Spring Vacation: Back on May 14

I’m taking a two-week break starting tomorrow, and I’ll be back on May 14.

It’s been a long road over the past several months as I’ve worked to get Big Medium 2 ready for action. Even though that sweet piece of software is nearly finished, I have to confess that code fatigue has set in.

Two weeks in Greece and Italy seem to be just the ticket to refresh mind and spirit. For the first time in years, I plan to unplug for the full two weeks. No e-mail, no websites. Just sunshine, novels, a sketch pad, and the occasional collection of ancient ruins.

I have to confess to a bit of anxiety about going incommunicado for so long — how pathetic is that? — but I’m taking that as a sign that it’s probably overdue.

Alas, this means that I won’t be available for support questions, customer service or website advice until May 14. So do me a favor, willya? Be kind to each other. Help out your fellow Big Medium fans while I’m gone. If you have some ideas about how to answer someone’s question in the beta forum or the current version’s support forum, by all means give it a go.

Feel free, of course, to drop me a line at support@globalmoxie.com (for support/service issues) or jclark@globalmoxie.com (personal). I’ll get back to you as soon as possible after I return... tanned, rested and ready.

Hi Josh. A well deserved and long overdue vacation I'm sure! However, as someone brand new to BM, and trying my best to get a new site launched with it, AND as someone who planned on taking great advantage of your awesome support in the next few weeks, as well as planning to ask you for help in making the templates for me (anyone else out there do this?), I must say your timing (for me) isn't the best! :-(

Have a great vacation anyway. I'm sure when you do come back, we'll all see the benefits as you're able to get back to work on BM with gusto.

I hope some of the more experienced users are able to help fill in for you on the forums.

Thanks.

Hang in there, Brian, I'll be back before you know it with my code and service batteries fully recharged.

In the meantime, I think that you'll find the Big Medium user community to be both knowledgeable and friendly. If you need someone to adapt your existing design into Big Medium 2 templates, posting a note in the beta forum is a good start. I'll also e-mail you the contact info for some Big Medium-savvy designers if you're looking for someone to create a brand new design from scratch. You'll be in good hands while I'm away.

Josh, you deserve it. As long as you keep your word you won't see this until May 14. So, welcome back, I hope it was everything you wanted and more.

If it's not May 14; Josh, immediately walk away from the computer...grab your favorite cold drink and a place in the shade.

All the best.
