Don't Mind If I Don't: Painting

6/14/2024

By Some Gold Pun LLC

Aaron Gold Christine Stoddard Don't Mind If I Don't Painting

Artist Statement:
The worst part of starting out a new talent or skill is being bad at it. No one likes an “I suck” period, as crucial as they are to getting decent at anything. It’s embarrassing, sitting alone in a room with your new guitar, desperately trying to churn out some semblance of "Hey There, Delilah." There’s nothing to feel good about in the prerequisite most amateur of amateur hours other than “Well, I haven’t quit yet.” That’s one of the lucky boons Don’t Mind If I Don’t grants me. Because even when I’m struggling at something, if I complain about it loudly and incessantly enough, it will be entertaining. God bless you, television.

How to Setup Solar

Step 1. Create a Homepage

Even if you already have a home page, you'll need to create a new one since Solar needs a blank page to automatically pull and display your blog posts in the magazine layout. You can create a new homepage by going to "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Standard" page.

Step 2. Apply "solar" Page Layout

Once you create a new homepage, apply the "solar" page layout to the new homepage. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, select the homepage on the left, and under "HEADER TYPE", select "solar".

Step 3. Create A Blog

If your site doesn't have a Weebly "Blog" page, then create a new "Blog" page. You can do this by clicking on "Pages" at the top, click on the "+" icon and select "Blog Page".

Step 4. Setup Blog Automation

Come back to this screen and fill in the input boxes with the URL of your "Blog" page and 3 category URLs from that blog.
