Hey folks!

While we don’t have a lot of chances to post news, you can always reach us for support issues by emailing us at webmaster@acaspot.com. Please let us know of any issues you may have.

Also, we have a few ideas for new features, but we want to hear from you. Please post any features you’ve thought of in the comments.

Thanks,

Pull bios from Acaspot for your website

Thursday, April 10th, 2008

Did you know you can pull your members’ bios from Acaspot through an iframe for your website?  All you have to do is copy and insert the following code:

<iframe frameBorder="0" src="http://www.acaspot.com/group?g=1&i=1" style="width: 600px; height: 470px"></iframe>

However, the URL in this code must match your particular group id.  Go to your Acaspot home page and click on your group’s profile.  The URL will be something similar to:

http://www.acaspot.com/group?g=1

All you have to do is add &i=1 to the URL (which tells Acaspot to return the page formatted correctly for a 600px wide iframe) and put it into the iframe code above, then use the code on your website.

Say hello to another 200 MB of free storage!

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

Each group’s storage space has been increased, again, to a total of 500 MB.  We’ve continued to see a higher demand for the space, and thanks for using AcaSpot!

Don’t forget that if you have any feedback for AcaSpot, you can post it in the comments on the AcaSpot blog.  You’ll have to register for the blog, but it’s fast and free, and a great way to communicate with us.
