    Hopefully, more of the old forum members will come back around. This new web site venue is far more feature rich with much easier to navigate methods and no more reaching around one’s back-side to scratch their ear in order to get images uploaded and posted. Many Kudos to Barry for providing a support website with far more feature rich enhancements and functionality.

    I’m guilty of lurking. But I am back up and running. I finished my Hot Chilicon build tonight and tested it positively. So I have I think five full circuits that need to be boxed and one that is boxed but needs to be painted from February. So I haven’t posted any pictures in a LONG time. I’ll help lead the way shortly. You’re doing great!

    We used to have a bit more interaction at the old site host. Unfortunately the old host (WEBS) was not keeping up to date with the times and as a result security was becoming an issue and then finally PayPal released an update that said if your Host does not meet these standards you have two months to figure it out.

    Well needless to say I spent every waking moment of two months rebuilding this site from scratch. You may think I could have used an FTP protocol but according to (WEBS) there was none as they had a proprietary system so using an FTP protocol to transfer information was not an option.

    The final result after a panic riddled two months is this brand new site with up to date security, features and a much more intuitive search feature when looking for SHOP items or Forum searches.

    The only thing I am missing about the old site since last August is the audience participation.

    I am hoping with time that will start to happen again here. We had a lot of great conversations before and i look forward to more in the future right here. Thanks for your thoughtful post Cybercow.

    I love the new search function and I use it alllll the time. And I think you did a great job redesigning here Barry! Unfortunately just before the swap (and my move) I think I stocked up on a lot of things so I’m plodding my way through projects. And except for a few minor issues they’re all working nicely. But as a result I’m not starting as many tech support discussions and haven’t placed an order in a while. Pretty soon I’ll be working on boxing up a whole bunch of projects and I look forward to sharing those here. That was always my favorite part! Besides, then I get to restock.
