Subject: New Todd Board

At the top of the board is the link to the newly created Todd Board.

Please begin using this board IMMEDIATELY! Later today, I will have a link back to THIS board, but for READING PURPOSES ONLY!

All new postings should be placed on the new board, effective IMMEDIATELY!

The message format on this new board is also identical to InsidetheWeb, and I think you will be happy to know that there are NO limitations on the amount of TEXT in the Subject Line for replies..... yaaaaaay!

However.... there is one teensy little "problem" to deal with. When you click on a reply to respond to it, you will find that it is displayed in a HUGE font size! That appears to be a "bug" somewhere in this server, which I have reported to Tech Support. Perhaps they will get around to eventually correcting it, but if they do NOT, imo that is a VERY small price to pay to "trade off" for being able to post as long a reply as we WANT in the subject line. Also, this huge font is never actually displayed directly on the board and only appears that way when we're "inside the box" responding to a reply... so I think we can live with this, whether or not it's ever corrected by Tech Support.

All MAIN topics created on this board are automatically "hidden". The "Preview Post" option is also available with this server, along with a set of emoticons.

Let me also warn all posters here that should we run into any "serious" problems with this NEW board and end up having to move the ATB Boards once again, I am completely sure we will have NO other alternative but to go with one of those boards where we would have to "click to read" each post and reply! I have searched high and low and trust me when I say this is the ONLY other message board server out there that provides the "message tree format" for threading replies directly on the board.

Free message boards on the Net are quickly becoming a thing of the past.... due to low revenues generated from the ads/banners that appear on these boards, sponsored by the companies who PAY for these boards so they remain FREE for us to use. That is why ISW shutdown and apparently so are a lot of other message board servers. Therefore, it might help all of us to remember that clicking on some of these ads (sometimes) that appear on these boards might go a long way towards ensuring our being able to maintain these "free" forums for as long as possible.

Thanks!
