Another 'Gig Lovers' Project Update

Gig Website: I thought it would be ready by now, it isn't, but whatever happens it'll be up and running in some form this month.

I indicated in my last project update post that I wasn't happy with the name "mygighistory". The day after an email dropped in to my inbox notifying me of a few domain names I have expiring.

One of them was "giglovers.com", and after a few hours of trying to come up with something better I decided I actually like 'Gig Lovers' - so that's it.

The good news, even though the site is dragging on, is that my 'work lists' are getting a lot shorter and it's becoming more difficult to add jobs that need doing. Most of the things on the list are visual, for example, "Make 'post new topic' page look pretty" (etc)

I don't really have a logo so I knocked something up in Photoshop in about 2 minutes. Logos have never been my strong point and if the site takes off then I'll pay for someone to create one.

The next thing I'm to work on are the 'widgets'. Users will be able to show their upcoming gigs, or, say, the last 5 gigs they attended. I'll listen to requests for other widgets once the site is launched.
