Thanks for all the positive feedback everyone.

No, I can't rename all the cliparts...it gets too outta control!

There are different ways we can find your original join date, but some may be harder than others and I can't guarantee anything. We can try. The biggest problem might be time to do the work for 3000 people!! Most will be automatic, but people that changed names, well I'm sure you understand.

Halfunit: You want in? Whatcha offering? :) (just kidding....soon enough we'll need some volunteers to test, but first I need to finish some technical stuff)

Neil, you do seem to have such fun with all this.

Fly expressed such respect for you, in providing this site and 'caressing' it to become what it is today, for so many folks.

This would tickle her fancy to no end:)

Admin, great job!! Things are really looking good. I have one question. Will we still have the new messages feature? You are doing a wonderful job and ITA that Fly would be so proud of the way this is all being done!! Who would have thought that one wonderful lady could touch so many lives in such a wonderful way.

If we don't have the new messages feature, I think we can all stage a walk out ala George

Pamy, I had to rejoin every year because , at first, I didn't come much when BB wasn't on and, therefore, my membership would lapse. I was always Jasper from the beginning, but last year someone else had that name when I came to rejoin so I used my own name..jan

so Admin, if you do check under any old names I will be Jasper from year 1 when you first designed the site...but I certainly understand that you cannot do that for 3000 people, so don't worry about it :)

Thanks Jan!

I came to the site within a few weeks of it forming. I joined then left for a few weeks came back to the new design, thought it was a different board. Can't even remember whether I started out as Azriel and rejoined under Azriel1104 or whether I was always Azriel1104. Then I changed my name to Azriel right before Game 2.

It's a murky trail to track now, so I'm just going to take whatever join date I ended up with and not worry about it. If anyone tries to get snotty because they think they have been around longer than me, well neener neener I don't care!

I was kstme on that first board. I lost my orginal place because I was away for a few months. Soooo my place in line is just as messed up as the rest of you.

Good work on the new board, Neil!

I like it better with the General Forums above the Reality TV area. Keeps it more in line with how it is now.

I know I don't use The Clubhouse area much. So for me it would work to have it at the bottom. But, I can see where it would be best to put it at the top for the newer members. I can live with skipping down the page to the stuff I use the most.

You can tell is where the test location is. We won't tell anyone. :)

Anyone have the urge to grab that scrollbar at the right of the pic, and see what the bottom of the page looks like?

Hey, where is the Games Folder? I don't see it under General Forums, and I assume it wouldn't be under Reality TV. Also, the TV Shows folder (I assume that one wouldn't be under Reality TV). Is there another category those folders will be under?

OK, silly thought here. Really minor, but as long as things are being revised a bit....Why is the personal folders area in the Members room called Message Board? I found that confusing when I first got here. Any reason why it can't be called Personal Folders? Or Member Folders? I'm used to it the way it is, and don't really have a gripe. I'm just trying to think of the newbies, and help them find the personal folders area better. I've often seen people asking where they are.

It's looking great. I can't wait to see the real thing!

Are you guys telling me that you can actually read that?????

Pamy

Sunday, August 31, 2003 - 04:17 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
and that you know how to actually find it?

Admin

The topic layout is just a sample. That can easily be changed anytime.

Message Board vs. Personal Folders
I called it message board because that's what I envisioned it as. Nobody has ever suggested a name change. It's grown into what it is now. I've recommended to the software creators that such an area come as a standard feature and be automatically generated when you install the software, but we'll see if they agree.

I'm sorry I'm a tease. I'm just excited...wanted to share that excitement. Unfortunately, things are not appropriate for mass testing yet. I'm sorry, I should have just kept my mouth shut.

I should mention at this point I'm aiming for a go live date of Jan.1, 2004. I know that's a long way away, but there are many hurdles to overcome, and parenthood, work, family etc. are not even included! Ideally we'll be up before that date, but I want to be realistic without putting too much pressure on myself or anyone else. I work best when relaxed and not under pressure. That should help things move quicker!

I hope everyone is okay with my projections and decisions that affect us all. Thanks!
