Help! (Tech support for the minimalist) Posted on: Monday, January 28, 2008

Filed Under: Help!

Welcome to the imaginary land of Lovely County. We’ll develop tech support documents with words and pictures (with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one, natch.) But, for the moment, here’s a brief introduction to Lovely County:

The Park Bench

Is Lovely County’s friendly forum. Banter, chit chat and out and out self-promotion are welcome. Spamming and insulting other posters… not so much. No flaming or offensive content. Why? Because it isn’t lovely.

You don’t have to register to post a question or comment on the Park Bench, but registration gives you access to all the features of the forum and…

The Gallery

A place for you to post photos of your trip, your pets, your family or your goodies for sale. You do have to be registered to upload photos to the Gallery.

To register, go here and click on the “Register” link in the upper right hand corner of the page. This registration will give you access to both the Park Bench and the Gallery.

Lovely Voices Blogs

Start by looking at some of the examples on the Lovely Voices page. Like butterflies, blogs are free… and you can use them to record and promote everything from your business to your family photo album to your philosophy of life.

You can get your free blog now and start experimenting. If you already have a blog somewhere else (like WordPress or MySpace), let us know and we’ll connect it to your Lovely Voices blog so you can post away on your regular blog and watch your words appear in Lovely County… like magic!

This is important: Read this. (No, really.) Your blog login (user name and password) is not the same as your Park Bench/Gallery.

For now, just look around, click on a few links, and get comfortable with your new imaginary world. We’ll post tech support answers here as questions arise.

  1. Hello-
    I have a blog for the Eureka Springs Outdoor Alliance at www.esoutdooralliance.blogspot.com and I logged in to have our blog represented on your lovely county page. I have started a Eureka Springs Outdoor Alliance blog on the lovely county page, but I would like it to show the content on our existing blog, without having to maintain two blogs. Is this possible? Please let me know.
    Thanks,
    Nick Cross

  2. Yes! If you already have a blog somewhere else (WordPress, Blogspot, MySpace, etc.) set up a lovelycounty.com blog here: New Blog, then let us know what your blog address is and we’ll connect it.

    When you post on your existing blog, the content will magically appear on lovelycounty.com. (External blogs update a couple of times a day.)

    Your Eureka Springs Outdoor Alliance blog is set up. Great photos! We look forward to following your adventures.
