Tabulas Status
Since there are quite a few new people joining Tabulas, I'll write a quick post that'll explain a lot of stuff about Tabulas:
- Tabulas is still a fledgling service. It is by no way a polished project. Unfortunately, I've tied my time down with another project (which will interest you people who like the gallery system here), so I haven't been able to work on fixing bugs or new features.
- There are a ton of new features in planning for the next upgrade of Tabulas. However, there is NO development for Tabulas right now, meaning any new features would happen within weeks at the earliest.
- Tabulas is mainly free because of a personal philosophy regarding service-based sites. However, understand that although this personal philosophy allows for all these free features, you should always consider going to paid accounts when possible. It's only $25/year and will go a long way in supporting this site. Unfortunately there is very little you get from getting a paid account right now besides more space for your gallery and access to hit logging data. But this will change as I get a chance to work on new features.
- There will never be advertisements on your journals. However, we ask you do NOT try to hide or remove the top navigation bar (regardless of how ugly it is. So consider it a trade-off.
- There are no plans to "roll-back" or restrict free features unless it becomes financially impossible for me to continue supporting this site without rolling back features. I am a jobless student, so this site doesn't exactly have the deepest pockets.
If you're having issues or problems, please comment below. I try my best to handle all support questions promptly.

I noticed payment option is only by paypal. Paypal isn't available in the Philippines. I hope you consider other payment options like 2checkout.com/credit card options as our country have a lot of potential users. I've been promoting it when there were less than 10 users but look our country could be the second largest group next to the USA.
Keep it up :)

This may already have been reported, but it was just something that took me a while to figure out when putting in my usericons. I would hope that having "no changes" selected would result in no changes...

I guess we'll just have to wait for development to re-start, any ways...

can there be an option for the posting to NOT get e-mail notifications by default?
can there be a [/break] to end read more area?
can there be a [break="my own text] so it shows as ("my own text") instead of ("read more")
thanks :)
tabulas
that's an option for the future =)

P.S. I hope the "ugly top bar" remark wasn't from me.

potential bug:
when i try to use my own style for my entries. all my entries disappear
suggestion:
is there a way to have the comment box below the comments? i prefer to read the comments before comment.
thanks :)
tabulas
There is no way to customize the comments output yet - this is an upcoming feature when I upgrade the templating engine =)
