annathepiper: (Final Test)
Anybody out there running Firefox on Linux (preferably Red Hat, but I'll take whatever I can get) want to take a crack at checking out an old bug for me?

We had an old report that this page had its content shifting over to the right when viewed in Firefox on Red Hat. I don't know what version of Firefox or what version of Red Hat, for that matter; that data's not in the bug. (It was opened by somebody who wasn't me, three months before I showed up.)

The bug has been marked as Fixed, and I just want to make sure it's okay. I have no Linux box for QA purposes, so I can't check it out easily myself.

Sing out if you can help, and thanks in advance!
annathepiper: (On the Moon)
So today is International Pixel-Stained Technopeasant Day, a concept which makes me giggle and giggle. I want to post something, but then, the thing I've got in mind isn't in coherent enough form. I need to throw it together into one big coherent draft... but when I do, I will be sharing with you all The Starblade of Radmynn, one of the two novels I wrote when I was in high school.

Meanwhile, I am happy to say that those of us here at the Murk have finally begun getting caught up with the new episodes of Doctor Who. We watched the Christmas Special over the weekend, and tonight we're watching the episode where the new Companion is introduced. Survey says: I like her! She's brainy and she's hot! And I still, still need a proper Ten icon. I will have to go shopping around for just the proper one to express my appreciation of this Doctor. That last bit with Ten leaning all casual-like against the TARDIS in this ep might do it, because damn, he's pretty.

Also, watched the second half of the current two-parter Blood Ties episode last night, which was intriguing in several ways for going in a direction that the novels never did. But I'm wondering about a spoilery thing or two... )

Reading is occurring, both on the two-novels-in-one Tanya Huff I'm still working on as well as The Children of Húrin. The Tolkien, I might add, is a stunningly lovely book. It's a work of art all by itself. I'll be gushing more about this in a forthcoming post.

And! I have a new Kitbook! I continue to adore the cover art for the Walker Papers. I covet [livejournal.com profile] mizkit's cover art, and dream of the day when I can sell a book to Luna and have cover art that gorgeous. Plus, I'm also looking forward to reading the book, which is now on the queue after Tolkien! (I mentioned this to Kit in email today, and she said, "Well, I suppose I can handle coming after Tolkien..." ;) )
