Stuff is posted here as well as Twitter, so things tweeted on twitter most of the time isn’t posted on this blog. I find it easier just to login to twitter and tweet away. Although, you will see the Twitter box on the right hand side of the blog.

I’ve added AddThis javascript to QB next to the QDigg links (QShare). It’s modified so you can click on it and submit the quote to any networking/bookmark site on the AddThis list.
The footer doesn’t overlap the left and right sides of the page text anymore when the browser window is resized, instead it can be resized as with the main page columns. still to fix: navigation bar, If the browser window is resized to something stupidly small, the navigation menu goes all over. Either I fix it or I tell users to use common sense and resize it a bit bigger.
I decided to change the blog.quotebucket.org theme, and created some fancy header images with a few quotes that display randomly (obviously, I’ll be adding more). I also signed up for a Twitter account (http://twitter.com/quotebucket) follow us!
I fixed some stuff on quotebucket, not much has changed. just the following:
A better search page
header searchbar fixed
and others.. just look around and you’ll see.
The stripper has been updated again, now it removes colour codes aswell as bold chars etc.
In total it removes the following:
Timestamps (common, nonamescript, escript; etc)
The ASCII character 1 (^A)
Replaces « and » with < >
Removes colour code characters (^C)
Removes ^O
and, removes bold characters (^B)
Anymore? simply email webmaster@quotebucket.org to get them added.
I’ve been noticing people adding quotes with the ascii 1 char, which obviously makes stuff invalid. To help fix this I have updated the stripper to remove that char too; (If they’re found). The new stripper is available at http://quotebucket.org/static/stripper.js
You will now see a “QDig” link on each quote next to the rate function, this allows you to digg that quote. Hopefully this will build up Quotebucket.org, although we will have to see if it works or not. It works, obviously; but will it get us traffic? That will be for you to decide!
I’ve now added the RSS feed to http://quotebucket.org, (You’ll see the RSS icon in your browser, next to the favourites icon) of coarse, this is just a simple <link rel=”…” />
The text area on the add page has been made wider, this is due to larger quotes being added. although it’ll still keep its fluid width.
