Well here it is. Pour yourself a drink, LOG-IN and look around. It takes a while to get used to it. Navigation is much easier. I don't consider the colors to be set in stone quite yet.

Logged back on and I NEED that drink.
Wasn't sure I remembered my sign in info, but here I am. Congrats, I'll go have that beer now.
Wow, hopefully nothing is set in stone!
Its not set in stone Julian.
We were able to set-up the home page art work prior to the migration. I was able to place the old forum and new forum side by side on my computer screen, and set them up to look as close to identical as possible. That was the easy task.
But the various forum pages weren't viewable in their finished state until after the data was migrated from the old forums. However once the data is migrated the new forums have to go live, we couldn't go back to using the old forums while I finished "tweaking" the art work of the new forums, because the old forums would collect additional "un-migrated data".
So the final appearance of the forum pages has to be sorted-out with the forums live. The old forums are no longer available to use as a comparison ... but that's not much of a drawback because the lay-out is different. But the software is all new so I have to go through the process of determining what changes what.
We went through this back in 2006. I promise we'll sort it out again. I'm the biggest problem slowing the process down.
I have member profile/registration particulars to sort out too.

Mic I've added the emoji (Social Strata calls them graemlins) with sunglasses
Great job George. Just being able to attach photos without having to resize is worth it.

No Mic, we've had no representative list for many years. Today members just post an inquiry asking for help in their area of the world.

Well I'm living with it.. can't say I care much for the format and display honestly. I was looking through and old thread and there is not way to scroll through pages other than one by one consecutively, can that be fixed to jump to any page?
George good work, and I know what so called "migration" means, did work 30 years in SW Technologies..
Ref to Joules's comment just above, I would be nice to make the text window (this window) wider so more text per page to see, reduces some scrolling though as well
TX again for the nice work..

I believe the pages are actually listed, you just can't see them because the lettering is black over a black background. In other words its just an artwork issue … back in my lap.
Change is always hard and we often avoid change in order to keep our lives simple - not a particularly laudatory state of affairs. Kudos to you and Debbie for all your hard work. Adapt, innovate, overcome!
