We've upgraded from drupal 6 to 7. It wasn't 100% clear, but wasn't hard to get fixed up. We've also added Facebook, Google+, and LinkedIn buttons to most content on the site. Not that there is anything worth sharing...

We've been using PHP-Nuke for a long, long time. For years I've been meaning to move away from it due to countless security issues, poor code, and slow development of it. It's been a decent ride, though. I've easily created several modules and blocks, but as time has gone on, the obviousness of needing to change to something else has become increasingly apparent.

Do you like candy? Do you like bacon? Do you think bacon is meat candy? We here at pigfucker.net certainly do. And that's why we created the "bacon is meat candy" black t-shirt on Cafepress and just now added more (non-black) clotheing choices to the first pigfucker.net Cafepress shop. And we've created a new shirt and shop for the "got bacon?" merch.

We now have a cafepress shop featuring a black shirt! The black "bacon is meat candy" t-shirt is the first of many items to come! Update 12/15/2005 @ 7:00AM PST : Please hold off buying this shirt from Cafepress! I received mine just yesterday and the white lettering seems to have been applied too thinly making it grey instead of white. I have an inquery with Cafepress on this to make sure this was an error on my shirt and not the way all of them turn out. I will keep you all updated on this.

Well, we seem to have endured yet another upgrade. Here's to PHP-Nuke 6.5. Yee-haw! Additionally, we've created a new cheasy logo for the site. It's a PNG type of file with an alpha layer, if anyone is wondering. Sadly, it turned out that IE6 had a problem with the original PNG image so we had to switch to this less cool looking version. Damn Microsoft. Renders just fine with Mozilla, though!

Remember that contest we announced a month and a half ago? The one where we'd send the lucky winner a genuine first-run pigfucker.net t-shirt for submitting the best story or article? Well, June is over and we don't have a winner.

I've decided to run a little contest: Basicly I want you, the registered users, to submit articles. Which ever one I deem "the best" will get their choice of an XL or XXL sized pigfucker.net t-shirt mailed to you (if you are outside of the USA I'll need you to help pay for the shipping, though).

A few people have asked for it, some even demanded it, but would you pay for it? I'm not kidding.

Finally upgraded to the newest version of PHP-Nuke. We now have a guestbook that fits the site, and a nice gallery to add images to. Whee! Of course, it still looks like shit. But who cares?

So I've got a new idea going for the pigfucker.net t-shirts... See, I've got about 15 of the XL and about 20 of the XXL ones left, and that's just money sitting there, right? So it'd be nice to move these things and spread the gospel of pigfucker.net at the same time...
