We were wondering why nobody was commenting on anything on here so far, and had assumed that we were just uninteresting. Apparently, some readers let us know that the verification screen (where you type the strange letter combinations) had nowhere to type. That would definitely cause some problems. Anyways, comment away — we've removed any sort of internal verification, so I'll approve comments as I get them.
Also, I posted the PDF of the front page on my way out the door last night. This morning, I realized it was posted to a defunct folder on our FTP site as opposed to the active one; let's call that problem number one.
Problem number two: I got a call from the South Hill Enterprise (Va.), where we print our papers, about 1 1/2 hours after I had left, telling me that an ad page was "freaking out" going through their system. The night before, with the Northern Orange Xtra, we had the same problem, which was solved by saving the page as a separate file type and sending it back to them. This time, the new file type was causing the same problems, so I did all that I knew to do, which was update the same file type. And, presto! It worked. So, problem solved for this week.
Third, this will largely be unnoticeable, but it should be mentioned that I moved the banner and content down about 3/4 of an inch on the front to accommodate a "See our Design an Ad special section inside." However, as you'll notice, no text. So, let's try it here instead — check out the Design an Ad section — cute drawings by local kids about favorite local businesses.
Other than that, just a typical Tuesday. Here's hoping for a less complicated week this time around. We'll get to this week's stories this afternoon.
See what ended up on The News of Orange County's cutting room floor.
