| | Back Up FINALLY! Sorry they had to take the forum down over the past weekend. As I understand it they finally moved to a larger and better managed hosting company.
This move will allow them to better run this forum and to continue to expand and grow it for everyone's benefit.
I didn't know what to do with all my spare time over the weekend when I couldn't come here. But its up and running now

| | I suggest e-mailing the new link to members, if possible, to replace the one saved in IE Favorites. I'm not sure how many are adept at finding the new link.

| | I see next to no activity on the forum, the new hosting company should have provided a click-on link to the new server. Tbone is right, most will have link in "Favorites" and will get a "page cannot be found" message. This is where the new host should have provided a link and/or directions to new server.
I also see that "forum member photos" will not display and "classifieds" will not display and if you go to the home page and click on "SNAPS" at the bottom right hand side, you'll see that "SNAPS" is still linked to the old server.
With no activity out here I'd say most probably think it's still down or like Tbone says, may not be able to sort out the new link.

| | Mike (Admin) has been working hard last week and again over the weekend to help move this site over to our new server and it was not easy or fun.
I'd like to congratulate him on this feat and thank him for all the hard work.
If there were a few glitches I am sure he'd want to know about them to help sort them out for us. |

| | If my post sounded like a slam it wasn't meant to be, was just trying to point out some things I found so they could be corrected. I'm sure admin wants things at 100%, wasn't sure who/how to contact so, emailed AIMag and posted here.
Went thru 3-server upgrades were I work, head of our IT Dept. was a friend of mine so I know how involved it is and some minor glitches are pretty much unavoidable.

| | My only clue to getting here was the last line (in italics) on the "Not Found" page that simpley reads "web server at aimag.com"
Yeah,and, I must have seen it (w/o it registering in my head)at least a dozen times before I even THUNK to give that a shot.
For now,could'nt at least one more word be added to that to make it clearer like:
"Try web server at aimag.com" ??
