many a movings going on
Jul 15th
Many apologies for no episode of Vertical Slice last week, this was due to my constantly being on a train to Sheffield and chasing round and meeting people in order to secure a new flat there.
That, and the “studio” (read: living room) also looks like this right now:
I do have a spotlight episode that I have been editing on and off as well as plans to record a quick episode outside, provided it stops bloody well raining long enough…. that, and if I can find somewhere that won’t have me drowned out by the traffic!
Date of moving into the new place is the 20th, which means I’m gonna be without the net for a week or so (will… not… cope!!!).
However, once I’m back up and running in the new place (which has better acoustics than my current locations, so it’ll mean better sound!) I should be getting right back to schedule once again.
There have, also, been a few developments behind the scene that I can’t talk about right now… but it will mean a boost to the show if I manage to pull it off.
And finally, I do have plans to move away from using tumblr as the grunt behind verticalslice.tv but development of the new site is very slow as there is only me pratting around with it right now and I have *no idea* what I’m doing in PHP!
If you want to see how things are shaping up just clicky clicky, if you feel that you can help just drop me an email and I’ll be more than happy to work with you. You’d also get a copy of the eventual template to use as you wish, as long as you’re not selling it to others.
new server, new backend

Well, I finally got up off my arse and got my dell sc440 up and running.
This also means that I have been in need of moving my website over to the new server too, but I haven’t ever been happy with phpnuke (too many things that just don’t work for no reason :S ).
Soooo, I have trawled the net for all sorts of different CMS offerings, messed about with settings to get them (semi) working, broken outlook web access – it now just displays folders instead of the asp!! no clue how I managed it – but now I think I might have found a very nice, lightweight replacement… phpfusion.
Seems to be very nice, most of the features actually appear to work – I don’t like how it seems to demand that I used only certain TLD’s in my emails, but that can be worked on
anyway, I’m gonna continue trying to migrate things across to this server and see what I can break next with this.
