Well, I Think I Have It Sorted.
I've just spent most of the evening touching up ye newe site a bit. I've added in monthly archive listings on the major pages and spruced up the Category list (speaking of which, I pared the Descriptions for the Categories and the Site down to a single line, as more than one line always got displayed awfully). The biggest change has been the addition of the revised IMAGinES logo, re-colourised to fit with the Gettysburg scheme. Thanks go out to Peg for coming up with the original!
You know, I had all these grand plans on how the site was going to look and work, but with only a few compromises, I think I have something that looks very snazzy with half the effort.
Telstra still isn't letting me in, unfortunately. I put together a new front page with the URL for the new site, but once again, Telstra are preventing me from FTPing into my own bloody web space. I am very, very glad that Marcus offered us hosting on his system, I really am.
I think I've pretty much finished up the work on both our web sites. All of the remaining design work is on Vickie's site; a contact info section (probably just e-mail) and adding a Guestbook in. That'll take some time. In the meantime, there's still scads of old content to be transferred from my old website and Vickie's poetry folders.
Hoboy.
UPDATE: I just tried to browse to users.bigpond.net.au/imagines, and I'm getting "The page cannot be displayed". Very odd - I was able to view it this morning. Telstra's service status page for Broadband Cable has an outage notice for e-mail, but says that "Homepage" has "No known problems."
If I'm having the same problems tomorrow, I think I'll give them a call. I am paying for that 10 megabytes of personal web space after all; I should be able to get to it.
Only recently, I was saying Telstra's performance has firmed up. Well, although their connection has remained up lately, in the past couple of weeks I've had FTP connection issues and now I can't see the site at all.
Hmm.
