I just discovered the forum has returned, and realized how much I had missed it the past week. We probably all take the forum for granted, but I want to thank Pekka and any others who participate in running it. Your efforts are truly appreciated.

Hallelujah.

I'm going to have to dig into the new format, but it certainly looks like we're back in business.

Man it's great that this is back. It has been awfully quiet without it.

Hi
Its good that this forum is back. I hope the Administrator makes the BROWN color theme for this new software. It was really cool to the eyes and was very familiar.
Also the old Icons were more COOL.
regards
leo.

Yes I will have couple of themes you can choose, later. Right now I'm a but tired after staying up til 4am every night for installing and securing the server (I have a day job, too :) )...

I sort of like this color sceme - some changes are needed but generally it is quite nice. http://photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif

Let me echo everyone else in being glad you made it back, Pekka. Hopefully you will find this software a bit more secure. We use it over on Zuga.net and other than a few incidences, haven't had too many problems in the last couple of years.

Glad you are back.

Pekka, thanks much for your hard work. Now I hope the idiots that caused the problems are going to get theirs................

OBTW, I noticed that the signature and profile related to my userid was not mine. No big deal, I reentered it.

Have Fun,

Don't forget to double check your profile (go to UserCP) and make the changes if necessary in the different settings. Mine was not mine and said I lived in MD rather than OR. BIG difference. http://photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif

Also noticed that I couldnt use the [IMG] tags to post photos :(.

New layout is awesome however, just will take time to get used to.

You can use and see IMG tags, just enable them on in your profile.

Pekka,

Have you seen the mismatch with the signatures?

I re-entered mine, but it looks like most others are incorrect.

Have Fun,

Have Fun, I did not notice earlier, but those things are possible after database conversion. Everyone should go into their User CP and correct mistakes.

Thanks so much Pekka for bringing the forum back online!!!! I sure have missed it this last week and so far I don't mind the new format.

Yes, my signature and profile had been changed also. That's OK, it is probably some new fangled security trick. Also, the Time Zone feature could not be selected correctly.

It's nice to have the forum back.

Of course, earlier today when it was still down my 10D went "err99" and I couldn't come to the forum to see what folks did to fix it. All is ok now.

Like the song goes...."You don't know what you've got till it's gone", I've really missed this place. I underestimated how much I look for information here and how much it becomes part of my normal day. I don't post as much as many of you but I wanted to say thanks for getting the site back up Pekka and all the others that moderate etc...

Yea! We're back. http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif http://www.photography-on-the.net/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif

I was away yesterday and did not get a chance to check the forum to see if it was back up.

Different look, different feel, same great people. :lol:

Many thank Pekka for your countless hours to bring the forum back. I really missed it and appreciate all your efforts to resolve the problems with the old software.

Sooo glad it's back. Pekka, next time take up a collection from the members to get the work done. It'd certainly be cheaper for me! I accidentally ordered a 24-70 L and a 580EX while trembling with withdrawal. That's not to mention the hard time I had believing some of the contributions I was seeing at another forum. Glad to be back with people who know what's going on!
