New Boat Buzz

Post by mattbyrne » Mon Apr 08, 2013 6:39 pm

By now you have noticed a big change to the Boat Buzz. We have upgraded the software that runs the Boat Buzz and gave it a new look and feel. I hope you like it. You should find most everything in the same as before place but a few things have moved.

This is a major step for us, it will enable new functionality down the road.

We have done are best to make this a seamless as possible, but with anything that involves a computer we may a glitch or 2. If you see something wrong or are having trouble, please email [email protected] and we'll look into it.

Now who is going to be the first to post on the new Boat Buzz.......

Ok, as a computer challanged senior...I am learning to live with this and sure it will prove beneficial.

In checking around I have a question or two for the leaders and/or members...:

No where on here does my actual name, John Rothert, appear....it did in the old format...when you went to the members part?

I would like to own up to my postings so where do I post my name? Did not see that under profile either?

How eactly do you simply start a new topic?

thanks for all the hard work evident in the new site....

John in Va.

The login doesn't seem to work from the CCABC home page, but works if you go to Boat Buzz and then log in.

The lack of racey ads with uploaded pictures is a nice benefit, plus it seems to go to full size with one click as well.

Pic test: it seems the file size restrictions are lower than a certain other wood boat web site.

We can change that no problem. I've done that on the Riva Forum.

Will do
