This is a navel-gazing simple desultory philippic about adventures in
yak-shaving. It is dedicated [JTR](https://mastodon.technology/@jrss)'s [ox-hugo](https://ox-hugo.scripter.co/) theme [I've borrowed for the
second time](http://curious.galthub.com/blog/hugo-org-github/). Thanks!

he tells himself.

These are notes-to-self on converting my blog to using [JTR' new hugo template](https://gitlab.com/taonaw/taonaw).
These are mostly of interest to (my future) self and [JTR](https://mastodon.technology/@jrss).
This is round 2 of how I use ox-hugo to pubish my blog.
Round 1 is documented here [3/3]

George Jones :emacs: :orgmode: @eludom
@jrss Having trouble figuring out where to remove your custom graphic from the sidebar. Thought maybe favicon.png but I can't figure out where to remove it?
JTR :emacs:☕
@jrss@mastodon.technology
@eludom taonaw_logo.png and title-logo.png in static I believe.
George Jones :emacs: :orgmode: @eludom
@jrss OK. Killed it (comment) in .css. SOMEONE (browser, hugo server, ...) was caching the image and refused to let go even after I renamed the files.
```
- DONE add "thinker" at bottom of "about" in sidebar
