Where does "self-hosted" Wordpress falls under?
Recently I added my two blogs to Blog Flux. I really like the site, and the services here.
But one thing keeps bugging me:
When registering a blog, under "Optional information" there's a dropdown for "Blog Software"; it defaults to the first option (b2Evolution) and there's no way to *not* choose anything, so effectively it's not really optional. Worse, there is no "other" option you can pick when nothing in the list applies to your blog -- and nothing does, for both of my blogs.
The result is that 1) I'm forced to lie about what software I'm using (and I hate that), and 2) the share of b2Evolution is artificially inflated (why should I?).
One of my blogs is using My Opera (not in the list), and for the other I'm using my *own* blogging software (no "other", no "own software"). I've tried various ways to alert Blog Flux to this omission, but apparently no one is paying attention, and I have not even received any confirmation that my messages were received.
Please, Blog Flux, add TWO more options --at least-- or better even three:
1. My Opera
2. -Other-
3. Own software
Thanks,

Indeed, the software list was soon expanded - thanks, Blog Flux!
Apparently this "Talk" option works better than the contact form or direct email. ;)

All valid points. Thanks for the feedback. Fixed :) Let me know if there's anything else.
