Yup, I was just coming in here to say that the notification finally showed up, about 7 hours after it was sent.

Yeah, mine's there now, too.

Yesterday's Gmail outage delayed millions of messages by over two hours.

GO TEAM NOT US THIS TIME.

(Please ignore last night's outage, but I am not happy with DH's level of support. I have never had a ticket responded to during the outage--the penultimate outage was us using too much PHP memory--it's not their job to tell me why, but we didn't change anything, including load, so why would our PHP.INI suddenly need fixing? But that took IM to get addressed, and I waited 20 minutes before someone got to me--20 minutes of staring at the window seeing if they'd picked up yet. The other outages just "resolved" and I got a response saying "I have tested your sites and they seem to be up now, BTW you can restart your virtual server at this link:")

What do you want to do now? I love choosing Tumblr themes.

Score!

I think the best thing for b.info would be for it to look as much like default b.org skin as possible. I know you can do all the HTML, etc, but unless someone is willing to code that, I'm not up for more than maybe changing fonts and colours.

Something simple, streamlined, columns, few graphics would be good. As far as basic Tumblr good behaving, it's not like I'm expecting you to pick something that plays the Buffy theme at max volume, but clear page navigation is too often ignored--a template that shows tags and post times is also important.

I'd like to be able to clearly display the B logo, at least, and other Buffy pictures on future consideration, maybe.

Key thing is, though--I want it in the end to be clearly of a family with our design or Buffy-related at least, so flexibility to achieve that, or starting from a good place, as well as simple navigation, clear separation of posts so that readers can see the most recent what and the when right away, and then navigate backwards for history and context.

eta: I'm enjoying posting the pictures, but the text is obviously more important, so if a theme emphasises text strongly in picture posts, that's great.

I have no intention to link back here, though.

Um. I'll get started looking!

I'm a pretend usability expert, so you were || close to getting a requirements summary with use cases. Close shave!

I'm just having trouble finding a free one I like that will let us add the logo. And by us, I mean you.

Are paid ones a one time charge? I guess if they're cheap I could float it, just pay to reduce irritation.
