Show me some skin.

The message board has a new skin. If you go there you might get a bit confused about where you are. Just thought I’d warn you. If you get lost, you can always choose the default skin in the dropdown box on the bottom right. (Only shows up if you’re logged in.)

Also I’m upgrading my WordPress to the latest stable release 1.5. All-new and supposedly much improved. (Not sure how they can do that since WP is the bomb as is. :grin: ) So if you come by and the blog looks funky, that’s why. Bear with me. I hope I don’t mess anything up. :???:

*****UPDATE*****

Mess things up?? Oh my gosh, my blog database totally exploded and crashed my blog. I had a freakin’ heartattack. Thank the Lord I made a copy of my database directly before the upgrade or I would have lost a ton of stuff. So, all you WP users out there, DON’T UPGRADE!!! And if you do, backup your entire database first. Jees, my heart is still racing. I have this plug-in One Click Backup and it saved my blog. If you haven’t installed this plugin yet, you should.

Well, I just discovered how important my blog is to me. When I thought I’d lost it I was thinking, “How will I talk with my friends? What will happen to the hundred+ people who surf through here each day?” I was prepared to switch servers just to get my database back. So, just so you guys know, you’re valuable to me. :grin: I’d go to great lengths to keep you in my life.

    I upgraded mine just fine (and yes I backed up first) :wink:

    I panic everytime I do anything with my blog:shock: But I can’t wait to switch to word press, if only for the fact that you can save drafts and time stamp an entry to appear whenever you want.

    I’m glad yours made it through safe and sound! And thanks for worrying about us – (I do get nervous when I can’t one of my blog buddy’s blogs to load):smile:

  3. Your blog still looks beautiful to me, so you must have done a great job of fixing it! I’m just with Bravenet, and I let my webmistress do all the updating, so I hope I’m safe. Who knows for sure!:?::?:

    :sad: okay, now you’re scaring me. I want to upgrade my WordPress. Did you follow the instructions here:
    http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/upgrade/upgrade_en.html (hope that link works), disable your plugins, and run the update.php after you upgraded?

    Think I’ll browse around and see what other trouble people are having. Bummer. And I’ll be SURE to backup my database before the upgrade. I’ve been meaning to install that backup plugin anyway.

    Oh my! I was pondering upgrading. I seem fine with 1.2, but if they made a 1.5 it must be better, right?

    Now I’m REALLY fine with 1.2. :smile: Off to check out that plugin today, though.

    I’m glad you made it back!
