So that’s it. I give up. After an uneven (but obviously still gallant) attempt at designing my own website, I’m giving up on DIY in favor of DIR (doing it right).
WordPress, as far as I can tell, is just another slutty girl with issues. It seemed so hot and easy from far away, and at first it was. But then I realized I was trapped by the same drama I’d hoped to avoid all along.
And with that, I’m bringing in professional help. Most of the details are ironed out, and the new site will be up by early fall. In the mean time, we’re still working on content for the launch and for the first of many digital broadsheet/mini-issues to come out in PDF form as well.
There will, of course be updates coming shortly. Once we have a set date for the launch, I’ll be shouting that as loudly as a magazine that hasn’t really existed for two years can. Seriously, though. 2010 is MY year. 2010/2011 will be The New Scheme’s year, once we shake off the warts we got from this skank and get back in the game.
