Dyke March Takes Elmwood by Storm

The Dyke March was a huge success. It ended in a party down at Bidwell park with music and a beer tent.

Here is the first video on elmwoodstrip.com

. We do not have any streaming video server so I had to link it to my UB space. The video is MP4 using the quicktime plugin. Tell me if there is any problem.

This is the first puppet I have seen in a Buffalo Parade, it gives you the feeling of a big city protest or a Holiday in mexico.

There were really a lot of people in this one.

Here are the Nickel City Resistin' Radicatz.

If any of you have pictures that you want to include, please feeel free to upload them here onto this journal.

New Spell Check Feature

I have added some spell check functions, which will check your journal entry for spelling errors.

You can use the spell checking functions on the site, pre and post journal publication. In order to use the spell check function on an unpublished journal, click on the spell check button in your journal entry box. This will bring what you have typed, up to that point, into a pop-up window for spelling correction.

The other way is to spell check a journal entry after it has been posted. In order to do this, click on the pen icon at the bottom of any of your journals. This will bring you to an updated update screen. It is updated to display your journal entry with media and links at the bottom, so you can see what it looks like while editing, without having to switch screen back to your journal! From here, simply click on the spell check button to spell check that journal entry.

Once you click on the spell check button using either method, a window will pop up with a spell checked version of your journal sans media and links. If you click on the yellow highlighted errors, it will pop up a window which first looks up the misspelled word on google. If no suggestion is found on google, the system searches locally for a similar word in the local dictionary.

You also have the option of adding your word to the custom dictionary. Please only add words that you feel really need to be in the dictionary, as they will show up in the dictionary for everyone else.

You can also access the spell checking functions of the site by clicking on the new spell check link on your control panel.

The Site Will Be Down Tonight for 1 hour

The site will be down tonight from 10-11PM EST. The ISP is doing some firewall upgrades. Sorry about the inconvenience. They really suck, there are is starting to be so much downtime, and they give me very little notice. Someday when, we have some sort of income source for the site, we can get a new server or move the supercomp to somewhere with a faster connection.

The News is for Everyone

Now anyone logged into the site can post to the news journal. Previously, only certain users had access to this journal. As requested by Rachel, I have moved the news journal (the former elmwood journal) to a more prominent location. This allow people to easily check out what is going on by clicking on the news link at the top.

It will also alert people to check for upcommming events or important site information when they see the news jorunal in the top ten list.

I would like to ask that the users please keep postings on this journal releveant to current events or site information. I will continue to use this journal to post information about updates to the site. For all other types of postings, please you your own journal.
