New Server, New Look
We've moved to a new server. We timed
the move to correspond with our new look. The move will allow us
to add some cool features to the site. The first feature we've
added is a new discussion forum. We've had forums in the past but
they were always hosted on free services that either ran eye-boggling
ads or just packed up shop and left town with no warning. This forum is different.
It's not going anywhere. It's part of our web package. We
hope you'll find it easy and fun to join in.
