**BLOG TERROR ALERT LEVEL: VERY RED ELEVATED**
This blog will be subject to being upgraded to b2evolution 1.8beta “Summer Beta” within the next 24 hours. The upgrade is complete. Now I just need to finish up some little stuff. At least the skin is ported over–THAT was a pain. All Readers should continue to be vigilant, take notice of their surroundings, and report suspicious blog activity to /dev/null.

Checklist for myself (skip for sanity’s sake or read for enjoyment)
* Backup original database
* Backup skins
* Upgrade/Install new engine (blah blah)
* Reinstall linkthumb
* Port/convert blueC (now blueJeans) and amy_skin to new 1.8beta skin format (***tedious work alert..blog terror alert level elevated to “reddest red you’ve ever seen in your life”***)
* Reinstall captcha Please note that I understand the captcha letters are a little hard to read. I’ll be selecting better fonts over the next few days. Until then, you can press the little refresh button next to the image to generate a hopefully-clearer/easier to read image.
* Create new supporting files for blueJeans and delete old unnecessary files

Tape up your windows! Keep bottled water in the basement! Things are gonna get interesting (just a heads up!)
