cool nice one mike . can i change the photo to the present logo ? currently am working on a sticky with all the logos on it for people to use and get ,

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Sun Mar 30, 2008 3:11 pm

so is that current exhibition post a blog post ?

No, that's using what's called the 'box', which allows you to add text and images reasonably simply.

One thing to watch out for when adding images to 'the box' is to set the width to 440 pixels in 'options' and tick the 'create thumbnail' box. it just seems to work better that way.

Sorry for using the old logo - thought there might be a new one, but thought that would do to get the ball rolling - If you're going to upload the new logo then 300 x 300 pixels is optimum...

cool ,

michaelbowdidge · **Posted:** Sun Mar 30, 2008 3:30 pm

That looks much better now... good work!

i really dont understand this thing . we have a few friends all ready , who are they! .

anyway i guess we have to discuss how we are going to use it , i can see us being overwhelmed by comments . As i can see proposals becoming like spam.

can we disable comments ? as far as i can tell this is still in beta , so its still to be tweaked . its seems like we cant create events on it and invite people . this would be cool . a bit like facebook. it has a blog section , but i have no idea how it works .

thanks mike for doing this. let make it fun !

on a positive note you do see work from outside Edinburgh , which is quite refreshing . i can see some strange shows coming out of it .

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Sun Mar 30, 2008 6:03 pm

also do we want notification every time something happens to the site eg friend, comments ect . it will spam the email box. i can switch this off

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Sun Mar 30, 2008 6:24 pm

Just to let you all know that the TK page is all up to date again on art review - apologies for backsliding on that one a bit - will try to keep on top of it from now on...

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Mon May 19, 2008 9:16 pm

nice one

martinmckenna · **Posted:** Thu Jun 05, 2008 4:24 pm

so i reckon the art review web site is based on this software

http://www.ning.com/

as is the goldfactory

http://goldfactory.ning.com/

create your own social network . its pretty cool .i wish it was free software .

I thought the most basic level of Ning was free - you get stuck with ads though i think...
