Well, here we are! The new website and forum went live yesterday afternoon (PST afternoon).

One of the things that I have done is to redirect traffic from the old locations of the forum and the website to the new website. However, there are still many links out there on search engines that still point into these places. Anyone who tries to follow such a link to a forum posting will just end up at the top of the forum tree (but you can use the search box in the upper left corner to find things here, until the search engines catch up with this).

If you follow a link like that into the old website, you'll still get the old website. (But just going to the root of the old website will take you back here, to the new one.) I'm going to spend some time in the next few weeks creating "redirects" for specific pages on the old site, and pointing them over here.

If you have any saved Favorites/Bookmarks on the old site, can you reply here and let me know what they are? Thanks!

Eventually, when traffic dies down on the old site, I'm going to completely shut it down and remove it. (It will probably take 2-3 months.)

If you have any problems with the new site, please let me know. Just use the contact form and send it to Website Questions. I will try to be as responsive as I can.

Thanks, and I hope you enjoy the new site and forum!

Darryl -

Can you throw up some pictures in a generic gallery to show us what we can do with this new feature?

Thanks...Kurt in S.A.

Actually, I was hoping that someone else would get the ball rolling -- several someone elses, actually -- as there's a little feature I added to the website recently, that won't be in play until some people add a gallery or three.

Yeah, I think so, too. So, I blasted it and locked the account. Kind of odd, though; the guy registered the account almost 2 months ago and then only made the one post.
