Good news~
Dec. 12th, 2008 04:11 pmI've hit some kind of wacky Great Conjunction between my exercise program and illness-related weight loss. As of last month, I needed a belt to hold my pants to a respectable, non-urban street youth height. This month, I've needed above referenced belt to keep pants above my ankles. This morning while dressing I had to tighten my belt another notch.
Distance between Ye Olde Notch and the New & Improved Notch? 2 inches!
And when I say 2 inches I'm referencing women's inches (aka standard inches) not a guy's 2 inches (which roughly translates as 7 inches standard). Though in hindsight, guy inches would be much more impressive.
*happy dance*

Product Review: Amaya
Dec. 12th, 2008 09:47 pmNot that too many folks on here are likely to be put in the position to use this, but here goes anyway.
If someone tells you there's this great shareware called Amaya and they will give it to you to use, slap them across the face and jump up and down on them until someone calls the authorities. No, really. This is the sort of software your enemy should be using to plot your demise, thus ensuring your continued survival. Possibly even your immortality.
How does it suxxors?
It crashes constantly. It creates new and interesting places to save files where you will never, ever find them. We have more hope that someone will find Madonna's virginity than a file saved by Amaya. But no worries, because once you've found your file in that extra special place it created just for that file, it will crash. You will be zooming along lulled into the idea that this is a great shareware product, that perhaps you will recommend it to friends. Then it will crash. At least FrontPage, for all it's evil, didn't crash like this. My grandmother crashed her station wagon less requently than this monstrosity. I've been on it for three hours now and it has managed to crash more times than I can count. There are dents in the walls of my office and the pets are afraid. The local Air Station has mobilized their bomber jets because of the air raid klaxon coming out of my mouth on a regular basis now that I have Amaya.
Did I mention it crashes? Well, yes, now that you mention it.

Finally, but then . . .

What's going right:
All email accounts are functional.
The website has been updated with new pages (see Updates below)
What's going wrong:
The shopping cart/store is fairly screwed up, the categories do not work however all products are available via New Products. This we are working on post haste!
Updates:
How To's - Book Recommendations (a'la Amazon), Getting Started, Making Incense Cones, Safety and Tools & Equipment.
Grimoires - We now have an Herbal available, there is a strange coding error on the Herbs M page (most of the descriptions are entirely in bold). We are working on this, slowly.
What's coming up later this month -
Hopefully a fixed shopping cart/store.
Bulk herbs.
More Grimoire and How To's.
Photographs! Tell your friends!
Via our Associate Program: censers, mortars & pestles and the like.
So here's your talk back section - what content would you like to see on the website? More How To's? An Archangel Grimoire? More herbal information? More magical essays, articles, etc.?
I mean it, people, don't make me upload a midi on there!
