Minor point: The front page HTML header still says 'The Unofficial Pandora Weblog' despite the graphic header now saying 'Pandorapress community blog'.

Thanks for the tip.

Just a heads up for blog readers and authors. (By authors I guess I mean Tom, who hasn't totally disappeared, and BackAssward. Oh by the way, welcome to the newest member of the blog team, BackAssward. ^_^ )

I digress. I've had some family stuff come up, so I have to jet off and do some visiting from Thursday morning until the weekend. (Remember, my Thursday morning is probably your Wednesday night). Internet access for that period is a maybe, chances of me being able to post news are low. This totally sucks, because we're hoping for some exciting Pandora news over this exact period. :(

Thankfully BackAssward is in the wings and should have it covered. :)
 
You guy's should change the favicon. I guess its cause its on atomicthumbs hosting, I think, but it's doesn't really fit regardless and just makes me think of his avatar
 
MWeston gives an update on the cases:

http://www.gp32x.de..._1&#entry763883

After not completing the molds before the Chinese holiday, when they came back they gave me a 'worst case' completion date of Oct. 20th with the possibility to be done on the 15th if all went well. Then just the day before yesterday, they told Fatih they needed three extra days due to some last stage tweaks involving the smooth operation of tooling parts and ejection pieces so now that puts completion at around Oct. 23rd. With any luck, they will ship some case samples on Monday the 25th and I will get them mid to late that week. They are really dragging it out but let's just hope the delays are because they are trying to get the parts to look good and not have a bunch of terrible seams and warping. I won't complain one bit about the extra 23 day delay if the parts come out perfect. <fingers crossed>

I is back. Thanks for the tips and PMs, all. Hugs and kisses to Atomicthumbs and BackAssward for taking up the slack. (A permissions issue prevented BackAssward's news from being posted unfortunately, must fix that!)

You know, I might have been just confused. The status button only had draft and pending review, I thought it was there that you would set to published. Now that I look again, I see the glaringly big publish button below. Of course, I have nothing new to add, so I don't want to test this button at the moment.

Oh cool. ;D If you want to have a bash at it, you can click Edit next to "Publish immediately" and set it to publish privately. Then you'll see it on the blog, but other readers won't. Worst case, it won't be the end of the world if people see a test post for a minute.

Just noticed the favicon, cheers AT. And a contact link too. Luvly.

The more the merrier! First step is to sign up an account at http://wordpress.com/ (even though we don't post there any more - long story) then drop me a PM with the email address you used. :)

^ I ended up deciding not to post that. While I do have confidence in MW's confidence (in fact, he must be factoring in some extra time to be safe, meaning the cases are probably due tomorrow :ph34r: ) I don't want to risk another hyped deadline / missed deadline saga on the blog.

Also just noticed: MWeston's photobucket has hit its bandwidth limit. Bloggers: This is why we must host images on Wordpress. ;)

If you hotlink, you're supporting terrorism. Do you hate freedom?

If you need some Image hosting with no probs I can do it for you xD I have http://openpandora.info/hosting/ with unlimited brandwith and 200mbit speed (for Russia atleast) so use it if you want, I can also host files and Video too xD

But I almost everytime recompress them, since MW likes lossless stuff I guess xD
