Where oh where, has Aliso gone?

December was a busy month for us, professionally and personally. As a result, she has been unable to blog, or give users of SimpleMap the support she feels they deserve. To top that all off, she is currently in bed with a nasty head cold (who says I never get her anything fun?). At any rate, she will be back on the grid 1/4/10, and doing her best to get caught up.

Two days ago, I had the pleasure of having my computer crash while I was trying to print something. No problem, I thought, this happens sometimes—after all, I do mess around in the command line enough to actually screw something up now and then. I hold down the power button on my iMac until it shuts down, then press it again and hear the familiar Apple “ding.”

I was then greeted by a folder icon with a question mark on it.

I have barely had time to work on SimpleMap lately, but I’m hoping to get a lot done on it this weekend to get 1.2 out of beta. For the benefit of anyone using the beta, here are the bugs I’m aware of.

A friend alerted me to the fact that some browsers weren’t showing the Fugue Sprite properly: everything was showing up as the topmost icon in the image (for example, the first 100 sprites all had the Address Book icon). I did fix it, and I uploaded the new CSS to both my demo page and the ZIP file. Enjoy!

I came across the Fugue icon set a few months ago, and I’m using is often enough that I decided to make something similar to the SilkSprite. I created the Fugue Sprite: a CSS file & set of images that provides easy access to all 2,330 Fugue icons.

I made some incredible progress on version 1.2 over the weekend (I used a couple of vacation days from work, so yesterday was really the end of my weekend). The ability to have multiple maps with only specified categories is DONE. I haven’t fully tested it yet, but that’s what a beta is for! The [...]

The number of comments on the SimpleMap page has now surpassed 150. I am so grateful for all of the feedback I have gotten from users! The downside of this is that the issues/bugs users have reported are sometimes getting lost in the sea of comments. Even though I’m keeping track with my own issue [...]
