I just installed eFiction for use on my Secret Garden fanfic site:
http://secretgardenfanfiction.com/efiction
I'm still working on designing the layout and I'm going to add a skin to the fiction area, but I'm so happy to have it working and I hope that anyone who likes The Secret Garden will visit and register:)
Thanks!
(P.S. Thanks for all of the help on this site as I encountered quite a few errors and foibles on installation which were resolved by digging through threads here. It's an amazing archive of information:)
ouuu... I really like the scheme and layout! The image you picked is great! 🙂

Wow, really? I connected to it on 2 different computers and saw it just fine. The only problem I am having right now is not getting it to keep my layout as the default. It keeps reverting to the default one. I wonder if I get sneaky and delete the default skin will it work? 🙂
I am not sure about that error -- maybe it was temporary? Can you try it again sometime today and let me know if you still see it? I am seeing the site fine and uploaded a story and everything looks like it's working properly. I'm confused about the Sock error.
It should look like this when you first see it:
Just checked again and I can see it. That's weird. Maybe the servers were busy and threw that up? I didn't clear my cache or anything. Ah the joys of internet quirkiness.
Your layout is very pretty.

Wow you got back to me so fast, thank you for checking it again:) I'm glad it's working. I will have to keep an eye out just in case anyone else gets that error, it looks ugly so I hope I won't have to deal with it.
🙂
Ah, it's called the powers of GMail that I got back to you so fast. 😉 The composition of your header graphic is really well done.

Thanks very much:)
I have a yahoo group where I had been putting links to stories and there's over 100 members there so I hope they come over to the new fanfic archive and start uploading their stories so it doesn't look quite so empty. 🙂
The pictures you have used are really cute... It's a nice layout you have done.
