Welcome to the new and improved (?) NTOWS

[Rich Stern]

Hello, all.



Still working on some of the transfer issues, so you may see some bugs here and there. A few features are not yet implemented (no library uploads, a couple of other misc. items). Please bear with me as I get this squared away.

Hello,,,hello,,,hello..........is there anybody in here ???????????? Can anyone hear me ?????? Is there anyone at all..............

 

[Larry Harp]

Looks like you may have to update your preferances and re-set it. I did anyway.

 

[Rich Stern]

The preferences may be ok once the new server is directly reached via "nitroowners.com". Right now, the old server is still forwarding some folks to the new server, and that may interfere with cookies.

On some of the post the words are running off the right side of the screen. How do you scroll right to read the rest of the sentence. I no longer have a scroll bar at the bottom of the screen as I had before. Therefore, I cannot figure out how to to read what is running off the right side of the screen.



Thanks

 

[Rich Stern]

RM58, I think I've got that fixed now. Let me know if it's looking better.

 

[Randy McFall]

Thanks Rich, seems to be working fine now.

[Rich Stern]

Glad everyone approves of the changes so far. The goal wasn't so much a new look-and-feel, as much as moving the site to an environment that would allow future improvements.



Just FYI, regarding some features:



- Chat is missing in action, and will be for a while.



- Member libraries are "read only" at the moment. I hope to have the upload and other library features working shortly.



- The board search feature is only partially functional.



- The archived board records are currently unavailable.

 

[Bruce Moore]

Good job Rich. Trepster's gonna think that the Chinese government has hijacked the site.:lol:

Looks great Rich

 

[William H. (Bill) Barham]

I'm an old curmudgeon who just hates change at this time in my life. When I first saw what you were doing I said, "OhOh," but must now confess this looks and feels very nice.

I assume you're taking suggestions?? Is there any way to place the doorway to the Memorial Page somewhere else? Maybe on the main toolbar? Somehow, to me anyway, having it grouped in with "Tails from the Trail" and "Fishing Reports" doesn't feel right??

Maybe to the right of "Members"?

Anyway, the site really looks great and my fear of change has been allayed.



Uncle Billy

 

[Rich Stern]

Billy, menu space at the top is at a premium. As poignant as the memorial page is, it's not the kind of link that needs to be accessed on a regular basis from the site's main menu.



Over time, I'll be doing some additional reorganization. The "More" area was just my catch all for not losing stuff that had a place on the old site format.

 

[William H. (Bill) Barham]

... It was really unnerving for me to even ask <shew>. You created the Memorial site and did such a great job on it I didn't want it to "get lost in the shuffle", if you know what I mean. I agree that site I mentioned isn't appropriate and I trust you to place it where it's not lost and can be easily seen. And trust me, I don't mean to be pushy about it! I just didn't want to say nothing and then have it forgotten about..

Thanks Rich! And thanks for the new look!!



Uncle Billy

 

[Greg Meyer]

Rich,



The site is shaping up real nice...



The "contact Us" failed with a vb script error... No hurry on what I was trying to send but I know you will want to know about the bad link... failed script error.



Here is what I was sendng; "Rich,



COuld you drop "The NorthShore Bass Anglers from the clubs area and add "The Northern Illinois Walleye Club" www.thewalleyeclub.com" Thanks.

 

[Christopher Laurencio]

Looks good, maybe now I can get in form work since it is called a forum vs the old format that said message board

 

[TrepMan]

Rich - The WWW is still World Wide and I can access it from Shanghai!!!



One question, where did the links to your other sites go (guns and bullets, sportrak, pontoons...)??



Trep

 

[Kraig Clement]

looks Great!

 

[Rich Stern]

Trep, I've shut down the other sites, except the Sport Trac site. Too much effort invested for too little traffic.
