Calling All Astrology Bloggers: Update On The New Astro News

July 31st, 2008 @ 10:43 am by Elsa

Outtakes and various other sundries

Woke up this morning to find the new Astro News in disarray but HQ and his brother have defeated most the problems – Check it out!

There is also a tab on top this blog now, as well as the widget in the right margin. Please help yourself to one of those if you would like to support the new site. Text links would also be greatly appreciate.

Also note the Astro News is still in progress. Things like the comments to this blog won’t be visible on the final product and there is one major problem not yet solved – None of the feeds from blogspot blogs are showing up.

Now we will solve this eventually (and hopefully quickly) but if you are an astrology blogger using blogspot and have an alternative rss feed, please email it to me and I will change you out.

Outside of that there are some design changes planned so please keep an eye on our progress and feel free to offer any ideas or suggestions. I have to brag again (in 9th house Mars Mercury style) about the speed of this thing. Updates are fast and furious, you’ll love it Thanks everyone!!!

Oh Elsa, I tried to put this on my blog but the widget is too wide for my side bar and it ends up going over my posts
Don’t know what to do.

Bummer! Well a text link is something and I will mention this to HQ…

joana, if you click on “customize widget” when you get to the springwidgets website, you can change the width of the widget.

Ah thanks Jeffrey! I will do that and try not to make it look weird. I think it will be fine.

I used to think of myself as industrious, prolific, and driven to bring about tangible outcomes of projects, but Elsa, I must say, you leave me in the dust. Like I said, seems like you have been shot from a cannon of late.

I’ll just have to stick to my gigantically complex super long term (years) type of projects that only someone like Sun/Merc Taurus 2nd opposite Saturn in Scorpio in 8 can endure. I guess I am “doomed” to spend my life working on some kind of dissertation or another.

Elsa, that link is really cool. I will figure it out. The blog talk is a bit over my head, but I just haven’t bothered to learn it yet and that is why I have not been able to link you … I don’t have a blog. If and when…well, then you are first on the link list!

Thanks for all you do.

Thanks for creating a new and better version of Top Ten, Elsa. I like the new widget much better than the old one.

BTW, I was able to customize the width to make it fit in my Blogger sidebar . . . just went through and found all the places it said “width” and changed it from 300px to 218px. Learned a lot about working with code developing our new website.
