More Changes at the Little Read Book
As you may see, there have been some more changes on the site today. This is in addition to the upgrade to MT 3.11 earlier this week and then the updated look that essentially looked like the old site.
I struggled to get the comments working and MT Blacklist working. After pestering Corie and Greg Greenehouse about Blacklist, I finally figured it out. It wasn't misconfigured, it was just that I had my old version of it running. All because I wanted to make sure the new version worked. I'm still toying with the idea of requiring comment registration for the site and approval to non registered comments. So, if you want, go ahead and register with Typekey (it's free!) and you can comment at will on the site. If I'm making the changes, then unregistered people will have to wait for approval. Of course, this is only if I make that change.
Anyway, back to the changes in appearances on this site. The site is a little sleeker and a has a few more images, and a lot less white space. The biggest thanks go to Shannan, who basically redesigned my whole site. If anyone needs a newly minted expert in MT 3.11's stylesheets, let me know and I can put you in touch.

Hey Tien... I am a frequent visitor and I remember you trying to become a better cook. In my blog I posted some of my favorite recipes (and they're really easy) if you would like to try them. I'm still working on the bugs but select 'new window' and they will all show up fine. If you try any, let me know!

Site looks awesome, Tien and Shannan! I'm actually not all that embarrassed to read your site, now! ;)
Speaking of spelling, I finally saw Spellbound the other night. If no, then must.

You should give me Shannan's contact info. I have my site look down, I think, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with my tags. UGH. These new MT3.11 changes are very subtle but throw everything off.

Looking good. I could use some help upgrading my own bad self, particularly since I liberally borrowed from your last incarnation...

Yeah, I know the move from Blogger.com to my own domain(tortillasandwich.com - yay!)should be fun, but I'm not skeerd.
