Upgrade Downtime

[Gary_in_Indiana]

<font color="blue"> Speaking of the number of posts. You should talk. You're over 2,000!! </font>

Yeah, that's true... But, I bet if you went through mine you'd find that well over half of them would be me asking a question or asking for further explanation or elaboration on an answer to one of my questions.

Every once in a while someone asks something I happen to know something about, but most of my posts are my trying to learn.

I'm always amazed at people like Bird, John Miller III and many others who are just incredible wealths of information and so incredibly generous with it and patient beyond words with folks like me who sometimes need it explained three or four different ways (often with pictures and diagrams) before I 'get it.'

I've said it before and I'll say it again here. TBN is a perfect example of what I always thought the Internet could be. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Couldn't agree with you more! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Well, I could. But it wouldn't make any difference! /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Muhammad and all at TBN,

I like the new look. I poked around a while and it is nice. What I really like is the fact that I am at 28.8 dialup here at home and the text just rockets in here very fast now. Only a second or two slower than our high speed connection at work. Once the graphics are cached, the entire page loads in a very short time. Keep up the great work and thanks! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Muhammad,

Another site I frequent - Geocaching.com - has a Premium membership option that gives those members certain extra features, but is basically supported because the members love the site.

I'll bet they're even making a profit! /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Hi Chris...

That's exactly what we're looking for...

I want to see the answer... BEFORE the question is posted... /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

(certainly, Ibrahim can do that! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif)
