S FINALLY HERE!!! For years I have wanted to turn this website into something new, even more useful. FresnoFamily.com started as a labor of love for just ME wanting something to catalog all the local things to Read more…
I just deleted the webpage that was all about City Ordinances. This is a page that I created probably a decade or so ago, from info that was given to me on a local election flier. I don’t even remember what candidate it was, but thought it was interesting that they had all these city Read more…
Hello FresnoFamily.com’rs! Webmama Tina here! I am pleased to share with you guys that I recently got a plugin for this site that checks for broken links! (OK, might not be exciting to you, but this geek mom is excited to clean things up around here!) And there’s a lot of them here on this Read more…
Just wanted to give a heads up that I have received several emails recently from people trying to register with FresnoFamily.com that have run into problems doing so. I’ve looked into this and so far cannot figure out why they are having problems, as I was able to register a test account without problem, as Read more…
Just a heads up that I’ve recently condensed all the info from 2 menu bars into 1. All the same info is still there, it’s just been grouped differently to conserve space and look tidier. For example, I’ve put things like the pregnancy/birth and children’s activities sections under “parenting” now. If you have any problem Read more…
From July 9-15, my 11.5yr old daughter Maeven will be featured in a PSA for The Discovery Center on both KJWL (99.3 FM) and KYNO (940 AM)! We are very proud of her! She did an outstanding job! And in case you miss it, here it is:
I’m fiddling with the menu bars again…and I seem to have messed them up…don’t worry, I’ll get it sorted out. But I need to go do family stuff for a bit and then I’ll get back onto this again as soon as I can. Should (hopefully) be fixed tonight sometime.
Don’t mind me…if you notice the fonts seem wacky…I’m trying some new ideas for a bit of a change to FresnoFamily.com. Want to find a snazzier font for the site, playing around with some. We’ll see how it goes. 🙂
Notice anything different about FresnoFamily.com today? It’s not a huge difference, but you may notice that I’ve taken out the left sidebar menu and added a second horizontal navigation bar to place that info in instead… (and moved around some of the sidebar widgets…those blocks of info on the sidebars.) I am wanting to eliminate Read more…
This year, I have a goal to bring more traffic to FresnoFamily.com (which, after 11years, boasts over 800 visits PER DAY!!) and I need YOUR HELP! If you love FresnoFamily.com…if you appreciate all that I’ve gathered here, and continue to gather and update… If you like having a place to read about local events and Read more…
I am in the process of updating the kids sports page and would really like some input from local families as to what is out there. My family is not a sports family, and neither are any of our friends so I am completely out of the loop and need your help to update the Read more…
Adding back the links to the rest of the pages on FresnoFamily.com today…The pages are still here, just the links disappeared when I switched to a different theme. This morning my goal is to get them all back up so hang in there and I’ll let ya know when it’s done! 🙂
Its taking longer than I expected to get all the page links back up on the menu. Bear with me. They’ll all be back again very soon! 🙂
If you’re looking at this this morning and think things look a little wonky at FresnoFamily.com…you’re right…I am currently fiddling with the new theme I created. So hang in there, it will be less wonky very soon. Still trying to get it just the way I want it. 🙂
I am slowly working my way through FresnoFamily.com’s webpages, looking for inaccurate and outdated info. There’s a LOT of pages, so it would help me greatly if anyone notices any errors or corrections that they would let me know. 🙂 I’m always happy for the help.
I’m currently in the process of helping a non-local friend create a local site for her area, similar to FresnoFamily.com, and it has me thinking of all sorts of great ideas for FresnoFamily.com. Also she has some really fabulous ideas that I just can’t resist using! So stay tuned for more new things and tweaks Read more…
Not a single person has submitted an entry! :(Come on people, this is 6 tickets to Wild Water! That’s worth $161.94!! And all you have to do is take your family out and take a picture of them and email it to me!! 🙂 At this point, anyone that enters is going to have a Read more…
OK, I just backtracked and undid the thing that messed up FresnoFamily. All should be well now. 🙂
Bear with me folks, I seem to have fiddled with something that messed up the theme (template) for FresnoFamily.com. While I await help on how to rectify this, all the info is still here, its just not tidy right now. I have to leave the messed up theme up temporarily so my helpers can see Read more…
Phew! Its DONE! Well, there are a few little things I still need to fiddle with…but nothing that most of you would even notice…But I’ve been working on this for like 3 hours now so I’m going to go take a break and be with my family and enjoy this day! If anyone has any Read more…
OK folks, the revamp is nearly complete. It now looks mostly like its supposed to. Lastly, I have to install all the plugins that I use to make the sidebars and site function better…Those will change the look a wee bit, but for now you are able to get a feel for what the revamp Read more…
OK now you should be looking at a wooden fence with pictures (butterfly, sneakers, flower) hanging above it. Hang tight because its not ready yet! I have to upload my tweaked files that have images of Fresno locals instead of random stock images….working working working…
If you’re reading this and there’s a dark picture on top with a tree lined country road…the revamp is not yet complete. Stay tuned, I’m still working on getting the new theme up and running properly.
I’m switching to a new format for FresnoFamily.com and am in the process of redoing all the webpages with the new system. Its very exciting! Its been a LONG time since I’ve done anything major with the site, so it felt like time. I also have been really wanting to switch the site to a Read more…
I just added a “Beat the Heat” page to Fresno Family… I’m finding that its very hard to figure out what to do in the heat of summer…the heat tends to melt my brain, so in the “heat” of the moment, I am unable to think of what sort of things might be fun for Read more…
I finally figured out how to get this blog feed fed to the Fresno Family homepage!! WOOHOO!! *Doing-Meposian-Dance-Of-Joy*
I’ve not been as active online lately because I started homeschooling my 5.5yr old daughter just recently. So I’ve had to cut down my computer time considerably to focus on her, her very active little brother (almost 14months now, and getting into EVERYTHING), and trying to get this house in order so we can have Read more…
At this time I’m taking businesses to list in the mall…Its still brand new so it’ll take a little while to get things filled up.
