Workspaces are always interesting, and I’d like to give all of you a chance to share with us! You’ll find a few photos of my workspace below, but I’d like to see yours. I’ve started a BittBox User Workspaces group at Flickr where you can add your images. You can also email photos to me at contact(at)bittbox.com if you like. Once we have enough to look at I’ll make a special post. You can include your name and what you do with the photos if you wish. (makes it a little more interesting)
Remember, to add a photo to a group on flickr, first upload your image, join the group, then go to your image page and (right above your photo) click “send to group” and choose BittBox User Workspaces from the list.
Its been 1 year to the day since BittBox began, and what a year it’s been. In celebration of the Box’s first birthday, I ‘m giving away. . . you guessed it, an iPhone. The kind ladies and gentlemen over at GoMedia have signed on with me to give away a free vector pack of choice to another lucky reader. All you have to do is leave a comment on this post. Comments will be open for one week, and the winners will be chosen randomly. Only comment once, and you must fill out an email address in order to win. Good luck everyone, and thanks to each and every one of you for your support! Here’s to an even better year to come!

Sorry for the slow week everyone. Oklahoma City (my home) got hit with a wicked ice storm and I haven’t had power for more than 5 days. And I’m told it could take up to 2 weeks to get the internet back up for everyone in the city. Hopefully I’ll be back up and running full-speed soon : (
Adobe has released a Flash Player 9 update that is now supporting HD quality web video and audio playback! Download it Here. Official Press release Here.
For any of you not aware of this contest, Crestock.com (Stock Photos) is holding a Photoshop contest and the deadline for the last round is next Tuesday, December 11th. The prize? A Mac Pro with dual(2) 30″ Cinema displays. Can you afford not to enter? I know I am, but the competition will likely be intense, so better get started early. Contest Details Here
I just wanted everyone to know I’m going to off-the-grid for a few days while I move. See you next week! :)
In case you have noticed anything wierd around the box lately, it appears my site has been compromised, so tonight I will be wiping my server and starting from scratch. If anyone has any security tips for wordpress and how to help prevent a future attack, I’m all ears. The only clue I have is that one user saw a white screen with the phrase “Already Hacked by Magic SEO Toolz.” There have also been spammy links inserted in my RSS. Sorry for the inconvenience, and I’ll have everything back to normal as soon as I can. This couldn’t have happened on a worse week. (The week I have to pack all my shit and move to another state).
If anyone has any info or would like to help (I’m not a WordPress Guru) you can email me at contact(at)bittbox.com.
