Issues with Hydroracer

[modracer7b]

I like the screamandfly better. Actually it is similar to BRF and they both have a recent post section similar to your portal view, it just looks different, but does list the most recent posts in the "New posts or Whats new section" like your portal view. I don't know if this could altered to be like your current portal view. The real difference in HR and BRF is the content. Your site is more current events, while Ron's site is more of a historical view. I visit HR to see what is going on and BRF to see what used to be.

PS I hate change as much as anyone, but you have to do what is necessary for HR. We will get used to it.

No Pictures

Pictures are not showing on posts.

Dean, Please refer to the thread on missing pictures. We know they are missing unfortunately there is nothing we can do about it https://hydroracer.net/forums/showthr...threadid=27434

Thanks Bill for your understanding, I know we will all get used to a change. I am working making it happen as we speak. It will take me a little while but hopefully a rebranding will be a fun thing for everyone. I know you can please some of the people some of the time and all of the people none of the time so we will have to just see how she goes.

I think Dan L is correct we will just have to rip off the bandaid and be done with it. Once we have accomplished that anyone who can should repost their pictures. Some I know can never be replaced but what is done is done. Sadly.....

Mike and Teresa, both of those formats would be fine with me. I kind of like the Scream and Fly a little bit more because it has the latest posts button, kind of like coming here through the portal. Do what is best for you, you are the guys running it.

Thanks Karl, we will really try to make it as good or better than it is now, might just take us all a little while to adapt to change, sometimes I hate change which is why I haven't done this sooner.

Some pictures (those 12/19/2012 and prior) have been retrieved. Unfortunately from then until last evening seem to be gone forever. But I figured something is better than nothing. A new look for the site will be forthcoming, new software has been purchased!

I like Powerboat Nation best, maybe you could add a portal page or newest post list to it. The layout and colors stand out and are more eye catching than most of the other sites.

Must be all the girl pictures

just a reminder

Mike and Theresa, I thought this might be a good time to remind you both how much we appreciate all you do. This site is the life's blood for our sport. I know it is a real headache for you right now so a big, big thanks to you both.

We will adapt to whatever changes are necessary.

Dennis I think everyone will like it.. Teresa showed me what she is working on and it will be a lot like now but it will also have more capabilities which we will keep as a surprise and it is also set up by us so we will know all the ins and outs.. It will not be so much of a target for hackers.. Plus we will have a good back up system but of coarse it is spendy but nothing is for free anymore.. Now that the new system has been played with Teresa says we should of done this sooner.. Live and learn right

We really think this is a great site for new folks that want to get started and it is also a great place for venting.. Sometimes it gets a little heated but folks have a way of calming down and reining others back in.. There is so much info on this site we don't want to lose anymore.. We are sorry about the 2013 picture loss but it was my worse year in racing so I would just as soon forget it..

Can't access Inbox messages, most of the time. It shows MY message, but when I click on "show more," most of the time it still just show my message, not the answer. It did work once. But mostly, Inbox is the same as Sent Messages. Yes, I was logged-in at the time.

Also, everything on the site is very slow loading.

Please, consider these as observations, as "letting you know," and NOT as complaining. This changeover has to be a real pain for you, and I am too clueless about computers to have any concept of the issues involved.

Thanks.

When you get "See More", you're not in the Inbox, you're on the messages preview page. Click 'Inbox' on the left hand sidebar to get to your actual inbox.

The problem with the upgrade Dan is then our site will lose its home page and look like everyone else.. I don't want the site to look like Boatracing Facts.. Then no one will use it.. yuk

Just reading backwards to this.....I hope everyone feels the site has retained it's look and feel, and does not look like just so many other stes.
