(2) Once I received the "Creating new website" prompt, I could see files added to my dropbox. Yet I still received an "oops, something went wrong error" on brace.io. Brace.io prompted me to reselect a valentine's URL (I kept the same) and went back to "creating new website" graphic. Failed again. Refreshed.
(3) After #2 failed again following the refresh, I changed the url name after getting the "whoops something went wrong," which sent a POST request containing the old url title instead of the new one. I'm not sure if this is functioning as expected. After that hung for a minute or so, I went to #4.
(4) Finally, I tried the original URL, which prompted me to administer the page at admin.insertvalentineurlhere.brace.io. That works!
I don't even use Dropbox. How did it get full? :/
This year I got her three locked wooden boxes with numbers written on them. The numbers represent the miles she has to travel to unlock them using a companion app called MapStreak (www.mapstreak.com).
Making apps for people close to you is a great way to explore new technology without all the pressures or time commitment of starting a full - fledged side project.
I'm a backend programmer, but it was fun to learn bootstrap 3 and put something together, and run it through google pagespeed :-). It was a good week of effort, along with helping her learn markdown.
I've always been envious of my talented artist friend who does portraits for girls he's dating. Seems like a good way to save money on gifts :p
Yeah, it's never about the cost though, and always about the thought... that's hard for me, even after 10 years together....women have a life-long maintenance schedule (romantic and respectful gestures).
For you young guys dating: "great Apache warrior always mysterious and never talks about his many ponies". That means don't try to buy a good woman (or brag); they're not for sale. You want to be with someone who's just happy to be with you, even if it's for a free jazz concert. "Is she part of the crew, or part of the cargo?"
I could go on, and on, and on... it's all from "The System" in case you were wondering. There are good women out there, so good luck to all of us finding (and keeping) them.
function drawHeart(ctx, x, y) {
x += 100;
y += 100;
ctx.beginPath();
ctx.moveTo(x, y);
ctx.quadraticCurveTo(x + 30, y + 60, x + 80, y + 100);
ctx.quadraticCurveTo(x + 130, y + 60, x + 160, y);
ctx.bezierCurveTo (x + 200, y - 75, x + 100, y - 90, x + 80, y - 20);
ctx.bezierCurveTo (x + 60, y - 90, x - 40, y - 75, x, y);
ctx.fill();
ctx.closePath();
}
Good job by the way!So, I made my wife an app this year. I thought it'd be something other people might appreciate, so I polished it into a product and am selling it:
Sorry for the inconvenience. I'll look into this. Can you shoot me an email with your site's name? lauri@brace.io
Thanks!
Definitely not intended :) The modal should disappear once you make your first change to the files in Dropbox. If this doesn't work, please shoot me an email lauri@brace.io.
Sorry for the confusion.
I think the difference between them and brace.io is that they have a CMS that allows people to edit text visually as opposed in code.
