The pun was intentional. I think it’ll be a while before the name becomes available. I was taking a look at it a couple of weeks ago and it was available them. I can’t say it concerns me all that much.

Enjoy you’re sheet music.

Hah, I thought the “You Cunt” thing was intentional. But seeso’s point about name confusion is valid. Before I had you bookmarked on my My.Yahoo page, I tried to find you by memory at work and I ended up at ukehunt.com. Maybe that domain will open up sometime soon?

I do actually like the logo a lot, and I don’t think it’s as much a problem of the logo itself not fitting with the design, but rather how small it is. I think it would be optimal if you could do something similar to what you have, but a lot wider.

Also, while I’m at it, thanks a lot for that recent post about sheet music. I actually went right ahead and bought one of the pieces you linked to, I’ll See You In My Dreams, just because I thought the cover was neat. Now I have a new song to download, a new song to learn to play, and a new movie for my queue. Thanks a lot, you cunt.

Thanks, Caruso. I’m glad it helped. One of the reasons I changed it was because it could be hard to find things the old way.

I like the new style. The design is catchy and neatly arranged. Thist was my first impression and it has been proven by the fact that I found two things I was searching for at first try. Good job!

Glad you like it, Lonna. I think it still needs a few tweaks. I’m just not sure what they are as yet.

You Brockways are all genitally obsessed.

Usually I resist all change, but after taking a look around I think you have made a good thing better.

Everything is very well organized, a place for everything and everything in its place. I personally like the way the old logo looks, still. A little of the old to go with the new, right?

As far as the name of the site goes, I would have voted for the euphemistic UkuLadyParts.

Thanks, Shawn. Actually, UkuLabia is damn good name.

I heard there was a “name the site” competition and that UkeHunt only narrowly beat out other contenders such as UkeLabia. The original idea, UkeVagina, never really caught on.

It’s a wonderful resource, whatever the name.

Nick: Thanks. Jimmy: The layout on the blog page is fairly similar to the old one. There's a link to YouKulele on the bottom right, but it doesn't seem to be going well. The platform I used to set it up is annoying. It's a pain in the arse to use, so people mostly don't.

I’m not a fan. Could you get an old-style skin? It’s harder to find newer stuff. There’s no link to Youkulele, by the way.
