December 2008 Entries

Having been to Pamporovo twice now and making the decision of never going back we've decided to give Borovets a try.  When initially at the travel agents we priced up a couple of resorts in France and Italy but being so soon and with Christmas coming up we opted for Borovets. After adding on the price of lift passes, board carriage etc it turned out to be a right bargain.  Most of the other holidays cost more without the lift pass at self catering so was a very easy decision.

Not long now before Santa is visiting all of the people that have been good this year ;)  This year has been a difficult year, full of ups and downs.  I hope that you all have a safe and fantastic Christmas.

subtext logoSubtext 2.1 was officially released about 10 days ago. At the beginning of the week I tried to upgrade from 1.9.5 to 2.1 and I ran into a series of problems so reverted back. Tomorrow I am going to update my site to the latest version so I can use all the new features. Links regarding the release:

Also the Illacrimo skin I was working on is now finished on Andy's site.  He's constantly playing around with it but I will be putting it all together and uploading it to subtextskins.com. While creating the skin I came across more limitations of subtext which I will be outlining to the dev list. This will hopefully make it possible to create more complex skins should future versions fix these issues.
