Ok it's on its way.. bear with me for the next hour or so..

Right, all done ..I think. I like this layout a whole lot better than what was up for the last few days. I'm really tired, so have a sift around the site and please let me know if you find any broken links or pages that just don't look right or pages that are not what you expected etc.. just note them on the comments for this entry. Also tell me what you think of this layout! Go on, do it!

The guestbook has not been updated yet, I'll fix that later. you should still be able to use it in the meantime though ..it'll just look a bit spaz. Oh, it was my birthday last Thursday btw :p

It looks quite nice. There's just one thing...

There is a horizontal scrollbar at 800x600 resolution. *fakes an epileptic siezure*

Hey Nereus,
did you take down the form to fillout for the MT blacklist thing? I sent you an email of the IP address to add, but was just wonderin' if you decided to stop doing that.

Ok site fixed up now for that extra few pixels so 800x600 should be sweet now.

Erin, yup I have removed the form although the page is still there.

Posting and collecting them myself and then updating from the master list was just doubling up the work for myself - kinda pointless really :/

Whenever you get spam, submit it at http://www.jayallen.org/comment_spam/submit and then I'll end up getting it via Jay's masterlist, and so will thousands of other bloggers *evil grin* ..just submit a cut&paste of the email you get that tells you whenever you receive a new comment :) (I'm pretty sure I set your site up to do that).

Although I'm still blocking IP's, it's nowhere near as effective as the blacklist URL stuff, and also IP's change unless the spammer has a static IP (and no spammer in their right mind would have a static IP).

Cheers tho, but yeah, submit them through the clearinghouse, that way everyone will get them blocked - far more annoying to the spammer :)

Yay. The scrollbar is gone. Now your site is indeed sleek.

I do have one suggestion. It's not a top level priority like the scrollbar thing, but it's something that I typically think is a good idea. Maybe include some javascript to preload the images for your mouseovers.

LOL at the spammer who just spent an hour posting 127 comments here as a text flood. Guess what? It took me about 15 seconds to delete them. How do ya feel now? BWAHAHAHA!

yeah you're a real winner, I can tell.

I emailed you right away when I saw it... glad you caught it... :)

I put my website address in to link to my name and it is showing the anonymous link instead... why?

Erin

Um, *cough* nevermind.
