I upgraded to the latest Wordpress and am having trouble with the Admin page. It comes up but within a second goes blank. Anyone know anything about this and what to do? Thx in advance.
David Macauley:
THis is an overly simplistic answer, but have you tried a different browser? Or accessing it from a different computer?

Then i could get in and just apply a new theme. that was a fun night lol

How does a meet up event with the NOVA group sound? We could all meet in Tysons or Arlington (clarendon/ballston).
kate:
there are a zillion places in tysons - so it really depends on your definition of 'cool'!

Do you have a favorite wordpress theme? It can be one that you are currently using or just have admired in passing. One of my faves is "Arthemia", my current theme, Modularity Lite and Arras. Any others you'd like to recommend?
