Some new news

Just a round-up on a few things I’ve been working on the past couple weeks:

- I think avatars are fixed. I tried another one yesterday, had issues with it, and when it got fixed, decided I didn’t like it as much. So we’re back to the old one, and I *think* I found a fix for it. I am almost at the point where I feel like coding the stuff myself. Anyway, try uploading an avatar. If you can’t upload and replace an old one, let me know and I can delete the old.

- Still mysteriously busted: the previous/next links in some themes (the code is there, it just doesn’t show) and spellcheck. Upgrading my browser to Firefox 2 helped that, though. ;)

- There’s a new plugin in town, one that adds a little box to the end of every post, so your visitors can add it to any social bookmarking site out there. It’s called Gregarious, and to use it just go to Plugins, find it on the list and click “activate”. You can even add places like unbridledlearning.com. ;) I also whipped up a BoardGameGeek widget. It needs work, because you have to paste part of the javascript they give you into the widget. Not all, just part. (I can help with that.) Then you too can list your board games on your sidebar.

- I added a custom header option to a few more themes. KA Spooky Blue, Daisy Rae Gemini and Dark Maple all now have the ability to change headers. I’ve changed the theme descriptions to reflect this. More (much more) coming soon-ish.

- there’s a small redesign to the main page, mostly reshuffling. The member list on the side was getting pretty long, so it has its own page. There’s also a line of stats AND (this is really exciting) a list of the last 5 comments site-wide so you can see what people are talking about and join in.

- And speaking of our community: go say ยกHola! to esined and brush up on your Spanish while you read their adventures. (Thank you, google translator…) Meanwhile, our son went and got married. Congratulations to the adorable couple!

If I’ve forgotten anything else lately, that’s my excuse why. :)

  1. If you’re talking about the avatar in our profile, I’m still getting this msg:

  3. Thank you for your welcome. I’ll try to make an English entry every now and then, so you all can join our situations and experiencies. “Saludos” from Puerto Rico!
