PhotoAwesome.com Changes
This is just a quick note about some changes that will be occurring on the site. I’m in the process of converting the site from its current content management system (MovableType v. 2.661) to Wordpress 2.2. This has become necessary because of various backend problems that I won’t bore you with. However, I will tell you that posters should now have a little more control, AND it should be easier to make entries. That means posting links and photos and (hopefully) video should be much easier.
However, I’ve never used Wordpress before, so it’ll be a learning experience for all of us. I decided to change everything now because 1) I have the time, and 2) not many people seem to be updating/checking the site currently.
I generally get this kinda’ thing done in a day or so, so please bear with me and don’t post anything super urgent/important that can’t be lost in the move. If you have something that absolutely MUST be posted/commented on, e-mail me with it after you post it and I’ll try to make sure it makes the move.
