Diminisher of Peace
Wordpress
I've been goofing with Wordpress on the Lykeion Books site, testing it out for use as a product (book) page, playing with the zillions of themes available, modifying them, digging into PHP a little. Fun stuff.
I haven't settled on anything yet, but take a look at what I've put together so far, just by working some graphics, css and bits of the page layouts.

Wordpress, it's free, it's powerful, used everywhere, well supported, easy to install, easy to modify, active community designs and development, etc. It's practically self-aware. Hold on while I try to rearrange the letters to spell Skynet. Nope. Doesn't work. Whew! I really didn't want to have to decide between bland web designs and a semantic personal publishing platform that would lead to machine domination/total annihilation of all higher primates.

That looks pretty! It reminds me of the "Greenery" theme. I love WordPress, but you know, nothing is perfect and WordPress is no exception here. :) It sometimes drives me nuts. Anyway, I'm glad you've joined us. Good luck experimenting.

All programming is perfect--and Worpress is no exception. It's a deterministic system. There are no bugs, everything must function as coded. How can it be otherwise? ;)
I think I took someone's adaptation of the Greenery theme, changed colors, images and tinkered with a few other things. I'm not sure I'll go with this one, but it has been fun so far.

Well, I'll admit to it, you got a point there.
Just a suggestion, now that you're still looking, have a look at Scott's themes at http://www.plaintxt.org/ I like the way he codes.

I've tried to get away with the deterministic system thing with QA and project managers and it never seems to fly.
Thanks! I'll check out plaintxt.org

Hi there,
Yeah, I'm sending the same email to some 20 other podcasters. So how's that for being honest?
Anyhow, I just set up a podcast alley vote-links page at http://www.firstchoicewriting.com/horrorpodcasts.html . It features a link to your podcast and a direct link to submit a vote for it on podcast alley.
Right now, there are some 20 horror fiction podcasts listed on it, and the idea is for visitors to vote for all of the listed shows. No obligations, no strings attached. Just doing my part to further the cause.
Keep up the awesome work.
