you need to use IE to sign up

Hell-In-A-Handbasket's Realm

trying the blog thing.

Bcoz they're good beta tester
& Shukaria Waqas Saab!

My MSN space! Too bad I couldn't just get "justin". I really love this new service from MSN, I hope premium paid accounts get more storage than the free ones.

Cool, I probably won't use it much, But Thought id register and get my name and stuff before they start limiting features to non-paying customers

koi baat nahin Zahid sahib... my honor

MSN Spaces is damn slow....i think i need a Shuttle to browse

i think its a combo of being hammerd for signups / transmiting updates to www.weblogs.com

Now thats one way to stop me coming back to the site.

@hypoxiaicon: do you have anything in your MSN "space" yet? i tried to access and it said i didn't have permission.

EDIT: Also interesting to note that my page (http://spaces.msn.com/members/sesh/) with just one of the standard theme's and no posts, was well over 170KB according to Opera. Do Microsoft think we all have broadband?

Yup, ive made a blog entry (Cant seem to edit my profile pic though) and added a playlist plus photo's in the album.

mujahy nahi pata tha kay urdu bhai chaltee hai. Good

well still no luck getting to is

perhaps it has something to do with me using Opera.

As for not being able to sign up without IE. Opera's "Identify as IE" option seems to work. After the initial page I changed back and there has been no other trouble apart from the beforementioned message.

Sorry to say, but i'm almost certain you have to use Internet Explorer Internet browser at the moment.

Maybe this will change when Spaces gets past the Beta stage.

Here is what we are seeing hypoxiaicon

It's in spanish, too.

Hey, did you configure your space to be public? (Configuration>Permissions). The default option only allows your contacts to see your space.

heheheh..jee jee ..Urdu Rox.

mine is That's Crazy Talk

Hypoxi.

i think its yours dude, i got mine opening in FireFox as a homepage tab with no problems.

so i know its not IE specific.

*Edit* yours came up in FF

Try Now,

http://spaces.msn.com/members/hypoxiaicon/

ye shows up in FireFox now. should be good

Hmm it looks rather lackluster; how is the administration panel?

http://spaces.msn.com/members/deansweb2004/ is Mine!

MSN Spaces works perfectly with both FF and IE. The only thing it, for some things, such as importing WMP playlists and having a fading photo, you need to use their ActiveX controls. They built it, however, so those of you who don't use IE will still be able to browse it fine (although just not as flashy).

I'm hoping they'll allow us to import from an RSS feed. That would be awesome!

yup, same here, but is very slow thought

That's mine, first Wallop now this.

I'm kinda hoping in the end Wallop and Spaces will be combined. For example, your Wallop blog will be linked to your Spaces blog. Either that, or they'll incorporate what worked in Wallop into Spaces. Hmm...

Im hoping that aswell, Wallop is cool, i definatly like the network feature, but i like the spaces ui more, i just cant seem to like wallops.

Btw, anyone had any success with msn7 and spaces, aparently stuff shows up on the contect card of a person with a space.

Edit: Just found something, can anyone with firefox change the theme of their space, when i try to, the page just refreshes, nothing more.

no idea, i think im the only one on my list that is using 7 Beta. let alone spaces. but i was wondering teh same thing. can people see that we have a space?

*Edit* jsut notived something how many people's custom list mainly includes only FireFox links's or Neowin links.

i know mine does.

*Yet* another blog site... whoop-de-fooking-doo

I added myself to my own contact list then viewed the contact card, and it does have spaces stuff on it, but it looks more like a ad than anything.

Apparently, if you look at the uifile for the contact card, you will find non-working hidden links to stuff in the space, like the blog.

Edit: Damn this thing is slow, i swear i clicked Add entry on the blog bit over a minute ago.

Edit 2: Finally got to the Add entry thing in firefox, turns out they use a custom ie only thing to enable html editing, that means posting looks like a ie only thing.

I have. When an MSN 7 contact adds posts to their blog, they get a little start on the bottom left of their status icon. Clicking on their contact card shows a list of recent blog posts where you guys are getting that text.


It seems to go fast for me. Keep in mind it's Beta, and they don't know the load factor yet. Should improve very soon.

Mine looks totally diffrent

Im getting rendering problems in ff, Hypoxiaicon's page is messed up, and Hell-In-A-Handbasket, nothing major with your's, it's just your picture is stuck in the top left corner.

define stuck, opened it in FF and IE with exception of the Photo Album doesnt rotate images everythign looks the same here

well seeing as everyone is posting there Spaces link, here's mine

http://spaces.msn.com/members/jazza2/

I think I will give it a go

On the main page, with your profile, the image isnt in there, it is floating above it, stuck to the top left of the window.

I'm liking this

lol thats funny, looks like a problem with the style sheet. what browser is it. try just hitting the reload button. i know at 1 point it didnt want to load the SS at all, had to reload and it fixed itself

Actually this is the best looking blog website I've ever seen.

I just tried it. Rendered fine in IE 6 and FF 1.0. Perhaps just a temporary style error.

yea i like the theaming/module part of it, havent noticed blog sites with that, they pretty much all look the same from the couple that i saw int eh past. pluss i like that it integrates with Messenger that way people can tell when an update has happened. not having to spam the page every day.

LOL, i refreshed your page and got the same error, refreshed again and the image was gone. Also, im on Firefox 1.0

site must not like you, not my fault

It must not, i keep getting 404 errors.

Edit: Nope, my fault, somehow i switched on the user agent switcher extension, changed it back to default and it rendered fine.

Now if Google would integrate a blog with Gmail, and offer some way to import your entries from other sites' blogs, they would truly be on the path to world domination
