If you log onto the current Lambda Literary Foundation website, you’ll see a juicy new splashpage fitted over the old-style content.
You’ll get a hint of just how radical our redesign is going to be.
You’ll also have the opportunity to fill out a form telling us what you want from a site dedicated to LGBT literature. We’re encouraging you to aim high. Want an iPad app? Want more interviews with trans authors? Want to know where to sell your bisexual YA graphic novel? Wondering what’s going on in queer book distribution? Think a queerliterati (oh, yep, I can think of other words for this but will resist) Flickr stream would be awesome? Tell us! And sign up for progress reports by email.
Oh, and if you like what you see, give the LLF some money. (What, you thought you’d get a PSA without a request for cold hard cash? What planet are you from?)

Hey there –
The feedback form is buggy. I just tried to use it and it won't let you finish unless you fill out every “Name An Author You Want To Know More About”. I don't think everyone is going to want to fill that out, but unless you do, you're stuck.
Also, you need to clarify “Classic LGBT Books” – I wouldn't have the slightest idea what that refers to, quite honestly, so I'm guessing there are some others who would be confused by that as well.
Thanks. I'll get on it.
Okay. I just re-tested it and couldn't find a problem.
As for 'classic' books, well, hey, we'll take it out if it's confusing. (Nothing worse than maker a user feel confused.) But, for me, it's one of those relative things: for some people it would be Annie on My Mind, others Loneliness of the Long Distance Runner, others Rubyfruit Jungle or Carol/The Price of Salt or…well, it's a demographics-based relativity.
I just went there and ifound the same glitch mentioned above. I clicked on the first 'about this author' and decided not to put anything there. I scrolled down and completed the rest of the survey. I was quite pleased with what I'd written, too *cue, smiley face* I clicked the submit button and instead of the page submitting, I see the 'I want to know more about this author' portion highlighted in red with a little red note at the top of the page that says, 'Required, Looks like you have a question or two that still needs to be filled in.' It is stuck in limbo and to unstick it I would have to leave the website, come back and start it all over again – which I'm not motivated to do because it is late and I'm tired.
Donna, thanks for letting me know. What browser and OS are you running? We've found that the form is glitching with Firefox on Mac OS X.
We'll figure out how to fix it.
Meanwhile, anyone glitching on this just write 'none' or 'test' in those boxes. Thanks, everyone, for your patience.
