    Hello everyone!

    We've upgraded our main website software this Christmas break. I spent a lot of time doing it, and I've worked out most of the bugs. However, I still haven't identified all of them, so I'm going to need your help. Please play with the system and comment on this article any problems you encounter.

    Please notice the new blogs, and the new forum features. This software upgrade brings us up to date with modern internet architecture as it's completely WEB 2.0. That means no more html tables - all CSS for you techie people.

    There are several things I need to do still....

    1) Bring back the conference room software.
    2) Reprogram the Bible software.
    3) Reprogram the Trinity Hymnal
    4) REDO the ENTIRE Library. I'll be merging it into this new CMS.

    I'm also thinking of dropping subscriptions and going to donation only support - where I would have a page that describes how much money we need for the year and how much we have to go to meet the goal.

    Anyway, everyone take care, 2010 is gonna be fun! Please comment here to support this new addition, test the functionality, and to report bugs / errors. Thanks!

      Brandan: Donations is a much better system. For "mobile" people like me, it is hard to keep up with subscriptions because I change bank accounts often, etc.

      Thanks!

      Well I've got some thinking to do on this. How do I deal with those who already have subscriptions? That's an answer I have to come up with....

      Brandan, the upgrade thus far looks great, thanks for all the work you put into the forum. This group of brothers and sisters have been a huge blessing to me for the last three or so years I've been here. The "donation" system sounds good also.

      As always bro you have done a genius job and I'm sure will only get better as the days go on. If it is a donation system that you want to change too I'm certainly more than willing for whatever is left on subscription to go towards that.

      Here is hoping that the New Year brings about continued discussion of the Gospel and our love for it shines forth.

      I have been clicking on everything that I can find. This new look is really growing on me. I like it. I'm looking foreword to a great new library and the Bible software when it is completed. I have been working with the costomization of my blog, but I have not found a way to customizing my profile. Are we able to?

      I have also noticed that the video on my last post on my blog is wider than the space of the blog, is this normal or is this one of those bugs?

      P-Net is looking GREAT!

      Thanks John! The videos are working the way they are supposed to. As for the customization of your profile, you should be able to do that and for some reason I can't figure out why it's not available. I'll continue to research the issue. In the meantime, I fixed a few bugs with thumbnails and avatars this morning.... This software while very nice is VERY TRICKY to configure properly - especially when upgrading databases that have been around since 2001. - B.

      Thanks for all your work here Brandan and other mod's. I have been reading much of the material posted and have enjoyed the way you guys make me think!!

      Thanks again and I love this new look. Maybe brighten up the Logo a bit :-) It took me a second glance to see "Predestinarian" ...

      After researching, I found that NO we cannot, but the functionality will be back. See this link for more information.
