Hola OlyBlog, I was wondering if you are ever gonna have a public workshop on "blogging" & how to use all the cool OlyBlog features?

Submitted by emmettoconnell on Tue, 02/12/2008 - 10:20am.That would be cool
Submitted by security_six on Tue, 02/12/2008 - 10:24am.But I probably won't be welcome, even concealing... :-(
OTOH, I have most of the features figured out, but really need to work on posting pics and doing mouseovers, especially now that I have a fast, powerful computer instead of a relic from the last Millenium.

Great Idea

Submitted by emmettoconnell on Tue, 02/12/2008 - 10:41am.Yeah, but....
Submitted by epersonae on Tue, 02/12/2008 - 2:13pm.Blog Skool seems to be about how to write & read responsibly, rather than the nuts & bolts of using the site. Given security_six's comment about mouseovers & images, I think the latter might be helpful to many.
Theoretically, I'm going to have a lot more expertise in Drupal at some point later this year, at which time I'd be happy to help.
I also happen to think that OlyBlog is massively more visually complicated/cluttered than it needs to be. (And that Drupal makes it easy to make a site overly cluttered.) But that's a topic for another day.

Submitted by security_six on Tue, 02/12/2008 - 2:21pm.I just need to sit down and go over the controls, something I haven't done yet... I can install and configure a Linux distro, how hard can a mouseover be? Besides if a tagger... errr... graffitti artist can do it, anyone can :-p Just funnin' ya enpen!
