So…talking to Lora Innes about the possibility of a Dreamer/The Dreamland Chronicles crossover…she totally “One Upped” me by sending me THIS piece of art.

You are SO mean Lora!!!
I laughed so hard I….well…I laughed really hard…OK?
For more of the Dreamer…head to the comic and read this wonderful tale.

This isn’t over. I don’t know how…but I’ll find a way to make this crossover happen.
Also…if any of you web people are still interested in helping out…please see this post regarding my hacked Blue Dream Studios site.

I’m still open to suggestions and help.
Thanks and have a wonderful day.

First off…
THANK YOU to all of you who’ve been helping me fix my hacked company site.
You guys are incredible.
Unfortunately I’m getting html and other files from so many people…I’m having a hard time compiling it all.
I thought I’d post my notes so I don’t have to email everyone…hope that’s OK.
What we have right now is the old Animation and publishing site. I need to change it.
Some of these notes have already been implemented. But still having trouble with the rest….

WHen you click on BOOKS…you should go to another page that has all of the upcoming and current books.
See the post below to see the books.
I need to simply set them all up so they go to their individual pages.

Then each page should look like this.
It should be using the Lightbox plugin (already installed) so people can click on images to see them bigger.
Once I have one of each page…I can copy them and make all of the pages myself.
It’s just getting all the code right. I’m HORRIBLE at this.

Again…thank you all for your help.
I just need a bit more hands on help and I’ll be able to take it from there.

I want to again thank you all for offering to help me fix my hacked company site.
I really am…WOW….thanks.
I took your advice and grabbed the index.htm file from a cached google page and tweaked it to get the main page back up.
http://www.bluedreamstudios.com/
Here’s what I need to do next.
1) The top banner is supposed to be random. There’s a javascript but I don’t know if it’s working.
2) The news…I’d like to get rid of it. Simply put some images of the books up. Or maybe just a single NEWS ITEM or something HOT to add there.
3) I will be taking off Animation and Toys. I guess I should change Publishing to Books…or Properties?
4) I need to add several pages. But want to use this SAME template. Just swap out there welcome part and news and throw in an image and text. there should be a page for each of these items…


So that’s like 15 pages or so.
5) I want to make sure there’s no more ways for people to hack in. Like last time. If anyone has experience with that to check the code…I’d appreciate that.
6) I’ll work on getting the About Us and Store links working again.
7) I really like the javascript that allows you to click on the image and it expands (Like in my store) so i want to use that throughout.
Any other advice would be great.
That’s it. I thought maybe posting it here would help and I’ll try to do all of this on my own…with your advice.
I don’t want to take up too much of your time. But I appreciate anything you can do.
Thanks again
Scott

Hi all…
I’ve put up a HUGE SALE on the store! HUGE.
REALLY BIG!
Here’s the deal…
We are now with IDW as our publisher. This means ALL of my inventory is going away.
I’ll have some for conventions…but my store is going away.
So…for the next month and a half…I have one last chance to BLOW OUT everything to you.
I’m almost giving this stuff away. Please go check it out.
As always…I will sign and do sketches in the books.
The Paddington Plushes…we have.

Felicity and Alexander are on their way here.


So if you order something with them in it…there WILL be a delay.
We’re hopeful we can get all shipments with Felicity and/or Alexander to everyone by Christmas. But please keep that in mind when ordering. And always feel free to email me questions.
Anyways. Please PLEASE check out the store.
http://www.bluedreamstudios.com/store.html
Make sure you check out the savings. It’s a lot.
I want you all to have these before they all go to the distributor.
NOTE: Donna is looking into CHEAPER International shipping. We should know by mid-day if we can get it any cheaper. Thank you ALL!
PS.
Don’t forget to tell me who you want sketched in your books! There’s an option during checkout. Also…who you want the book signed to (if you do). Real important.

It’s in Philadelphia…so if you’re in the area…please do come on by! It’s my last convention of the year!
I hope to see you there and please tell anyone who’s into sci fi, fantasy, and the like to come on by too.
See you soon.
