    I am not sure it is all the site's fault. When I got home just now, I had difficulty getting on my laptop. chrome seemed in the way. It had taken out my few spots I visit and tried to get me on, not as a guest. But I out waited them or something because the opening page changed. Things are set up a bit differently but I am still a guest. My laptop has issues often when things are glitchy here; but, then again, I am a conspiracist.

    We all understand and truly appreciate your work on our behalf, Ken. I hate new technology so I totally get it. After spending so many years supporting computer crap that was obsolete overnight I am really tired of trying to keep up. I just want to click on the crap and have it work. Anyway, thanks so much for our little hangout. I feel like everyone here are friends and look forward to checking in every day.

    Performance is gonna be sporadic. Sometimes it's slow, sometimes it's OK, and other times I cannot even connect to the site. Eventually we'll move to another hosting service. In the meantime, I'm having dial-up flashbacks (minus the modem screech.)

    I think the idea was tossed around before, but Ken's most recent idea is to move to a dedicated server. I assume that means with the guys we've got.

    Yup. You cannot Save a pic to the server for now, but you can link them from a website. So if you really want to post it, you can use a hosting website and link your pic from there. There are lots of them out there. I use Imgur.com
