Tomorrow I am going to shift the DNS to the new website. I am going to need to shut down the forums for probably right around 12 hours and it will be in the middle of the day most likely. It takes about that long to move all the posts and images even on a T1 to T1 connection. Just a couple of heads ups:
1.) I killed the imageFolio software and replaced it. Now netscape navigator users should be able to upload. The new software is PHP based and will run faster. Your old linkages (avatars) and so on will still be good for at least the next six months, however free.***boat.net will not be used any more.
2.) None of your book marks will work any more. Sorry, but we needed some orginization.
3.) The bikini archive, photo report, manufacture showcase and hot boat cove updates are in the new site.
4.) http://www.iespell.com Check this link out. Very useful.

The forums will be down for 12 hours in the middle of the day?! Sounds like a lot of us are going to have productive days tomorrow. :rolleyes: :D

That is Awesome news,
Is there any way that a calendar could be set up with all of the events going on for the So Cal area that could be viewed on this site?
It should be set up like the one on Kwicherbichen's site.
web page (http://kwicherbichens.com/mb/index.php?s=5d87da02208e1618abe6b96fd3dcade5&act=calendar)
This would be a great addition to the site. Just my .02

Badboat1 I just wanted to make sure I knew the new web address before it goes down and changes are made. :)

The web address will still be the same for now http://www.***boat.net, however some folders have changed. For instance the galleries used to be located at http://free.***boat.net/cgi-bin/imageFolio.cgi now they will be at http://www.***boat.net/image_center/index.php
forums will be at http://www.***boat.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi instead of http://free.***boat.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi.
We will have a calendar function coming out soon, but it will not be in the inital launch.

Question: if the old website won't work what is the new website address? To clarify one more time. Tommorow if you want to visit the site after probably around 5pm just type in http://www.***boat.net if you see the old site then wait a while, DNS will catch up soon.

See, I seem to focus all my attention here mainly because, this forum alone takes up a lot of my time.
I couldn't imagine multi-posting on several different forums and be able to keep up with it all.
Know what I mean, eh???
However, from what I hear, other forums are not as *policed* if you will.
Do you guys think forums that are less *moderated* are more liberating to post at?
So if you HAD to pick some of your favorite forums...in order....what would they be and why?
Just curious. (It's the cat in me!) :p

In terms of what and in regards to what?
Just joshing.
From the posts I have read of yours, you should be alright anywhere.
Dress it down a little bit for Havasu Barney though.
That site is on my favorites!

There was a problem with the cookies fighting with each other. I changed the location of the fourms to http://forums.***boat.net. You can still get to them at http://www.***boat.net, all I did was map the IIS to a different default file. The difference is when you go through forums.***boat.net you will not need to sign in every time. The buttons on the home and features page of the site have been updated to reflect this.
