Im preparing to release some new software over the weekend, as well as some revisions to existing software, mainly phptweetpic and twitterfollow.
The updates to twitterfollow will include more controls and some other features, and tweetpic will include an oauth version as well as some bug fixes and admin area redesign.
Stay tuned!
Just made a couple updates to the WV ReTweeters (@beckleyrt, @princetonrt, @charlestonrt, @morgantownrt, and @huntingtonrt)

Ran into a unique problem when i switched servers from innohost back to hostgator(more on that later). Aparently, for some reason passing a full url to wvurl's api (wvurl.com/api-create.php) caused the server to return index.php and its subsequent headers.
After much time spent with support finding out if it was something server side to blame, I found a workaround by using str_replace to replace the colon in the url, with %3A and then pass the URL to the script.
