Successes and Failures in "Edited to be Coded"s...Maybe Dieter Issue?
From the pile I grabbed, the bios went up OK.
bios
- Pearl Cleage is up (was up in some form)
- Pamela Mordecai is up (was up in some form)
- Azar Nafisi is up
- Kamala Markandaya is up
Then I had two for the "critique" area--one poetry review and one fiction review. They're coded and saved, and I tried to publish. But I keep getting a server error. I'd do a screenshot of the error for Dieter, but I'm not very Mac-savvy. Don't know how to do a screenshot. But if anyone goes into either of the two critiques below, and tries to "publish," they should get the same error. Or it should be magically solved, which would be good with me.
critique - poetry review
- "Coal to Diamonds..."
critique - book review
- Pearl Cleage's Deals with the Devil
As a side note, I don't have contributor notes for all the authors. I can try to look them up on OneStop and email 'em....

Was the error in Ecto or in Movable Type? Whatever the problem was, it seems to have resolved itself. When I went on the site last night I saw both pieces listed on the homepage under New Additions to VG.
I'll post later today about my convo with Dieter last night.

Screen shots for Mac:
Command (apple) + shift + 4
This will give you a drag n' crop cursor. Click, hold, and drag over what you want selected. When you let go of the click, it will put a .png of your screen shot to the desktop. If the volume is up, you'll hear a nifty camera sound when you do that.

Wacky. I got an error in ECTO, a system error every time I tried to publish. And they didn't show up in the hours I checked.
But good that they're up. Not multiple copies, I hope...
So I guess sometimes those error messages can be ignored?
Also need a little more Mac help. Can't come in today because my son has an ear infection (again), but maybe next week?

Yes on Mac help (if it's something I know how to do). I'm on campus everyday.
There were multiple copies of your adds. Dieter and I fixed the online appearance, but it's still a little messy in Ecto. I'd say not to worry about it for now.
Nice work on getting all these things added and updated! You're speedy with this stuff.
Brianna and I made some headway with the filing. The evil pile will be exorcised by next Friday.
