Don't fuck with the people that maintain your sites...

Some emails back and forth with my ex-supervisor. She got bitchy and I accidentally... well, the whole site. Anyone hiring? :]

Tyler,

Yes and no.

I like Reggie’s video at the top.
But since we extended the deadline for the new contest to Friday,
I would rather have that next.
The plan is to announce the winners on the site on the first.
Then announce the new contest the following week.
Can you move the announcement message to second?

Mary

PS – other than that, great job. It really looks great.

So you want the contestants in separate posts?

No, one big long running one is fine.

That’s how Joe [last name] has his and this is what we’ve been modeling.

Really… so that’s what we’ve been modeling!? I could’ve sworn I built this whole contest system…

Should I separate Reggies post so it stay on top and put the new announcement under it and have the other winners of this months contest under it?

So, we want them separate but keep vid at the top? :) I think it looks better with the vid at the top… and it’s a short post so they won’t even need to scroll to see the next announcement.

Tyler,

No, I’d rather have them running.

I agree on the video.

So, like this:

Video
Announcement of new contest
Reggie’s entry (text)
2nd place
3rd place
Jennifer’s
Etc.
Make sense?

So basically, you want the site to be exactly like I said we should have it… Or am I confused?

Oh, I thought “separate” was on separate pages.

But I’m still right because I said so.

You know this isn’t just copy, paste, POOF, right? It took two hours to troubleshoot

The coding nonsense that came from taking the submissions from pdfs…
