20.04.08 status report - How the months slip by.. I had hoped to have the new site up and running a few months ago, but that would have required a herculean 24/7 effort over several months and I am no Hercules. And work (meaning day job) just gets busier and busier. People have been asking me if I've thrown in the towel after 8 years of slog. NO! I have decided to open the new site in an incomplete sort of way soon, leaving the old site where people can still get to it to see the full link listings. I can't wait, as it is very odd posting news on the new site and being the only person able to read it..

Anyone familiar with content management systems (ideally php/textpattern gurus), is welcome to lend a hand to speed it all up a bit.

19.03.08 Forum sign in. - The new forum occasionally suffers from a problem that causing logging in to fail. The web hosts are looking at it so hope to have it fixed soon. Those who have ticked "remember me" when logging in probably will not strike this issue.

The problem is also causing error messages to display - please don't be alarmed..

28.02.08 Forum - Please excuse the error showing on the left, trying to get it fixed. New site is almost ready to turn on but I wouldn't dare name a date..

UPDATE. How odd, after puzzling over it for a while it fixed itself.

18.01.08 Not quite - As I am being kidnapped and removed from contact with my known world (ie no internet or mobile) I have found another excuse to delay the launch of the not-quite-finished new Butterpaper. So let's just say February..

08.01.08 progress... - Sorry about the lack of action round here. The new site is tantalisingly close to being ready, but there are still too many dodgy internal links for me to make it public. Next week!

05.01.08 Return of the forum - A new forum has been installed, mainly in an effort to reduce the 50 or so spam registrations every day. All usernames and pass words should still work. New features will gradually be turned on to allow image uploads and all kinds of fun.

The rest of the site is in the process of being rebuilt, and it is a slow process moving the content across. It will probably be switched on page by page as I work through 8 years worth of links doing a spring clean.

30.12.07 FORUM - The butterpaper forum is closed for posting for a few days while some major work goes on in the background. This is also why this blog has stalled for a while. Thanks for your patience, and happy new year to all.

13.12.07 Unbuilt - The winners of the Architecture Australia Unbuilt Prize for 2007 can now be viewed online. The overall winner was A Clinic for the Exhausted, by RMIT student Michael Spooner. I don't understand it, but as an exercise in drawing it is fairly mind-boggling.
