We have so many hosted free blogs that we need to commission another server before we can permit further accounts. Our servers are currently operating well within their allowable capacity, and to prevent any inconvenience to our clients we will not be overloading them with further accounts.

Please check back in the  next week or so when our new server comes online.

Plugtastic Reloaded site

Rumour has it that the medical team has performed a full 10,000 klm service on Artie, and inserted a shiny new springy thingy to keep him ticking for another hundred or so years.

Get well soon Artie, we all miss you and your plugs!!!!

Well it was overdue, and the blog system needed spam-bot proofing, so we got to work and revamped the entire site.

Bloggers now get a choice of 5 different templates or themes to choose from at the moment. Basically, there is Red - Blue - Green - Gold and this default bluish theme to display your blog in.

All the bugs and glitches have been attended to, so no more error messages about headers already being sent or page not found etc.

We have added a code number into the signup system to try and stem the flow of the thousands of pea-brained spammers and their blog-bots from creating useless wasted space blogs about their viagra experiences!

Spammers creating accounts manually, will still have to contend with posting manually, and park their bots elsewhere while on this site. Any promotional sites chasing click-thru’s, adverts, backlinks or page rank will be carefully monitored until they are producing a nice referer result for their site owner, and then we will edit them to reflect our own sites and products after you have done all the hard work. So spammers - be warned.

Genuine Bloggers on the other hand are more than welcome, and can blog away to their hearts content, using one of the best free blog sites available here in Australia.

At the moment, you can select different background, border, and font colors, along with some exciting new fonts and sizes! Not only that, but then you can choose from a small series of animations to apply to your banner image.

There are lots of animation features on the drawing board including water reflections, text effects, oh and we are adding in the ability to select from different image backgrounds too. Presently you can choose effects like jumping text, or heart-beats, plus the usual glitters , snow storms and pouring rain. If you are looking for glitter, then try the “Flies” effect!

We found that different combinations of colors, fonts, sizes and effects can actually produce a lot more variations than what are listed. All in all, a great little tool as it updates every time you select a change, and you can even click the “update” button if you have entered a different text caption or position!

Give it a try here at OziFree.com It can’t be too bad as we have noticed that it is listed here as a useful tool as well.

First we saw the new Timed Sky Banners make their debut with animated planes flying across the screen towing little advertising banners with the name of the web site they were promoting. The clever little planes begin flying at the top of the plugboard when first plugged or posted, and as time elapses, they begin flying lower and lower, until finally they reach the tarmac and become vacant again.

It’s an interesting concept that provides a unique twist to the basic plugboards, as pluggers do not even need to have their own button image, just a site title and the URL they wish to link to.

The latest addition to the plugboards stable, is the new and very unique Ferris Wheel plugboard. The wheel is now available currently decked out in the OziFree Christmas livery, that will revert to a skinnable typical Ferris Wheel, as soon as the festive season is over.

At the moment, 8 cute little smileys continually don their Santa suits as they rotate around the wheel, then they brush behind a Christmas tree, before appearing in the Gondola Station, where they can be clicked on to visit the web site they promote.

An interesting feature for the absolutely bored plugger is the ability to move the mouse cursor in the station and rapidly increase the speed at which the wheel revolves. Placing the cursor once again on a gondola while it is in the station stops the wheel from turning, until the cursor is moved outside the station square.

This would have to be one of the best examples of a Ferris Wheel Plugboard that we have seen yet.

Everything is now managed from one menu bar, with drop down sub-menus. Some categories with many sub-pages such as the Nigerian 419 email scams have an additional menu-bar located at the top of each page.

Another big change is that the single plugboard page has now been replaced with individual pages for each different PlugPanel. Each PlugPanel now displays the installation code required at the bottom of the page.

We have gone all out and have purchased our own HP Proliant web server, and have co-located it directly within a major data-center in Australia. This way we have direct connection to the internet, and are no longer reliant upon the routers and web servers of others.

Genuine blogs are welcome - spammers can rot in hell with their sex sites and viagra.

We have decided to retain the original “trade-mark” layout and colours, and to incorporate the OziFree theme as a template into our new site.

Our PlugPanel users will be aware that all the PlugPanel installation and download pages will shortly be moving across to www.plugpanel.com to coincide with the release of the Next Generation PlugPanel Series 3.

What’s the catch? We run a few, and we mean only a few adverts on your blog. There are NO PopUp adverts, or new windows opening, just plain old-fashioned adverts that are un-obtrusively and strategically placed on your site. Your can read more on OziFree blogs here on the home page.
