Massive thanks to Marcel, who was up all night getting it all sorted.

And a big raspberry to the person who tried to take it all away.

Bear with us while we mess around, a few little things here and there will change as we go, but mainly, We're Back!

smilies were a sore point, we have them all revamped shortly, try and keep the same styles this time though!

There may be a few broke things here and there, if you can point out anything thats not working right we will get on it as soon as we can:thumb:

Im so very glad to see you guys back, as complete noob I havent had much to contribute to the site but you still made me feel at home here.
While you were 'away' I took delivery of my new Canon 5D & had no-one to get excited with me about it.:woot:
Look out for my bloopers guys ... there will be many!

Glad the forum is back. While I'm only a new guy, I was mystified the last few days as to where the forum went. Thank you for the email, and thank you for carrying on. I wasnt aware there were storms brewing around here, glad its all worked out.


Happy shooting ladies and gents.

I've made my feelings known in Arkady's thread but I'll say it again here...bloody well done team :thumbs:

The only downside is that I was included in the mailing list so I'm afraid I am back too.

I've just been told that some of my shots used on a website last year (unrelated to my recent coup) are to be used on printed promotional material and I had no one to brag about it to.

OK...I'm off to explore the new smileys :nuts:

matty
26-04-2006, 19:57
not really a Coup, more of a 'well if you dont want me to play im taking my ball back....' so we had to get back on our feet for you guys.. We are all REALLY pleased to see so many of you come with us, it means a great deal. I would also like to thank all those who have emailed and PMd the team offering support and encouragement, and yes, your all right, he is!

matty
26-04-2006, 19:58

I'll second that!

Despite what has happened. This site that we all enjoy and call our 'home', is what it is because of all the hard work you guys put into it. 'Missing body' as well. It's a great bunch here, it's a shame he just didn't see that.

Moving forward and all that though,lol

Cheers,

Jewel :)

Congrats guys. I can't imagine how hard its been trying to get things sorted. I'm really surprised at what happened but I guess I shouldn't be based on past events. Ah well. Onwards, to bigger and better things.

:thumbs:

Nah he had a valid excuse, a job. I don't. I'm a house husband :D
It's all Milk Tray and Trisha for me...lol

Seriously though we all pulled a team effort. Matty had to go to bed, work the next morning, and I was supposed to be only tinkering with the database, and trying to get it sorted. It ended up I just couldnt leave the thing alone, and stayed up until 5am tinkering so we could open th forums sooner than we had thought possible.

It turns out, when the server has taken all your gazillions of SQL instructions via PHP with not one error, then you get something else done, then something else....the thing becomes bloody addictive!..lol


Seriously though, I can only take credit for the buttons I pressed. We'e all pulled our weight and we're a team, it wouldn't be right to take any personal credit :)

matty
27-04-2006, 21:27
