Thanks to Mica, Ron, Modder Dave and the Mods, and all who worked to update the club site. Can't wait to check out the improvement in our little corner of the world.
Bill, tgo

Hello everyone.
Thanks to all the Alembic forum upgrade project team for their efforts.
It all looks so good.

Looks great, thanx!
For some (me included) it will take some time to get used to the new format, but I'm sure it will fit like a glove in no time. Thanx to Adriaan for pointing me in the right direction!
I also loved the old board and I have to change the homepage of my browser for the first time since I got Internet (!) ;D
But so much more can be done in this format (at least in a easier more standardized way)
Goodbye old board and welcome new board :D

One request/suggestion, or maybe I missed it... But could a link to the main site be added to the main page?

Flip; I don't know if that's something we can do, but I've added it to the list of things we're still working on.

Cool! It's good to be back. Congrats to all involved in the upgrade.
-
Well, a hearty congratulations...to us ALL, by the way... for what already seems to be an absolutely excellent new forum. Can't wait to get an avatar going, and finally enjoy some great folks, again!!

I appreciate and understand the long time coming with the migration to a new platform.
A big thank you to whom ever had to pull their hair out taking on such a task.
:-D

Yay!

I got my first full-screen look at the new Clubhouse this morning... adding two thumbs up. Looks and works great on my usual mobile too.
-
It is great that the club is back!
For the first time in my life, I now truly understand what the term "cold turkey" means. After the original resurrection date passed, I lost count of how many time a day I checked in to see if the site was up once again.
-
ME, TOO!! :)
-
I just wanted to see if my avatar looked ok!
-
Great job! I love how seamless the transition with the continuity with the old version. So many times when boards like this go through a major upgrade, much useful information is lost.
It's great to be back!
-
Wow!!!!!
I never thought I'd see the day!

Yeah, this was the part that was the hardest! Most of the time I see people just lock the old board and start a new one and say, "look at the old site for the archives" but what happened yesterday is not an archive, and the flow of conversations gets all messed up. It was really important for me to bring the whole club over and keep it intact. All of the Alembic Club members have worked for many years to make this place as nice as it is, and we needed to honor all that effort.
We did wind up hiring a developer with experience migrating Discusware forums. But we presented him with some new problems to overcome. Ralph has been professional and worked very late nights to get this ship sailing. So if you run across someone with a Discusware board that wants to migrate, have them contact me for a recommendation.
There are still a few wrinkles to iron out, but most of it is stuff you probably won't notice as we go along checking off one or two a day. If something more major is changed we'll let you know what's going on.

Got to check it off the list today, Flip. Upper right corner, baby!
P.S. We noticed 2 or 3 messages disappear from this page when we ran a utility. We weren't able to recover them, sorry. Hopefully won't happen again, but we're still getting the hang of the new forum too.
