"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

I can't speak to the stability of the theme.

You can back up your current site by installing a plugin. I have one that emails me a backup of the database every week.

Template installation, in my limited experience, is pretty straightforward. It generally involves some poking around to determine where the controls are for various options.

amych is the Wordpress guru I'm aware of.

I'm off to find that. Thanks!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Hey, beekaytee, I'm no longer doing any freelance work/consulting and haven't for some time; I'm happy to help out here (or in the tech thread, which i think gets a lot more traffic) with general support-type questions, though!

Cheers, amych!

I may have a lead on someone to do the initial installation, but could probably use some support moving forward.

I'll migrate my questions over to tech. Thanks so much!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hiya. I seem to be starting up a company to do preservation trades work on my own, mostly carpentry. I've come up with a name - Verdigris Preservation - but I'm trying to come up with a slogan below is my brainstorming so far... I would love to get y'all's spicy brains to help me out. Some are possible slogans, some are just values I want to represent in my business.

I will likely be reglazing windows, fixing pocket doors, replacing rotted wood and the like. It's all still a bit fuzzy.

Verdigris Preservation

Buildings, Aging gracefully
The green in gray
Helping your home age gracefully
Respect your home's history
Specializing in...
Thoughtful repairs
Carpenter karma
Balancing history and function
Weathered beauty
The beauty of old buildings
Carrying a torch for old buildings
Craftsmanship

Thoughtful repairs with respect for your home's history.

I actually love all of these. Let me noodle for a bit and see which shake out. But seriously? I love them all and I'm so pleased for/proud of you!

I like

Helping your home age gracefully

but maybe it's not a good idea to mention age? Laura's is nice.
