…hopefully the last. For a while.

The messageboard being technically a separate site [if on the same server], using totally different coding than the mainsite here, it took us a few extra days to get it caught up to the new blogueware theme. But that’s done now. It even seems to work in every browser we’ve thrown at it. So that’s good news.

Apart from a couple bits of content to be updated on something like a routine basis, that should be about it for making large changes to DRH in general. So that’s good news: if you like the new layout, it’s here to stay for a while; if you liked the old layout…erm…get a website and we can work up a theme for you, I guess. Although, no: we’re not what you’d call cheap. Hang fondly on to your memories, maybe.

On the subject of the board, and since there’s a show coming up in a few days: go see the show; while you’re seeing the show, kick out a couple bucks for a throwbag; included in the throwbag are about seventeen cents worth of useless swag, and a barely legal lapdance designed to earn the other $1.83 and buy us all large boats; also included in the throwbag will be a spiffy, glossy, fullcolour card [incidentally actually costing seventeen cents to produce, at least until that chick working at Kinko's falls for one of us and gives it up for free...and also the card] which’ll remind you to come to the site and which’ll clue you in on the little code needed to register a forum account; punch in the code while registering your account; post messages to say Hi, or whatever; ???; Profit. Or something like that.

If you haven’t scrolled down too far, the address and starting time of the next show should [always] be up in the upper righthand corner, along with a map; if you have scrolled down, then scroll up, and down, and up, and down, and now cut it out before you get too excited. Okay, and now go back to bouncing; it’s fun to watch. Like, if we’ve coded the site to send us external access to your webcam. Which we probably haven’t done. Probably.

Okay: that’s it for the moment. Go see the show on Friday to negotiate our terms on whatever we probably didn’t get off your webcam….

DenverRockyHorror.com is essentially all updated now. That is: the functionality and layout is all in place, with room for a few additional modules as they become necessary. The content’s a bit lacking at the moment since A) the content was always kinda lacking, and B) to the extent that there was any content, it keeps getting deleted once it seems outdated.

The plan going forward is to stop deleting the older stuff. The modern idea with a website is to stock up on content, archiving the stuff no longer critically current; otherwise, the whole site could just be a jpeg with words in it.

About jpegs though: I’ve been looking through terabytes of forgotten stuff on my computer here, and finding shots from shows dating back—so far—to June 2006. I should have stuff older even than that, somewhere. But this is what I could find thus far is the curiously named E:/www folder; there’s some ewww stuff in there, like older versions of the site.

The images are categorised under Images, oddly enough; the alternative at the moment is News, which is where this is categorised. There might be other categories later, if and once there’s actually some content here. For now, though: feel free to poke around in the archived galleries; if you were at a show in the last three or four years, there’s a chance you’re in there somewhere.

The mainsite fundamentally done, in terms of coding, we’re moving on to recoding the messageboard. If that strikes fear, don’t worry about it: we’re just reworking the form and function; accounts and posts to date won’t be going anywhere; you won’t have to register yet the hell again…probably.
