Hi everyone,
I haven't been posting much as I have been very busy with getting this site to look how I want it.
I want to thank all the new members, as well as the members from the old site who have joined again, for the kind messages of support especially with the comments about the choice of this new site. We now have a permanently larger team of Administrators to help keep the site running smoothly, and I would especially like to thank Ron for finding and setting up this site for me, and Kevin for archiving all the useful content from the old site. The site was chosen because it costs nothing to run apart from our time. We could pay for it to get rid of the ad at the top of the screen but I am very pleased to see that the ad is usually about guitar related items. It was always my intention to keep the site free of costs to members and if it was not possible to do that, there would not have been a new site.
The new search function will make it very easy to find anything from the archived files as well as from any newer messages. Don't use the Google search at the bottom for searching this site, I tried it and it didn't work, maybe later it will work better but not for the moment. Instead, you will find the site's own search function near the top of the page where it says home help and search members
I am excited about the facility to link to YouTube videos in a message and having the YouTube screen inside the message instead of having to leave the site to watch it. To link to a YouTube video, just click on the Tube box in the Add Tags section and paste the video URL between the two sets of brackets that appear in the message that you are typing.
Any questions about the site may be answered by looking in the reference sections and if you don't get the answer you are looking for then post a message with your question.
We already have more than 250 members after only around 4 days of starting the site and I look forward to seeing the list grow with more members than ever.
Regards,
Charlie
