We may have some news soon. Stay tuned.

[inkstandapp]

Bad news.

We know none of you will want to hear this, but due to the developer’s current situation and no progress being made recently, we’re having to cancel Inkstand’s development.

If you have any questions, feel free to send us an ask, but for now, Inkstand is no more. 

Sorry again, and we wish you all the best.

Wow, I wonder how much of that donation and indiegogo money actually went on inkstand’s development.

[inkstandapp]

All of it, actually. We are aiming to refund our Indiegogo backers.

Can you tell us what features will be usable on release? Is it going to be something like open beta or a full release?

It’ll be an alpha - all core features will work but the fancy stuff like dashboard themes, subdomains (yoururl.inkstand.me), and a few other things won’t be working on this release. Those will come in the coming months, as they’re big features that require a lot of work.

[inkstandapp]

Will it be possible (or default) to only import original posts from a tumblr and not reblogs?

The importing feature will only import original posts, due to the complication of importing reblogs.

[inkstandapp]

Check out our sweet new home page!

Also, invite keys are being sent out to those who emailed in for the last invite round. We got so many emails and we love reading them to hear why you think you should get in!

We’re on track for an alpha launch mid this month, if all goes according to plan, but we’ll keep you updated!

[inkstandapp]

Sorry about being inactive over the past week! We’re going to have another invite round to make up for it. Send an email to [email protected] with why you think you should get in.

In the next week or so, we’ll be opening up the site to everyone, so you can use it in it’s current state. We’ll make a post when we’re getting closer to that stage than we currently are, and we’ll email everyone with an account when that happens!

Thanks everyone for your continued support of Inkstand :)

[inkstandapp]

the faq doesnt seem to be working :'0 i thought it was my internet at first, but everything else is working fine.

The FAQ is currently down for updates. We’ll post when it’s back.

[inkstandapp]

i got in, but it won't let me do anything! is it just reserving my url for now?

Yeah, it’s just reserving your URL for now. We hope to have it open for invited users to actually use by the end of the month (but that’s a very open-ended goal, it may stretch into January)

[inkstandapp]

And the invites have been sent! If you didn't get one, better luck next time!

[inkstandapp]

Doing another invite code giveaway! This time, send an email to [email protected] with your Tumblr URL and why you think you should get an invite. We’ll pick 50 people to get an invite code.

This will be open for the next 24 hours, and then we’ll send the codes out.

[inkstandapp]

I know you've published an ask for this a day or two ago, but your FAQ link still isn't working. Also, is there a more specific ETA on when you'll be opening applications for early testers?

We’re working on an updated FAQ and will update the link when it’s done.

Applications are open for testers that are able to file bug reports, see our previous posts for information on that.

[inkstandapp]

can we see the blogs of the testers so far?

Yup! You can go to inkstand.me/blog/. Mine’s liepard, so inkstand.me/blog/liepard will take you there.

[inkstandapp]

How come your FAQ isn't working?

Oops! We’ll fix that now.

[inkstandapp]

We’re going to be opening applications for early testers for Inkstand as it stands. We’re going to be pushing updates live to our testers, and you can have the opportunity to have a hand in Inkstand’s development!

If you have experience in HTML, know how to handle a JavaScript console, and can join our IRC channel actively and file bug reports, send an email to [email protected] with your defaults and any experience you have.
