What do you think of the new forum

Bill, spam is a huge problem for us. The old forum had about 18,000 spam users that were auto-added by spam bots. Very insecure.
This new verification process is tough at first, but then after 3 posts in the forum some of them go away. As we proceed and technology gets better we may loosen the process a bit.

Got on and registered back in Apr and then have had major problems trying to get back on. Thanx to help from the "Head Shed" I seem to have gotten around that problem. I found that my old book mark was no good so had to go on the net and get back in that way. I now have the new site bookmarked so hopefully no more problems.
I like the new site. It seem to be good and "airy and bright". Still got a bit of getting used to, but I like it!
So far I don't see many of the regulars from the old site here. Where the heck are they?
To bad our post count and original date of sign up don't transfer over from the old site. Now everyone is a newby.
Is the old site going to be available indefinately? If not are our photo archeives going to be saved? That was sometime good reference to be able to go look at photos that had been previously filed there. I don't see a similar place on the new site.
