About the page.... There's all sorts of stuff that still needs to be done; as you noticed, the righthand links don't work and the logo isn't linked, etc., plus other little "beauty items" that need to be taken care of. Lot o' stuff; but I couldn't get into the site this morning when I had time to do some of that, and then I've been out all day, but I plan to take care of most of these items tomorrow morning (for you 'muricans, that would be late tonight). In the meantime, somebody give me a beer!

I'm not complaining! Just mentioning some things. Sometimes it is hard to test every last detail before going live. Place looks great!

Ah, no, sweetie! I didn't think you were complaining!

*hands taz a beer*

it's beautiful taz and dodgygeezer...

posted by Schyler523 19 May | 12:53

All I have is this one PBR.

Just...just the one. Once it's gone, no more beer. And...and there's only...one beer left...

Nevermind. I, uh...I never had any beer.

I forget, are you a stout-girl taz?

Genau!

i've brought a six pack of crap beer leftover from a party last month. i think it might be corona, but i haven't looked into the bag out of fear for what might be lurking in there. but it's been in the fridge, no worries.

cheers!

Wow - to throw this together so quickly! you all are amazing! Is the correspondence between the logo and the bunny ears on purpose?

posted by Jasper 19 May | 13:41

Well, it is now!

posted by taz 19 May | 13:45

It's gorgeous, well done, love the bunny. I have Rolling Rock & PBR in my fridge, help yourself! Sorry I drank all the good stuff last night - ;-)

make the bunny STOP STARING AT ME

posted by quonsar 19 May | 14:17

The bunny knows what you did, and where you did it, q.

posted by taz 19 May | 14:36

OK, I fixed the links on the right hand side.

posted by dodgygeezer 19 May | 14:47

taz and dodgygeezer - I thank you. Now I will no excuse for working during the day!

posted by redfisch 19 May | 15:06

and I've made the logo a link to the homepage too

*smooches dodgygeezer*

Ah, sorry.. *wipes beer-foam off dodgygeezers head*

*hugs taz*

*hugs taz* *nods appreciatively at dodgygeezer*

But when you're fixing this and that, it would be nice if I could select text on the page to do a proper quote. (It selects weird, at least in IE.)

posted by Doohickie 19 May | 23:47

That's odd. There's nothing in the css that should be causing that... I think. Another one for dodgy to wrangle with!

posted by taz 20 May | 00:35

Do you see what I mean, or does it not happen to you?

posted by Doohickie 20 May | 09:08

oops! I forgot to update here. Yes, I also saw it when using IE. Dodgy says he's having all sorts of IE-misery, and I know what he means, 'cause I went through the same thing with the CSS. He's going to try to work it out over the weekend.

Taz, on the metachat home page under the some helpful links heading you ought to include a link to another nifty mefi-related site that some user, I can't remember who, came up with: metaiku. :)

Better yet, might be to use a feed from metaiku to run the newly posted haiku's in the right-hand column below the nifty links here. Toasted you and dodgygeezer with guinness last night!

posted by safetyfork 20 May | 11:02

*kiss*

Actually, I thought of that, but I didn't want to be accused of nepotism!

Yes, I'll add it - and I'll ask dodgy about the feed.

posted by taz 20 May | 11:13

Double sweet to the both of you!

posted by safetyfork 20 May | 14:15

The select thingy works okay now. Thanks.

I love you! By-bye!
