New Site in the works ...I've recently boughtwww.cherryblossomsfalling.com My friend is in the process of helping me set up the site. Things should be much more configurable and easier to understand. I hope everyone is having a good Summer. Take care, Laz |

Wow! That's great, Laz! What can expect on the site? Would it have its own forums and stuff? Gimme something I can chew on! |
| Junpei |
Finally, a start on your new site, nice. For me, I'm happy just being able to access this forum.
Your forgot about us Laz, we're having our winter down here.

| Nick |
Ha, yeah. I forgot with the heater on full ball and a huge jacket on  I have to go pick up pizza in like 10mins so I'll have to brave the elements. How good is ordering online!!!

Is it that cold up there? Since you're closer to the equator, I thought you'll have a slightly warmer temperature... maybe I'm wrong? It's usually 12-18 degrees here, plus these past few days it has been raining a bit.
Strangely I find whenever it rains I never feel cold, as though the rain itself brings with it warmth. It's true. It's the grey, windy days that has the chill. Sorry for being so random but what flavour pizza? I haven't eaten any for months.

Ah... just finished it. Got chicken monaco, the "70's lot", and a hawaiian for the little brothers.
It's pretty cold yeah, but I doubt it's any colder than where you are. Maybe I'm just feeling it more. It's when your clothes and shoes and socks get wet and you walk around all day damp that you start to loath it. I actually like winter the most out of the seasons, but I swear this one is colder than usual... |
| Laz |
Ha ha ha ... Sorry Junpei. And I should know better with my sister and her family living in NZ.
I hope all of you in the Southern Hemisphere are having a good and warm Winter

The new site will be more configurable ... It will be a PHP BBD hosted on a friends server - it won't be through a third part service, like the current board. I should be able to export all the data from this site and load it into the new site. There will definitely be the Forums and probably a spot for blogging as well. Hopefully I'll have a bit of a demo in the next week or two.
Thanks to all of you for your support and contribution to these Forums! Laz |

Wow,we look forward to it .en. |

New Announcement** RETRACTION ****HA HA HA ... ok ... so upon further analysis we most likely AREN'T going to be switching over to a new site. I'm going to set up the URL I bought to point to this site. You're going to see a few changes occurring over the next week or two, so please bear with me as I get things modified. Feel free to let me know what you do or do not like. Also, let me know if you have any suggestions for the site. Thanks again! Laz |
| Nick |
Er... what?! |
| Junpei |
Ahh, we were looking forward to the new site.
I would say the Popular Posts and Recent Posts bar on the left side need to be removed as it looks out of place. Maybe have it on the main page if possible. |
| Janny |
I agree with Junpei on this one. I used to visit another forum where the recent post bar was set only on the bottom of the main page and was pretty handy.
Still, I don't mean to complain, I know you're pretty busy now, Laz. |
| Laz |
No worries folks ... my friend and I are in the process of making modifications here when we (he) has the time ... so we'll definitely take any and all suggestions.
Also ... if you see something on another site that you like and would suggest for this one, please include a link to that other site. Thanks folks .. bear with us as we make some mods
Thanks, Laz |
