She should be in my arms tonight. I looked at all the other ladies but I kept being drawn back to Lucille.

Anyhoo, my setup is different the the usual as I manage the DNS aspect of my domain name with EasyDNS and I also host my own email system. They said it wouldn't be a problem to keep it that way, I hope that's true.

So any tips to making my venture into the world of Blu as smooth as possible?

If your host is like mine- they require the mail to be on the same server as the DNS for domain names. BluDomain offers email, but double-check with your registrar

Realmstalker - I'm hosting with Blu, but I'm hopign I can still retain congtrol of my DNS and E-mail, it's doable as I do that now with Zenfolio, I just it works with them.

Sam - Congrats! The wife and I are babyless.....for now.

Damn it you guys, I hadn't fallen for Sam until people started talking then I got sucked into clicking...

Congrats on the new site, you might want to fiddle with the permissions on your photos though so that other users on your server can't change them.

That's it, Sam needs to be be banned or have his link posting rights revoked!

Congrats on selecting the template!

Sam, want to setup a pre-aranged wedding? Your newest has my daugher beat by about two weeks.

It took a while for me, but I had some mixups with payments - only sent $100 when I should have sent $200 because I am not hosting with them.

I ordered Saturday, they sent me an email Monday, I sent payment Monday, they said they didn't know what template I had chosen on Wednesday, I told them Wednesday, and I think I got my site Thursday.

So I guess it didn't really take that long, all things considered. I did put in a site ticket on Thursday and then they got a little more snappy.

aah, not too bad. I just read their blog, apparently the mother of half their staff passed away last night. I'm not expecting my site today...not to sound callous I'm just anxious, I have a massive local ad going out in January and I need 2 websites up and running in the next week to prepare for it, business cards to tie into the design, flyers, etc.

Mine was quick, put in my order at 1:30pm and received an email that my template was ready by 8:30pm. I've read some bad stories but so far so good for me.
