We're finishing up a few odds and ends before our next major release. Our mighty Ops guys continue to slay spambots and balance load times on a highwire without a safety net (which is kind of tough dressed in full ninja gear). Down on solid ground, we're celebrating this week's virtual birthday party with a warm toast to pants. If you can rearrange the letters of your favorite city, state, and/or country (feel free to combine these elements) to spell one of Frank's favorite treats (e.g., pants, wire, paper, etc.), he'll send you over a can of whipped cream to top it all off (provided you return the empty can for his midnight snack)! And, with that, let the word scrambling commence!

Stuff you should know:

We're still working on the delayed/missing notifications issue. Sorry, we're frustrated too. We'll keep you posted. Last week, we became aware that a recently-implemented script was overwriting affiliate referral fees for some of our users. Once we confirmed this, our Ops team quickly removed the script. Please be aware that, while we may beta-test other affiliate scripts down the line, we will take greater measures to ensure that no existing user-referral arrangements are impacted in any way. While we plan to stick to a weekly news schedule, if we have a release in between regular newsletters, we'll post here to keep you informed. You can also check lj_releases for current release information.

To our paid users, we send squirrels in love!

If you have a paid or permanent account, you can send five free Squirrels in love vgifts through Monday, March 15th at 4pm, PST! You'll see both the free and the $0.99 squirrels displayed until they've scurried off to their new homes. Please send only one vgift at a time. In other words, you'll need to complete check-out and start a new order for each vgift you send. If you're not receiving vgifts (from friends and/or Frank), you may have disabled them. To enable vgifts, visit Edit profile (under Profile), scroll down to the bottom of the page, and select 'Do not disable' from the drop-down menu. Have fun!

Help is on the way!

We're pleased to announce the winner of our first charitable vgift poll, Doctors without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières, which provides critical medical care to under-served populations around the world. Priced at $2.99, we'll donate 100 percent of the proceeds we raise from the sale of this vgift (we'll cover credit card fees). We invite you to start recommending nonprofits for our next fundraising drive at ljnewscontests. We'll take suggestions through the month and post a poll in the news during the first week of April to let you choose the recipient. We thank you, again, for your passion and generosity.

We've crowned a header

Congratulations to ohterlus for submitting the winning header, which will go live next week and keep us leafy through mid-April! You can submit designs for our next header contest at ljnewscontests now until March 31st. We'll post a poll in the news to let you decide which header will sit at the top of LiveJournal from mid-April to mid-May. All artistic interpretations are welcome. The winner will get a $25 LiveJournal gift certificate. All other contributors will receive $5 gift certificates. Our heartfelt appreciation for sharing your talent and creativity!

For this week's winning photo and more adventures with Frank & Meme, we'll catch you under the cut!

If you want to skip out the other bits of the program, the bit with the Rime of the Modern Mariner starts in the main and around 19 mins, 10 seconds in. Interviews with Carl, Anthony and Mark, presented/narrated by Jon McClure. Looks fantastic!

Do you have a burning question that requires extraordinary insight and diplomacy? You've come to the right place. No matter if you're having trouble with a boundary-less roommate, a back-stabbing coworker, or an unresponsive agent representing your debut novel, simply post your detailed query, and magical help is on the way.

For parents and parents-to-be, little questions, like whether to use cloth or disposable diapers or the going rate of allowance for high schoolers, can inspire lively debate. If you have a parenting dilemma that warrants discussion, bring it! From baby food to video gaming, you can meet, and gain wisdom from, other folks who are tackling the same issues. And, if you're a teen, first-hand insight is especially welcome.

A relatively new spin-off of the ever-popular ohnotheydidnt, this community found its inspiration in the under-representation of creepy posts. If you're a fan of urban legends, paranormal activities, and eerily disturbing images, you've found a new hang-out. Posts range from personal stories to odd pictures that highlight supernatural or unexplained phenomena. Be forewarned: It's weirdly addictive.

I didn't put the LJ logo on it, because I figured LJ would do it themselves for whatever entry that won. I don't expect mine to, but I don't care. I entered for fun. (:
