I haven't been happy with the crappy width that this blog had, but I didn't want to widen the width of the header image and ruin the aspect ratio. Well, I decided to go ahead and do it anyway. If I hadn't told you that I had widened the pictures, you'd never know the difference. When...

If you've upgraded to SP2, you may have noticed that some previous issues have resurfaced. The patch that I wrote to allow the file storage location to relative to the application, and go outside of the application, no longer works as written due to changes to the CSContext object again.

Community Server 2008 is a major upgrade and change in how Telligent is doing business. The audience for Community Server is changing slightly as it really is no longer a good fit for very small communities, especially if you need features that are not a part of the free version. However, Telligent does...

Hey All, The final release of Community Server 2008 is slowly aproaching, which means rebuilds / reworks of existing addons. I will be reworking the Calendar Control slightly to make it work better and be a little more flexable. The project that I'm currently working on had me making a templated...
