An evil little trick.

Thursday, October 30th, 2008
Yes, I said "evil". Because it is. I belong to a couple of awesome networking lists. On one of these lists, recently, someone was asking about a possible solution to what is truly a common problem for us designers/programmers who provide CMS solutions for our clients. The problem? Microsoft Word. All of you reading this...how many of you have create an awesome site design with pristine code and gorgeous formatting, and your client is all "hooray!"...and promptly starts writing their content up in Microsoft Word, and the C&P's the stuff into the CMS you've just made for them? (Come on, I know you're out there. Raise your hands.) I have two clients, currently that do this. No matter what plugins I've installed, and no matter how many different ways I instruct them on how to do it correctly (even with using their beloved Word!) they don't do it. They just keep C&P-ing from Word, and keep calling me when the site breaks because of it. Now, to why I am evil.

Howdy All…

NOTE: There's been a security vulnerability discovered in my forms. It has now been taken care of. If you've used my forms prior to September 20, 2007, then you *must* upgrade. Please read this post for directions on how to fix. Long time, no speak. Been working like a mad hatter (man, I must be working hard, because that adage makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.) I'm letting you know that between projects (which seriously - I'm squeezing!) I'm trying to get a new design for this site out. I've had a lot of complaints about this one. I'll still say I like the red, though...but I digress ;) There's other issues that truly are a pain in the butt, and although I knew about them before I put this one up, I didn't think they'd be that bad. Truly. Anyway, that aside, I have a new prezzie for you all. It's actually something I've had finished for quite some time now, but I've only allowed a certain group of people use it for the last few months. Mainly because I needed testers for it, but also because this group is kick-ass and has helped me majorly in almost everything I do. So I wanted to give them the goodies all to themselves for a while. But now, I figured it's time I let the rest of you in on it.
