Polyvinyl Crush

Nope, no review today. Between closing out a number of things from my old job and getting ready for school (which starts in less than a week) I couldn’t find the time to get a review together. It’s a shame too because I had a great one planned for today. Oh, and it’s probably best not to expect a review for next Monday either. I’ll be moving into the dorms next weekend so that’s going to eat up most of my time.

The good news is that this weekend wasn’t completely lost as I was able to hammer out no less than six photo shoots. The significance of that? With those six shoots I completed the last of the figure shoots I needed to be able to continue doing reviews during my first semester. Since I’m not taking my collection with me I needed to build up a reserve and that’s all done now. So for better or worse I’ll still be around and sharing my nonsensical ramblings and figure reviews with you even while I’m at school. Just give me the next two weeks so I can get situated to the new environment.

stay tuned,

It was another one of those do-nothing weekends; the type where you just feel like dorking all around the place without accomplishing much.  Except this time I really didn’t accomplish much.  I manged to get a couple of photo shoots done to add to my college queue but I didn’t get any review ready.  Sorry.

I know.  I’ll do better next time.  If you want PVC goodness check out some of my friends in the Blogroll – I’m sure they’ll be able to fill your fix.

We had an inspection over the weekend which required me to take down my light tent so I didn’t have time to get a figure shoot done, hence no review today.  The real kicker is the inspection ended up being delayed (surprise, surprise) and I might have been able to get one done had they let me know about it, oh, say anytime not after they were supposed to be here.  I’m not bitter about it though.  But, in reality, I was planning on upgrading the tent eventually so I should just consider this the official start of that project.

In figure related news head over to Neko Magic and check out the magazine scans of Alter’s Tsumugi and Max Factory’s Xecty.  :3

Just got back from Otakon. More pics and thoughts to come later! Just wanted to pop in and say HI!

p.s. good to be back(on the site, being back from Otakon is not so good.  I want to go back already.)

So I was lying when I said you wouldn’t notice a difference after we did the upgrade.  I should have read the the upgrade instructions better because apparently some themes are incompatible with WordPress 2.7 and it just so happens that the one we were using was one of them.   So I picked a new theme one the quick (the default theme was making me sick).  Think of it as temporary while we continue working out the kinks.

We also “lost” our old tags.  I put “lost” quotes becase we had been using a plug-in to do tags and WordPress 2.7 has that functionality built in.  I’m hoping there is a way to translate.

Love the new interface though,

Wanted to let you all know that we are going to upgrade our WordPress software tomorrow.  If all goes according to plan, Polyvinyl Crush will be down for a couple hours while we do the upgrade, but when we return we’ll have shed ourselves of the old and busted WordPress v2.2 and we’ll be back with the new and shinny WordPress v2.7!  You’ll probably notice zero difference on your end, but for us it’s the first step in a much needed site redesign.

Stay tuned,
Rico-sama
