I just noticed the quick correct button was broken so I fixed it. It is the one that looks like a chidlrens block under above the publish button. It quickly corrects common typos such as "the", "something" etc.
Try typing "the" in one of you journals and then click it.

Gather- peep online file sharingCategory: web
Welcome to Gather 
- An (e:strip) file sharing utility to help peeps share files with each other on and off their journals. After uploading a file, you will be given a url that you can use on your journal or to give to another peep so that they can pick up the file.
You can log in with your regular estrip username and password. Other peeps will need to log in with their username and password in order to pick up the files.
I hope you like the cute little graphics. They are minimal and I got the perspective off a bit, but I like the look they ended up with.
I also upgraded the chat. Right now there are no sounds but it should be really fast now.

Best of ArtvoiceCategory: artvoice
Well, it's been another year since we didn't win the Artvoice Best of 2005 contest. I hope maybe this year we will have a better chance. I think last year a lot of people voted online and then it seems like those votes went away at some point. Maybe someone else knows more details about how that worked.
Another problem is that a lot of you voted for best blog but we aren't really a blog, we are a blogging/community website, and they do have a best website award so it would be best to vote for that. If you want to vote for someone's individual blog that would seem more appropriate for the best blog contest.
Anyhow, I guess we should try again although the motivation of getting ntoiced so that we can get a new server has been resolved since Artvoice is hosting us as a result of meeting Jamie at the event last year.
The best way is probably to vote by filliing out a ballot in artvoice but you can also click on the image above to vote online

Userpic Maker Update and Best Of BuffaloCategory: estrip
I fixed the userpic maker so that you once again can cut userpics out of web based images without having to use photoshop. You can even use it to cut userpics out of images on your journal. Basically, just like it says enter the URL of the image from the net (try searching for some on google images), then when the pic loads, drag the box where you want to crop and click just outside the upper left hand corner.
On another note there is a Best of Buffalo Contest sponsored by Spree. There is a category for Best Blog and Best Buffalo Website. It is in the 200s. Yes there are that many questions but you do not need to answet them all but you can win a prize. The survey is here

I voted for elmwoodstrip.org on both catogories. Supposedly if you vote online there is a way to go back and change votes or add votes to catogories you didn't fill in, as long as it is done before the dating deadline.
Thanks (e:Zobar), for the info. Last year, i voted but i was too new to Buffalo to vote on much other than (e:strip). This year, at least 31 categories for me! :)
Last year the balloting was outsourced to some weird Portugese guy before I started working there. This is not to say that the Portugese are opposed to democracy, but we did notice some irregularities in the numbers that came back. By this time, we had no choice but to run with them.
This year, I am personally handling the polling, and I can assure you that the only way your vote will not be counted is if you do not vote in at least thirty categories. [Partially because we want your opinion on everything Buffalo has to offer; partially because this makes stuffing the ballot box more difficult.]
Since this is a reader's choice poll, it makes less of a difference as to whether you or I know the difference between a blog and a blogging/community website than as to whether your average Buffalonian can tell the difference. Since (e:strip) placed in the Best Local Blog category last year, I think it's safe to say that you're eligible for that category, at least, whether you want to be there or not. (-:
