More Updates..

There have been two more updates:

  1. Go edit your profile and put in your rookie year. It will show next to your posts, by the 'Join Date' in the upper right area of each post.
  2. Spell check, spell check, spell check. There is a spell check button anywhere you post stuff. New threads, replies, editing, quick reply, and PM's. PM me (or Amanda Morrison, English major extraordinaire) if you need a word added to the dictionary.

OK:
1) DONE!!
2) WOW!! Great thanks a whole bunch! Yeah I noticed that you couldn't add words to the dictionary by yourself so I had to end up clicking the 'ignore' button all the time. But no worries I don't mind!!

Anyway, thanks for both things! Keep up the awesome work!!

Very, very peachy!

Brandon, you seem to be getting a bit touchy about all this stuff. It's summer and you don't have anything to do so we thought you would enjoy the challenges. You are AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks

The word wasn't in the dictionary, so it wouldn't have helped me anyway.

It is now. See? Learning experience for us all. Ha.


Amanda, I hate you.

Since today is National System Administrator Appreciation Day (http://www.sysadminday.com/), I'd like to thank Brandon for all these magical updates.

At sysadminday.com, there is a list of gift ideas...
