April Fools

[ellenmillion]

Everyone who logged into the back end of EMG yesterday - on the first day of open submissions! - got this message:



No one so much as squeaked! I'm crushed! I must have completely spoiled my trustworthy image with my prank two years ago: http://ellenmillion.livejournal.com/536581.html

Anywho... good mail days lately! I'm still waiting on a series of paintings I'm selling for someone that was supposed to arrive by courier yesterday, but I did get some fun makeup samples, tea samples for the forthcoming Red Wombat line, and color calibration software that I finally broke down and bought. And a lot of tax expense information that isn't as helpful as it should be. Gee, telling me I made $17312 in 'miscellaneous purchase' doesn't help me break things up for taxes. Morons. I'll probably be spending some quality time with my receipt pile this evening after work.

Back to printing! And other such things.

I logged in and didn't get that message! (I think!) Or was it Monday that I logged in? Crumb! I missed it.

I logged in there yesterday but didn't notice a message just like that BUT, I did get a shorther version of that as I logged in, against a white background and it was on for about 3 seconds so I barely had the time to read it. Then I got re-directed straight to the main page where I saw your message that it was just your little, mean prank ;) That was a good one though :P for that moment I was all WTF??

Well RATS. It wasn't supposed to do that - it was supposed to stay up until you clicked forward to read more info. I shot my evil plan in the foot with bad coding! (But it worked for me... I wonder why!)

Hehheh. That'll teach you ;) I bet if I would have told this to you yesterday, you wouldn't have believed me :P

I logged in a couple of times and never noticed the... notice thing. lol

It either didn't show up for me, or my brain blocked it out. XD
