I need a someone or couple estrip savy veteran peeps who want to be official greeters/helpers. It's not very demanding. You would ber interacting with people about question on how to use the site and possibly answering some emails. When you are online it will show some sort of status symbol like "official helper" so that people can ask you for help.

new icon maybe?


Typical interaction: People sign up but have trouble confirming their email. You would have a control panel to manually confirm them. They aren't sure how to add a picture to their journal or listen to sound, etc. A lot of times the questions are even simpler than that, such as, "What is estrip about?", "Does it cost anything?", etc

While the help files would be the most obvious place to get the answers, some people just like a little coaching. So help might have a link to helper peeps online if they still have a question about something and that helper would be you.

I added chat to the wap site for (e:lilho). I will allow people to post to the chat after i go get a guiness at the pink. In the mean time read the chat at elmwoodstrip.org/wap on your wap compatible cell phone.

1. Does anyone want to be a sports writer? You don't have to already be a member of the site but I would like someone to cover local sports and sport issues.

2. When I get some time, I am going to totally redo the calendar interface as it apparently is not very useful. More work for (e:uncutsaniflush).

I am thinking about moving the calendar right off the page and making a calendar utility that other people can post to without even having a journal entry to associate with it. You will still be able to associate a journal entry with an entry on the calendar. I am also thinking about making calendar comments. After 2 years it has seen very little use other than upon its release. Does anyone have suggestion? Just leave them as comments.

I have updated the latest entries box to display the number of media (images, sound, video) included with each entry. If you roll over the mini icons, it will tell you how many of that type of media are included in the entry. Unfortunately, some people with big names like (e:southernyankee), haha, make the icons pop over the edge if they add multiple media formats to one entry!! I might redesign a little bit but I am really busy with my day job work right now.
