greendaytone Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Is it possible to put each of the stories in the opening page, a bit like the set list idea? I've only seen the LA one, and need to catch up with the others! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDM Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 Is it possible to put each of the stories in the opening page, a bit like the set list idea? I've only seen the LA one, and need to catch up with the others!Good idea. When we get the list together and find one link to each of the stories (if they are available and forever how long the links actually last), I'll get an admin to put them on the front page. I think I'm going to write something eventually for my blog, too. These aren't necessarily in order of popularity, we can do that later, methinks.1. Sunset Boulevard Fight.2.
