Changes to the site

You’ll notice some changes to the layout and other things on Music Nerds lately. You’ll probably also notice some things that don’t work or are missing. We know about (most of!) them and they are on the list, as we’re still working away trying to get everything settled.

One of the most important things we are working on is the page where you submit reviews. The old one was ugly and the new one looks better, and has a preview feature. The feature is JavaScript based, and currently does not work in Internet Explorer, though it does work fine in Safari and Google Chrome (we haven’t tested it yet in other browsers like Opera and Firefox). A key new feature of the editing/submitting page is formatting buttons — select some text, click a button and you can automatically make it bold, underlines, etc. These buttons for the time being also don’t work in IE. If you see the people who create IE please punch them in the stomach good and hard.

Hopefully in a couple days these things will be fixed for all browsers. In the meantime, claiming albums and submitting reviews still works in all browsers. We’ll post more info about specifics in the coming week.

Thanks to all who are making this site possible and fun! Hope you have found something new to listen to.
