Site changes will cause temporary outages.

Folks, you probably have heard that we are changing to a better server here. We will be on what is called a "virtual dedicated server". This will give us more room, hopefully make the server faster, etc. With over 7,000 photos here, plus the Library and so many forum messages archived this site has gotten extremely big.

This is going to cause one or more temporary outages in the very near future, and one of these will not be short. We will try to give as much notice as possible, and indeed we have not told most site members yet. However, I thought that I should give you folks even better notice of this due to all that you have been through here.

We estimate the one long outage will be about 4 days, but it could be even longer. Of course, if it is finished before that time the site will be back earlier. But it is unlikely it will be much less. We are hoping that will be the only time it is out, but we cannot be sure.

So, we have some growing pains here but things will improve later. We do not know yet when this will take place, but it could be very soon. Please keep a watch on our "Info Forum" for details. I will try to remember to keep you informed here as well.

If you have any questions please give me a quick PM as I am not here often.

Thanks all
White Fox

Hi White, AK, folks,

many thanks for the information and a big sorry :cry: that we can't provide an emergency home for the Denizens.

Fuzzy greetings,
Joe Al

You may have noticed from our info forum that the outage has been delayed by 7 days due to some computer problems that AKcoyote had. It is now scheduled for next weekend. Again we hope to have things up and running in 2 to 4 days.

If everything works you will just enter and everything will look exactly the same. But, you will actually be on a brand new server.

Please keep watch in our Info Forum for more details as things progress.

Wool members...

Please do not forget that we will be off line for most of the weekend at best. If things do not go exactly as planned we could be well into next week before we return on a whole brand new server.

Please watch our "Info Forum" on this subject for further posts over the next few days.
