Well, this is only about 1/3 of the move.  I'm going to give the new installation a few days to make sure it's working, and then I'm going to back it up and kill it.  Then I'll restore the database to another SMF installation running as a component under Amaz0ns.  Everyone's user logins will carry over and will function at Amaz0ns.  (If you haven't already created a login at Amaz0ns, please don't, because I'm not sure what will happen to the duplicates and I'd prefer to have as few to fix manually as possible.) So people will have the ability to use the chat room (already installed), make use of the SMF calendar that will be integrated into Amaz0ns, and I'll be able to give authoring permissions to the story writers here, too. 

I also have the bandwidth available at Amaz0ns to permit file uploads.  What I have in mind for the file uploads is that images will remain on the server for about a month, but that we could come up with some kind of jury system to so that the most highly regarded material could be moved to a kind of "keeper" gallery.  That won't be available right off the bat, though.

I have a lot of work to do but it's definitely coming along.

Oh, one last thing - I'm not sure yet but I think I might be able to include a spell-checker feature once the whole thing is moved over to the new Webhost.  Which will be nice.

Oh, one more thing - once we move to the Amaz0ns.com server, you'll be able to access the forum both through the main Amaz0ns interface or separately, like you do now.  I might - might - even set up shegrew.com to serve as a "wrapper" site to the forum, so people who still wanted to use that URL would be able to.  If I put some text ads across the top of the wrapper frame it  would probably just about pay for itself.

Of course I'll be adding more message boards to serve the broader readership at Amaz0ns.  Interesting times.  Wearing me out, though.

The Pimp has made the transfer and have experience no problems as yet. Any faults or problems will be listed and reported in the "Leaders Board" thread.
Good luck with all that is to come, dear Lingster.
Peace

Appearance-wise, it's looking mighty fine![/size][/i][/b]

I've already posted a new pair of SH Collages to the "Other Art" section - the new sub-features are wonderful!

Congrats on the successful move . . . and if I encounter any problems, rest assured you'll be the first to know.   :wink:

Hey, guys, I think I discovered a hiccup in the system.

I remember putting in links to my chapters of Power Play and to Dr. Otto's picture Cats and Dogs when linking it to The Stray.  But when I clicked on these links, I got the old www.shegrew.com addy to them, and the old format board saying, "This board is currently unavailable, please try again later."  Will I have to backtrack and correct them so they say "http://shegrew.com/smf" whatever so all teh links are valid?
