New April `09 Site Design
 

Hey everybody, as you've undoubtedly noticed we've rolled out a new site design and revamped content section. If you have any questions or comments, please post here. Thanks!

When will the VIDEO section be setup, and what will it encompass?
Where is the market place on the forums? It has disappeared for me.

It's soooo purdy! :)

The new look is very nice! Well done to everyone, I know this must have taken a lot of hard work.

The new look is really nice and more importantly everything seems to be working fine. Good job guys, thanks again for what you do for all of us. Forums like these are an extremely valuable resource.

Today around 8:30 am local time, I responded to two different posts. One in the Sony EX-XDCAM forum and the second in the XDCAM-HD forum. Both threads in these forums have since disappeared. Very basic topics, nothing controversial. Then I noticed there was a time discrepancy of threads depending on whether I went directly to the a sub-forum or if went directly to the main forum and then to the sub-forum. The same sub-forum showed different threads depending on how I accessed them.

If the admins have censored the two threads, one relating to NAB P2/SxS memory and second to XDCAM Transfer tutorials ... well so be it. Otherwise, this board is not working consistently as it has in the past.

Currently I'm not getting email notifications and my posts are not showing up in New Posts.

Cheers.

We're still tweaking it and ironing out the bugs... thanks for your patience, and your feedback.

Instant email notification now works Chris. That was quick :)

Cheers.

Thank Jenn, not me (she's that person behind the curtain...).

Thanks Jenn, the last one came in so fast it nearly knocked me over.

Cheers.

I saw a similar problem.

My last post got deleted and than reappeared and right after someone commented on my post, it disappeared again along with the poster who quoted me.

What gives?

A.
A moderator cant make up their mind.

B.
A moderator decides to delete my post while another one found no problem with it and decided to make it reappear and when the original moderator saw that it came back, he deleted it again.

C.
It’s the bugs from the upgrade that’s being ironed out.

I think the answer is C, correct?

The answer is C. Some posts were trying to go where there was nowhere to go. It was a computer glitch, not a human one.

Unfortunately our recent server re-config left a bit of a bloody wake, but I think those issues are entirely smoothed out now.

Love the new site design...but one thing missing....
 

Like many others, I really like the new site design, but one big thing is missing for me.

I'm missing the list of other members on line.

It's subjective and not life threatening, I know, but seeing the names of others online when I log on has always given me a sense of being a part of a real community...and I for one miss it.

Just knowing that you are part of a great collection of fellow enthusiasts/professionals/hobbyists from all around the globe is kinda reassuring....particularly when you are struggling with one challenge or another and need a helping hand.

It's on the bottom of the home page now, rather than the top.
