Just love your site, very inspiring ! especiall as i'll move in december into the appart' i've bought recently.
Here ( Switzerland ) it's getting cold, too. And snow has already been forecasted....

After finally packing away all my summer clothes and kicking down some cash for nice comfy fall sweaters and boots--not to mention pulling my massive scarf collection (my office mate has a mad knitting habit) out of storage--it's been in the low- to mid-70s here in San Francisco all week. What gives? How are we supposed to get excited about the holidays when it feels like spring outside? And what am I supposed to wear to work?

Um, how much does the temperature typically (ever?) vary in San Fran?

Hit Starbuck's for some Christmas Blend or Egg Nog Latte, drag out the holiday CDs (I'm a fan of Linda Eder's holiday album, and George Winston for Thanksgiving time), crank up the AC, and throw a wool muffler over a smart tank top. Festive AND fabulous! ;)

Before our record-breaking temperatures this week, I was making noises about "it feels like fall," and my husband from upstate NY was looking at me like I was crazy. He just doesn't get the importance of subtle, five-degree changes in temperature.

(Our average highs vary less than 15 degrees over the year.)

As for Starbucks, I'm not all *that* ashamed to have been in line for my Eggnog Latte the first day it was on the menu. That stuff is addictive.

Hey AT Tech Dept.

Did you recently change the site host to Equinex? I've been unable to access the site for just over a week now and my tech department tell me it's because of a routing conflict. I didn't understand most of it, but the general gist seems to be that our company (a software provider) is also hosted by Equinex and there is a small subset of sites that can no longer be access because of that.

Is this related to the security feature that was recently added when we post comments? Is there any chance that you will change hosts in the future? It is KILLING ME not to have AT access during the day. No one reads what I post at night!

Can someone please tell me how I can submit a "good question" with a photo? Because if you use the "e-mail us" link, it doesn't let you attach a photo. I know that Curtis (or I think it was Curtis) recently had occasion to clarify this, but I can't find that post now that I need it. Sorry if I'm being dense!

Diane--
I think you can just email pics by attaching them to an email sent to editor@apartmenttherapy.com

Or host them somewhere (like flickr or photobucket) and just put the link in with the good question. That's what I usually do.

I think it's interesting that "Small Space Big Style" shows so many apartments that have been profiled on AT. . .

Brandon's apartment is cool. But I still want to know where I can find his huge photo of NY. The ones I've seen on allposters.com and other websites just don't seem as dramatic. Help?

Hey, congrats Brandon on your SSBS debut. I missed it but heard that you were great. It's TiVo'd, so I'll get a chance to see it this weekend.

me (the first one)--
You might consider finding a shot you like at a stock photo company and then having your own blow-up made.
