In a long list of things I have to do to complete X-cito’s resurrection, perhaps one of the most critical is done. It looks like I’ve successfully upgraded WordPress. While I couldn’t go with the latest release 2.9.1 (I was blocked because my 1&1 hosting service of MySql did not meet the requirements for the latest WP version, using this chart I was able to find out which was the latest Wp version I could use with 1&1’s MySQL4.0 installation), I was at least able to get version 2.8.6 installed, which meets the minimum requirements for adding the Comic Press Plug-in

So, new WP version installed, check. Now onto re-familiarizing myself with the latest plugins available for WP, especially how to link to my Flickr gallery, and how to combat comment spam. Then I’ll be moving on to installing Comic Press, including actually getting started at drawing some comics. I need to update my resume to reflect my retiree status
