New front page!

January 18, 2006

There has been a TON of work going on with Tabulas lately - I've automated the billing center, started consolidating subsections of Tabulas (like help.tabulas.com), and started rewriting the backend of Tabulas.

Today is the first day I get to actually show YOU guys something that you can benefit from!

Tabulas has a brand new front-page. I know the old version had more character, but this one is much easier for me to maintain, and I think it's much cleaner

You'll notice the new front page also combines the old help center in one location ... and the new help center is now combined with a SUPPORT center! That's right... you can start submitting help tickets if you need help with your accounts.

For you patron (paid) account members, you can also now track when you made your last payment and when your account will downgrade from the accounts page. This page will also show you what your account quotas as well!

I am spending nearly all my free time on Tabulas development, so I hope to have TONS of exciting news for you guys regarding new Tabulas features in the near future!

I think I've earned the right to plug the upgrades...

please please PLEASE if you think Tabulas is a nice product, please consider upgrading to a patron account; it's only $28/year, $16/six months or $9/three months. Ever since I removed advertisements from all journals, patron accounts are the ONLY way I can pay off the server fees!

You need to be more specific - which accounts are you getting logged in as?

i don't know why i chose green. for some reason, tabulas has always had this shade of green. it seems to be a relatively underused color - in the past i would experiment with other colors (which is why i had that past blue one) ... but now i'm just gonna stick with green.

as for your question - yes it's redundant. not necessarily a bad thing - the 'your site' is grouped with the other links - i may change where the left one links later on. not sure yet. just trying things out.

Ok, I'm confused by that active payment stuff. It states my active payment is the one that was paid on October price of $28, but I took one of your deals in Dec of 2004, which means I should be on a $14/year plan, which it only shows as a Check/Money order (it was actually paid through PayPal as well).

I *will* be billed $14 right the next payment right? Also, I *should* be billed this amount on October, but because the deal was in December, my Paypal subscription won't auto-renew until December, so what's going to happen?

Whoops, meant to say $16, forgot the amount. Anyway, the plan I'm on should be this one. http://tabulas.com/~tabulas/590323.html

And yeah, I just want to iron out all the possible issues regarding this before they occur like they did in the past (getting downgraded to patron account taking the deal, then getting double-billed last year). A possible solution is to just use the December billing date, since I realize that I still have technically overpaid you.

1. Oct '04, paid $28, so subcription to end Oct '05
2. Dec '05, paid $16 for new deal, should've extended my subscription by one year to Oct'06
3. Oct '05, Paypal auto-paid $28
4. Dec '05, Paypal auto-paid $16, noticed I was double-billed this year, talked to you, you refunded Oct '05's payment. My subscription should technically be till Oct '07 (next year) now.

My suggestion is that I'll just pay Dec '06 (this year) anyway through Paypal's auto-subscription at $16 and I'll eat the 10 months difference. Consider it a donation.

I love the new front page, it's really spiffy. Thanks for all the work you're dedicating to tabulas :D It makes things so much better even for non-patron accounts (: Perhaps I'd get a patron account sometime soon (: Can't wait for the new features to be up! Do have a good rest and keep things to a comfy pace though!
