There is still some cleaning up to do but I don't want to make a task of it for anyone. If any threads that don't make sense are seen, it is probably because of posts having been deleted so if members see a post that could do with some attention, please post a message in the general thread saying which board the thread is in and the name of the thread. I would be tempted to delete some of the ones I have already seen but they do contain useful info, albeit messy, and I'm not sure what to do with them. I have already deleted some smaller ones and will look for some more that need attention when I have the time. Regards, Charlie

Peter, What do you want to do with your dead avatar? Edited to add: It won't display on my computer, maybe it does on some others. All I see is a red cross in a square.

I have just pasted your avatar link in IE7 and it couldn't display the page.

Hi Charlie & All,
With regard to cleaning up threads/posts may I suggest that members copy what they need and after a suitable time (Charlie) delete what ever you see as unnecessary.
Maybe have a thread dedicated to this purpose so that you could indicate on it which you had in mind to delete and make members aware of your plans so they could salvage what they required from it.
Regards, Tim.

Hi Tim, I was thinking more in terms of repairing otherwise good threads rather than deleting them. But I think your suggestion about asking members first is a good idea. It depends what I come across anyway so we'll see what happens. Regards, Charlie

Hi Charlie,
Looks like normal service has resumed. Well done. I know we (The members) are more than a serial number on a piece of kit. No need to respond to that!
Regards, Tim.

Hi Tim, I just looked at the earliest 5 or so threads in the General Board. They look OK but it annoys me now to see others addressing a certain person's name when there are no posts from that person. I'm probably being too fussy though. I'm going to have to leave now as I have to get on with some work. We can continue tomorrow or whenever. Regards, Charlie

Hi Spike and Tim, Thanks. George has asked me if I would like it changed to be in the Global heading instead of the main title box so I asked him to move it. Regards, Charlie

How about a seasonal banner?

Post by Charlie Hall on Dec 16, 2008 15:07:33 GMT
Hi Barry, A nice idea. Although it doesn't have a transparent background I have used your banner as it's only for a couple of weeks or so. I also used the same URL and hope it's OK with you without asking first. Regards, Charlie

Hi Charlie
Celebration time indeed Charlie, and whats more it's nearly Christmas Lol, being an avid viewer but not a frequent poster I would just like to say how good it is to have the old forum back and the right man back at the helm.
Wishing you and all members a very happy Christmas and a very Prosperous New Year.
Martin

Thanks for the comments about the logo. It didn't last long though as it has been replaced temporarily by the great looking Christmas theme one by Barry H. Unless someone comes up with a better one than mine it will be back in the new year. Good to hear so many positive comments about the site now too. Mike, have I guessed right as to who that is? OMG. Brian, I used the pinky but it was more difficult to control. It also affected my coordination between the left and right hands, if that makes sense. The numbness is gradually wearing off. Yesterday evening it felt more like arthritis might (I don't know if I am beginning to suffer that or not) than numbness, but it's temporarily changed back, but better than it was before. Regards, Charlie

Charlie,
No problem with using the URL for the banner, I'll try and sort the transparent background out for you.
I think it look better as you have it now, top of the page and centred.
Cheers Barry

Hi Barry H, Thank you for the new background version. I've just made the change (not sure if someone had already done it just before me though as the link appeared to be the same when I pasted the new one in!) Regards, Charlie
