WHEW. Blogspot put up the missing post that this rant is about, so that's back in place, but of course if you tried to comment it didn't stick. So if you had anything to say about any of the posts please let me know. As a result I've done a quick edit to this post. As always anything I can do for you, just ask -Trevor
Okay kids the moral of the story is apparently NEVER USE BLOGSPOT.
Naturally on the day the great folks at Comicrelated.com run a story on the blog, what does Blogspot do? they put the site down for maintenance, make it so nobody can post, or send messages, and to top it off, they delete everyone's last post. So my day 13 posting about budgeting, which I wrote at 12 at night, is now gone (If anyone for any reason saved a copy, please let me know. I usually save everything in a word file, but was exhausted after working over 12 hours at the day job, and forgot.) So I have no way of tracking anything that happened yesterday, anyone that tried to post or send me a message, I'm really sorry but I didn't get it. I'm trying to conact google the owners of Blogspot, so see if there's anyway to recover that post, comments, etc. but it seems improbable (we live in an infinite universe-nothings impossible). Had I gotten some kind of warning email, or, ANYTHING that showed an once of professionalism I wouldn't mind. As it stands I'm kinda ticked off right now.
Worst case, I'll retype the information I posted, I still have it all, I just don't want to possibly skip out on something I had mentioned before. .
On the plus side had to work really late yesterday, so I got a sketch or two done while I was waiting for downloads and burns to finish (the day/pay job is at a post production facility).

f I hadn't already done some marketing and made some contacts I'd jump ship to a different blog company. As it stands I'll work with Blogspot for now, but if something like this happens again, I'll have to seriously consider going to a different company.
-There should be more zino (zombie dino) goodness tonight,
and if I have a second or two I'll redo the post for day 13 budgeting.

ReplyDeleteThe missing post may come back. I'm more concered about any comments right now, as I try to use my readers feedback in the comments, so that you guys have actual input into the comic. If anyone posted anything conent specific, I'm really sorry but if you could post it again, I'll see what I can do.
