Welcome Aboard the New Captain's Quarters!

Welcome to the new Captain's Quarters, with a spiffy new layout from Skinny Dippin' Designs! After a little over four months on Typepad, we outgrew the traffic limitations and so I've set up shop at Hosting Matters. Now I'll be able to customize the site (with Mel's invaluable help) and allow you to do the same. In the next couple of days, Mel will have another "skin" available for you to use. I think you'll like what you'll see. In fact, if you need some web design done, you should give Mel a try ... you won't be disappointed.

A few housekeeping notes:

* The Now Hear This links still connect back to the old site. I will be updating those as we go, but eventually they will all link back to this site.

* I won't be terminating my Typepad service for a while at least, so if you've linked to something I've written, it won't go away. Your Trackback pings all migrated here along with the posts and the comments.

* You'll notice that I've switched to Blogrolling for the links. Yeah, I gave up. But they look a lot better, and now I can track when new posts have gone up. If you link to me and you don't see a link back on one of my blogrolls, the Sister Ships group is now set up as a RecipRoll. If you're linking me through Blogrolling, your blog should appear on this list.

* The categories don't display on each individual post any longer, although I can adjust that later, but the category links will sort everything you need. The timestamp is the permalink for each post.

Let me know what you think of the new site!
