I really appreciate your help, Brandon. I’m eagerly awaiting an update.

Thanks!

The views of each item in the carousel were registered individually in the statistics before moving the site from WordPress.com to a hosted site. Can you explain why that would stop?

We would also like to get our stats migrated from indulgesound.wordpress.com to https://indulge-sound.com (which was recently moved to Host Gator).

I get the same error on line 35 as mentioned above, and there is no instruction in the readme as to where to edit to point to the images. Anyone figure it out?

I have a couple of peeves that I’d like to throw in:
– Pages that only truly work in one browser (the assumption that the whole world brouses with IE 6 for Windows is maddening),
– Pages that are too image intensive that aren’t art or photography sites,
– The use (abuse) of Serif fonts especially at small sizes,
– A list of links or blogroll that seemingly contains every site the author has ever been to,
– Too many entries on the index page,
– The abuse of webring linklets,
– Random sounds and background music (although I’m happy to see that this is dying out),
– The inability to control page width (left-to-right scrolling),
– Too much or too little whitespace (a matter of taste),
– The newest pic from your cameraphone,
– Flash as an integral part of the layout,
– Tagboards and graffiti walls, and
– Poor grammar and IM/chat shorthand.
These are all above and beyond basic usability issues. I shouldn’t have to resort to reading your blog through an RSS aggregator because I can’t stand your layout or your site is too difficult to read through the nightmarish colors and teesyweensy fonts. I have always felt that the layout should complement the content, not compete with it. Furthermore, I feel that authors don’t take into consideration other platforms and browsers. I don’t claim to have a wonderful blog but I like it and so do my three readers. ??

As far as Serif fonts go, Palatino rules. The use of Georgia seems pervasive in WordPress so I just replace it with Verdana in the stylesheet and I’m good to go. I also notice how much screen real estate Georgia wastes as compared to many other fonts (both serif and sans-serif). The forums would scroll a lot less and be easier to read in another font but the developers seem to like Georgia so that’s what we get.

I know it’s changeable, but I don’t think it should ship displaying serif fonts for accessibility reasons.

I have used a lot of bb systems and I have yet to find one that satisfies the geek in me. I like the simplicity and speed of minibb along with the syndication element. Does anyone know of a threaded bb that runs relatively quickly that also has some sort of syndication?

i was a 1and1 customer and i ended up dumping their services for poor performance. i would suggest finding a better host with better support.
