Pretty sure I figured it out. Sorry for the comment spam here Byrne. It does not like tall images. I was trying some desktop backgrounds I had saved on my hard drive, and other shots from a digital camera. It did not li...

I have had a whole lot of fun looking around your website seeing how you used the Universal Template Set.
One strange thing I noticed was how it handled a tag search: http://www.majordojo.com/cgi-bin/mt/mt-search.cgi?tag=2008%20presidential%20race&blog_id=3
Also, (unrelated to the UTS) I went to "sign in" to comment using my Vox account, but it would not show any fields when I selected vox.
I thought you'd be interested to know. Thanks.
Yeah - the tag search this is a bug that has been fixed with the template. It will get updated once MT4.1 is released.
Hi , I work with http://www.Grouptivity.com . I wanted to ask you a quick question. We'd like to get people that use MT to try the Grouptivity plug-in. Grouptivity is essentially for webmasters/web developers and we're getting a lot of positive response from MT users over the past several weeks.
I just wanted to ask you for some advice on how you think we could reach out to the community? I don't want to post in the MT forum because I don't want to come across as being a spammer. We simply want to ask members of the community to add the plug-in to their website instead of their 'email this' link. If they have a website with lots of traffic, we'd be glad to discuss a sponsorship deal. What do you think?
BTW the Grouptivity Plug in can be found on the moveable type plugin directory: http://plugins.movabletype.org/emailplus/
Thanks so much!

Hi Byrne. Didn't want to publish this on MT.org, but pls note that if a user was testing the beta and release candidate versions of 4.1, and then upgraded to the final release (personal version) rather than doing a fresh install, they retain the Professional Pack features of customfields and universal template set without having to pay for it. It sucks to see dishonesty pays, but I have not succumbed to that temptation. Probably jack shit you can do about it though.
I run the Blogs at Penn State project and we've been using MT for it. We recently upgraded to MT4 as well. I was wondering if you would be willing to share this style. It is very nice!

Hi everybody,
Today, I tried to access the TESTITOOL demo site at the following address ("http://majordojo.com/testitool/demo/"), and I ran to an errorpage. The same problem has occurred two weeks away.
Would be better if this demo site was available...
Regards,
Testitool is no longer actively maintained as such. Enough interest was shown in the tool that I turned it into a commercial enterprise called Test Run. If you like the simplicity of Testitool, then you will love Test Run. They are based upon the same principles and code base.
if you are professional you shouldn't express your political preferences on the pro site [blog] 29 - OBAMA So you've don it and I can NOT trust you as a professional. Have nice day.
IT should be free of political issues Vote for ever you want to and have nice day. Lisc
Where do I get the plugin for the "reading and watching" module on your pages??
I am using my Media Manager plugin and the Gallery widget that comes standard with the Mid-Century Template Set.
I just installed fresh the new version of your PhotoGallery program and the photos are not showing up as thumbnails or large photos. I checked your Troubleshooting section and it said the likelihood is that you do not have PerlMagick on your server... So I checked with my service provider and they wrote back:
The server has ImageMagick 6.2.5 installed by default , but there is no PerMagick. I checked the PerlMagick site but could find PerlMagick 6.2.5, so I removed default ImageMagick and manually compiled and installed ImaeMagick 6.4.5 (it has PerlMagic).
But I still can't see any photos in your site. Can you check your application, see if they have a testing page to verify the environment?
I am using it at http://www.trystmag.com/gallery (warning the main site contains Adult content).
Any help would be appreciated, I am hoping to have this online tomorrow.... Sandi
