So, most women shop when they need a pick me up, me? I redesign something. Welcome to Sugarrae version 1.5, again done by the ever fabulous (and not cheap but very worth it) Reese. Some tidbits about 1.5…

1. Sugarrae is now on Wordpress. Expression Engine, you suck and I am so beyond glad to be rid of you. Thanks rmay for killing it for me.

2. Quick design change fact: I likely pushed Reese close to killing me several times, close to hitting me many times and close to firing me at least once. She is an angel to put up with me, because I am picky as hell about the way my blog looks. I look at it as an expression of “me”. So, if you know me, I’m sure you can imagine what I’ve put Reese though. She is really the best blog designer and I hope she puts up with me in six months when I change my mind again. ;-)

3. Those who saw the design in beta kept asking me “how do I caption the photo?”. After the fourth person asked me this, I realized maybe it would be a common issue. Big thanks to the dorritos bitch for helping me find a plugin that would allow me to link the pictures to their counterparts on Flickr. Now you *can* caption it, so shut up and leave me alone. ;-)

4. There are two more main sections to be added, but I couldn’t get them done in time to launch before I left, so stay tuned in about two weeks for additions.

5. There may be some quirks - if you notice any, please let me know.

6. Comments will need to be moderated the first time you leave them (and only the first time)… FYI. So, if you leave one and don’t see it, you will shortly.

Hope you guys like it… looking forward to opinions. I’m off for Vegas Pubcon now, so I’ll be on light posting for the week. Oh, and if you’re ever at a conference and tell the BOTW boys, “I like your swag so much, if you put my name on it, I’d probably speak in it” guess what will show up at your house? You guessed it. I’ll be speaking in the very first custom Best of the Web shirt ever made…



Yeah baby. I know graywolf the swag whore is drooling. ;-)

Know what you mean Rae - unfortunately some of my redesigns have been worse than any fashion blunder - at least you don’t get jumped on and knocked down in the street for a liltte faux pax fashion wise - well not usually!.

Just returned from sunny Florida - would have made our holiday a week later and on the other side and made my first Pubcon if I’d realised it
was on - don’t know how much fishing and surfing there is in Vegas though!!
