Website Makeover and Updates

    Hello friends! We’re currently in the process of doing a major overhaul of and Elsewhere, which should make it easier to find articles, and improve your experience of being on the website. While this is a much needed update, we currently have a few hiccups on our current content.

    For one, the images from previous articles that were imported from our previous blogging tool have automatically scaled down in quality. While we are trying to manually update every single photo to a higher quality, we don’t have the time to do this process quickly. However, all any new articles we publish post February 1st should deliver the highest quality photos for you all to enjoy.

    Second, my current project is to work on the top menu to improve organization, and make it easier to find articles to your interest. Right now, if you click on the pages, save for Contact, you will end up on an empty page. It’s a painstaking process, and requires me to manually go through every existing article to tag and categorize every single one. This is my current priority, and should be sorted in the next week.

    We know there hasn’t been any new content lately, and we’re planning to have weekly updates from both Leia and myself starting next week!

    Thanks for your patience!

    I love the new format and think that it’s a 1000% improvement over what you had previously. Keep up the excellent work and I’m looking forward to new content and videos!
