Welcome to AustinPri.me! http://blog.austinpri.me/873 http://blog.austinpri.me/873#comments Mon, 12 Oct 2009 16:59:30 +0000 Austin Prime http://austinpri.me/?p=873 AustinPrimeOnline.com is NO MORE! You can still go to AustinPrimeOnline.com, however AustinPri.me is my new brand.

With a new domain name, there must be a new logo. The old Austin Prime Online text at the top of the site was getting old and bland. It was two lines, so I changed it to Austin Prime to make it only one line. Well, now with the new brand name I designed a very simple logo to do away with the text header. (Tweaks may be made to the logo over the next few days.)



Changes you may/may not notice; I did away with the bottom bar on the site and added a Follow me button on the right of the site. I also added a social media network sharing bar at the bottom of each blog post. (You should use it!) The forum also has been removed. I realize that this is the second time I’ve tried to get a forum running and it was a fail again.

Why did I change the name? Well because AustinPrimeOnline.com was a super long domain name and I was noticing many disadvantages on Twitter. Not only that but Austin Prime Online just sounds lame. Don’t you agree that AustinPri.me is a lot more clean?

Anyway this is probably one of my most poorly written blog posts. :) Just wanted to keep all my readers up to date! Thanks for the continued support!

Post your comments on what you think of the new changes. If you have any suggestions please post them in the comments!

If it reminds you of FaceBook, well good, that’s what it’s supposed to do! It has come to my attention that APO was difficult for some people to understand, so I decided Facebook seems to be super popular and everyone understands it, so why not use it as my site’s theme?!

With the new features I have temporarily removed all google ads because I was noticing some glitches that I needed to fix, so enjoy the ad free site for now! With the glitches, if you are subscribed to my RSS feed and have noticed any problems with this update, please let me know as soon as you can.

One of the new features I have released is a feature that I had on the old AustinPrimeOnline.com from about 6 months ago. This feature is the feature that allows you to leave video and or audio comments! Why post boring text comments when you can use your webcam or computer microphone to leave a comment? Way cool! You guys should test it out on this post!

I have also updated the Gravatar settings. So now when you post comments, an image is automatically generated by ‘wavatar.’ If you don’t like your image, you can change it by going to Gravatar.com and signing up with the email address you used here. This will make it easier to make conversation in the comments. Matching images makes things easier to follow.

I think that is it for now! If you have any further suggestions or notice anything wrong let me know in the contact form in the menu!
