We finally finished the server move! You are now reading the bulletin board from the new server!

We are getting a little bleary eyed here (took a bit longer to iron out some kinks than we thought). Therefore, I've only done about 85% of the de-bugging I would normally do. Based on what I have done, everything seems to be working as it should and all archives are intact. However, I'll rely on you all to test it 100%

Please let me know if anything looks out of place or doesn't work as it used to. Everything is as it should be if you don't notice any difference at all.

Yes, we know the chat room is down. I'm not sure why that script isn't running and I'm just too darn tired to figure it out tonight. We'll get that back up as soon as possible. Our focus was on the bulletin board and getting that up ASAP.

Dear Laura

Thanks a lot for the time and work you invest in this website. Especially the BB is such a valuable tool to exchange experiences and information for us from all over the world. It sure has changed my life 'meeting' others with Ichthyosis on line. Thank you!

All the best,
Sofie

Thanks you guys, very much. You don't know how much it bothers me not to have everything immediately perfect. I didn't sleep well last night knowing that the chat room is down and that it will be a few days before I can even begin to work on it (I'm so busy at work right now). I get too hung up sometimes on "perfect." You're helping me put it in perspective.

I also put so much pressure on myself as it relates to the bulletin board. So many people have spent so much time posting good information, I would have just died if in moving servers we lost any information. So I've been very anxious about that, too. It's a relief to see that you all are able to log back into the bulletin board and everything seems to be working as it should.

Can you believe that Infopop, the company we bought this software from, would have charged us $600 to move the bulletin board to the new server?? I was almost going to just pay that (because I'm that anxious about preserving everything that's been posted over the years) but we just couldn't afford that. Hoi.

Having said, though, please don't hesitate to point out anything that doesn't seem to be operating like it should. But is sure is a relief to see that everything looks good.

But I'm still so anxious to get that chat script working and then get some other updates done to the website! LOL

Laura, you are amazing. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication to this board. I have met so many great people, I have had so many wonderful tips for my boys, and have met several moms to laugh with and to cry with. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! For everything.

Dear Laura,

I said it before and I will say it over and over again. Thanks to you and Chris that we had this wonderful site to learn a lot from. My son and I owe you for making easier to care for him. I was able to take care of him easily and he looks much better every time. All the credit goes to you and people who post with wonderful ideas everyday. Thank you very much for this to happen.
Solomon.

Dear Laura,
I've only been here a month or so but this place is great! I love knowing that people understand exactly what I have and don't get grossed out when I talk about it. Thanks so much and thanks to everyone else who helps! I really appreciate it
