I agree that it should be easier to add a name for the package, so I'll look in to getting that feature in.

As for getting to the main page...just click on the logo. That's about as easy as it gets. :)

Thanks for the idea Josh.

So are you aware of the "Archive" feature? It's the little brownish icon next to the number. If you click that, it moves the package to your "Archive" area (accessible via the link at the top). That then shows all of your packages from newest to oldest.

Shpigford reported a problem in Adobe on March 19, 2009 18:40:

Not able to select multiple color swatches with the color picker when using Save for Web & Devices.

I'm not able to select multiple color swatches with the color picker when using Save for Web & Devices.

I'm using Photoshop CS4 on Mac OS X (10.5.6).

In CS3 you could hold down shift with the Color Picker tool in Save for Web and select multiple color swatches to to make them transparent...now holding down shift does nothing.

So if you're doing something like trying to make a gradient area transparent, you will have to individually select dozens of swatches in the Color Table to make them transparent.

Another person who has this problem as well (see their last paragraph):

Got ya.

So what specific notifications would you be interested in getting DM'd for? Every new "step" (there can be a dozen or more steps for each package) or just things like "Out for Delivery" and "Delivered"?

Thanks for the suggestion Morgan.

I'm curious...what form of input would you be using to send in your DM to twitter? My hesitation here is that most people would be going to the actual twitter website...which doesn't really offer any benefit than just going to the actual trackthepack.com site to enter your number.

Broken images galore on Lifehacker

Looks like some older posts on Lifehacker have broken images all over the place.

Shpigford reported a problem in Beanstalk on March 10, 2009 18:09:

Commit speed is painfully slow

I recently started using Versions.app to handle SVN interfacing with Beanstalk.

Lately (in the past few days), commits to Beanstalk can take upwards of 5+ minutes for a single file. The size of the file is nominal (under 1KB).

This is the first I've had this request from a user so we'll see what the demand ends up being like.

Thanks for the suggestion!

kjgillis, thanks for the suggestion! We've got a ton of new features on the horizon so I'll see if I can get this implemented.

Shpigford replied on February 21, 2009 18:55 to the question "Did the company/person get it in the hand?" in TrackThePack:

That's a great question. Those status messages are pulled directly from the carrier (UPS, FedEx, etc). Many times they're incredibly cryptic.

But 99% of the time, the package hasn't been delivered until you see a message that says "Delivered."

dario: Also, would you mind emailing me some EMS tracking numbers? The more numbers I can test, the better.

Yep. I'll be adding a few additional carriers in the coming few weeks.

Thanks for the input!
