Pushed Back

I’ve been sick the past few days, so I’ve spent the minimum amount of time on the computer. This has pushed back the launch of the new version just a few days, but it should be able to go live this week. Just thought I’d give everyone a quick update. Enjoy the rest of the [...]

Snuck out the back

Another teaser for you has escaped from the Devlounge design laboratory. We’re getting closer and closer. In the meantime, I’m also preparing articles (yes, they are already written in Word) for the launch. Good, good stuff.

Restoration

We just had our WordPress database from yesterday (roughly 24 hours ago) restored, so if you commented in the last day, chances are we lost it, so, unfortunately you’ll have to do it again. The good news is everything seems to be loading smoothly again, so keeping our fingers crossed, the load time issue is [...]

Trouble – Shoot!

While work continues on the new design, I am working with our host to root out the incredible slowness that has taken over Devlounge of late. It seems since our upgrade to WordPress 2.2, the site has been taking ages to load. We hope to have this all figured out by this weekend. We appreciate [...]

Think Nothing’s Going On?

If you wander around Astereo, you may happen to find to preview the currently in progress Devlounge design. Just thought I’d let you know, you know, if you’re bored or something. Keep checking back for more updates. For now, that’s all from the redesign HQ.

New Homepage Tomorrow

Not that homepage. With the main focus for the next few weeks going to be on completing and coding the next Devlounge design, as well as testing out new parts and features (along with juggling finals), the content department around here will essentially turn off, with the exception of new Friday Focuses. To prevent the [...]

Two Hundred Thousand

Earlier today we successfully passed the 200,000 unique visitor mark. Just a quick thank you to all our readers and contributors for helping make this possible. In other news, progress is quickly being made on the next Devlounge. I’m about 80% done with the new homepage, and once the homepage is completed, other pages should [...]

Updates from HQ

After a pretty long absence, I’m back and ready to go with putting together the next edition of Devlounge. I listened to all the positive and negative feedback about this design, previous ones, and what was going to be the next design. I’m taking everyones ideas and suggestions and mixing them all together to restore [...]

Slow Month

What a slow month it has been. Coming into April, I promised an output of articles like a heart rate, and instead, we flat lined. New content was very limited over the past month, and it has been reflected in our visitors, as for the first time in 4 months, our unique visitors will not [...]

Final Reminder: Contest Closing

Just a final reminder that today is the last day of the Refresh contest, and there is just a few more hours for you to get your submissions in! Please send them in as soon as possible if you haven’t yet, so we can begin the judging process quickly. If you are close but may [...]

Reader Appreciation

Yes, Reader Appreciation Week officially kicked off yesterday. While I was thinking about what I could do to honor all of you, I finally had an idea late last night. Since this is a web design and development resource, I decided throughout the rest of the week (and Saturday, since I missed a day yesterday), [...]

Odd Feed Problems

We’re experiencing some weird feed problems at the moment, where the feed isn’t showing images and isn’t putting anything into paragraph’s either. This makes for an ugly looking feed, and makes it very hard to read. I’m in the process of trying to figure out what’s going on, so please bear with us. Ronald just [...]
