WriteLit.com is Back! Content Creation Enabled

Editorial Body: 

After almost a month of upgrading the site, content creation is again enabled. It took a while for the site to be upgraded because this upgrade was a major one and there were some very tricky steps which I had to figure out. The difficulty of the upgrade combined with some personal issues which I had to take care of made this upgrade longer than I had intended.

We're Upgrading Again; Content Creation/Editing Disabled

To serve you better, and improve the site, we are upgrading from Drupal 4.7 to Drupal 5.0 so I've disabled creation and updating of content in the meantime.

'Captcha' Enabled During Registration

Editorial Body: 

To prevent our site being spammed, I've enabled captcha during registration of new users. Captcha is "a type of challenge-response test used in computing to determine whether the user is human."

In our case, if you're a new user, you will be asked to solve a simple math problem during registration. I hope this first line of defense against spam bots will work so that I won't have to enable captcha during posting of content. Just e-mail me at writelit at gmail dot com if you encounter any problem.

Had to Restore Site, Please Re-post your Content

Editorial Body: 

Hi folks,

There was something wrong with WriteLit.com and my other sites, so we had to restore from previous backups. I was wondering if the sites were hacked, but my web host said no. At any rate, we're still looking into it.

Anyway, because of the problem, some of your most recent posts have been lost. I would greatly appreciate it if you can post your content -- and your comments -- again.

Also, if you have recently registered, you may need to register again.

I'm really sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you for understanding.

Former 'Review' Now 'Solo-Review'

Editorial Body: 

If you want an alternative to the rated review content type, in which you have to add an Amazon node first, and then create a review below it, you now have the option to use the former 'review' content type, which is now named 'solo-review.'
