Alrighty folks -- distant, early morning is now running on ExpressionEngine 1.6.
It is absolutely awesome. The new features available blew me away when I first saw the changelog. I got so excited that I begged and begged for Paul and Derek to let me run 1.6... ok. I didn't beg. I may have pestered a little bit. This is a really amazing update.
Beat it up, click links everywhere, submit comments. Let me know if you find anything strange, awry, unworking.
I accept compliments, too. And cookies, and chocolate. Books... whistles
Let the shenanigans begin!
Razzmatazz.
Son of a.............*sigh* Now I have no CHOICE but to purchase another year of downloads. Oh, that they would make it so that once you fork out that dough for the software, downloads would be for life. LOL. (Cause you know. I really mind. LOLOL)
Is it up for the public yet, or still in beta?
Okay, why must you make the world jealous with your spell-binding teasers concerning EE 1.6. WHY?!?! lol. Great site, not that fond of the design, but you’re a EE tech so I forgive you. lol.
It’s still in internal beta, Maevyn - so no rush. =)
Thanks Arik—I think?
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…
Something in between…
You know what - no. Arik, if you don’t have something nice to say, then you shouldn’t say it. “Not that fond of the design?” - too bad.
I like the design, I spent a lot of time working on it and I think it’s perfect for me. Either make your comments constructive or don’t share them. Thanks.
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…

Poor Lisa… seems you get the loser trolls over here, too…
Sadness whispers her condolences; for the greatest tragedy of all is love lost.
But the greatest virtue belongs to those who will give everything to love again…
It is a test.
I know, you’ve been here for how long, Crimson?
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…
Something in between…
Too long for my (and probably your) liking… but I wasn’t talking about me this time. :D
*whistles and looks 5 comments up*

Hey, wait. How did *I* get dragged into this? *gigglefit*
And thanks, Lisa. I was all excited. Even went over and renewed my downloads so I could make sure I wasn’t missing out. LMAO!
*grins at Maevyn* no no, not you!
And cool =) I can’t give an ETA unfortunately but I think it’s worth renewing for. =)
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…

Maevyn, I didn’t mean you at all… LoL
I still say 1.6 should have come out on my birthday, just because I’m special like that… or something.

LOL no, I know, Crimson. :) I was just being silly.
So Lisa...when can we expect this little gem? Any inside info?? LOL Damn it, the suspense is killing me. Hee!
(BTW, the image for the “Submit” button isn’t showing up; hasn’t been for my last few responses. I cleared cache but still don’t see it. Art thou working away? LOL)
Nope, I’m not working. There have been a few strange occurrence of images on the site not occurring. I’ve noticed a few periods where I can’t even get out of Comcast - or out of Boston or blah blah. If it’s still happening in a few days I’ll troubleshoot it more but it seems recent - was happening before I upgraded so I’m sure it’s not part of the 1.6 thing. =)
Nope, no ETAs, but the internal beta seems to be going fairly well from what I can tell, so hopefully not long. It’s killing me not being able to talk about the new features! =)
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…
Something in between…
Ah, ok. :) And voila, I show up, and there’s the kitty submit button! :) Hahahaha!
I know, it’s killing me to not HEAR about the new features, but I shall try to be patient. Hehehe! It better not take until Xmas, though! LOL
It isn’t gonna take until Christmas. I don’t think I can get in trouble saying that! =)
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…
Something in between…
Unless I rat you out, of course… :-P
Oh, Pauuuullll....

Whoa, take it easy guys! I didn’t mean to be snobbish about it. I was really just being coy. I didn’t think I’d tap a nerve.
Is sarcasm not accepted around here? Geesh, loosen up a little.
Arik, you’re an unknown on this site. You came here, made a comment, then bashed my site. Now you’re telling me to loosen up?
Believe me, this place is full of sarcasm - but until you’re known, you should be careful how your text is taken. Remember, it’s *just* text, no tonal inflection to hear the sarcasm.
I will not loosen up on my site. It does so happen to be my site, I can be as uptight about it as I want, and yes - I will defend it. Of course I will, I spend a ton of time working on this site.
You’re a guest here - kindly behave nicely or go bash someone else’s site.
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…
Something in between…
I’m not trying to tear ya down but apparently I’ve made you feel that way. So my apologies.
My comment was more or less about EE 1.6. The rest was just pointless banter. Little did I know such things would be the tipping point for you to act out of defense for your website. I wasn’t bashing, if I wanted to bash I could have run the gamut in pain-staking detail and at that point you would have deleted the comment anyway. So no, I wasn’t bashing. I made a loose criticism and that was my mistake. So I am sorry.
You’re still awesome in my book.
Loose criticism doesn’t help. Would you walk into a stranger’s house and say, “eew?”
I sure as hell wouldn’t, that’s downright rude.
All I ask for some manners. To you and anyone else visiting - get manners, or get out. I’m old fashioned, I believe in politeness in all things. That is one area that I will be a tyrant on - after all, this is my house - you’re welcome here as long as you can behave like a civilized human being.
But I’m sure there’s something in a shade of grey…
Something in between…
This is your *website* and I respect that. I have showed nothing but an open mind after that “rude” comment and it seems you’re still up in arms about it. Nottin on it I guess.
