Regarding the mail, I'm not sure if you saw my message about that within the PM, but it switched to having the sender's name as 'Sean' late last night, as opposed to the expected "PHOTRIO" as sender I was receiving yesterday morning.

By the way, my bookmarks now redirect perfectly (the handful I've tried thus far, anyway). .... I've just moved, mid-typing, from my phone to my computer and tried to replicate the glitch I got, and couldn't do it. When I tried on my phone, it was re-directing before I could jump in and stop it on the APUG Error message screen. I hope you can make sense of that. I think what I'm trying to say is that now it "just plain works"!

Looking wonderful, congratulations Sean and many thanks to the support test team.

Molli, will have to get you some hot chocolate to celebrate with, goes well with some scotch dribbled in; they tell me.

Good morning, Mick. It's been forever! We need to have an Australian muster and, given that I've got the fire lit this morning and can't see myself budging for the foreseeable future, I vote we drag everyone down to my place for coffee/chocolate and a chat... it's too damn cold and windy for a photo expedition. Bring prints, though!

Sean, I'll keep checking bookmarks and Google results and I'll let you know if I run into any other misdirects. You know, of course, that 'operator error' may well have played a part a little while ago, yes? Oh, also, with notifications, the red 'NEW' and 'ALERT' heads up icons work perfectly still, as does the subtle pop up notification off to the left side of the screen. Just thought you'd like to hear about what DOES work, too!

I have now looked at several pics as attachments in posts and in the gallery and I am convinced that since the migration the clarity and resolution I see is on a higher level. I cannot believe my eyesight has improved in say 5 days and I have made no changes to my VDU.

The pics were OK before but now look great. Thanks, Sean

This mail routing issue is frustrating, hope to have it fixed soon. Thanks for the testing Molli. It's a blanket redirect so should basically auto convert anything apug.org to photrio.com

Sean:

You and Clement have done a spectacular job in merging APUG/DPUG/Hybridphoto, then migrating to Photrio. It still feels like APUG. Please take some time for yourself and rest, knowing that there is a community of photographers here to support you and the community you helped build. I hope that Photrio fulfills your expectations.

Regards,
Darwin

Site looks great. However, can't sign in with FireFox. Internet Explorer works fine. Hope this is the right place to note this issue.

Well done. It still looks and feels the same, my settings persisted, and it was done in a way where I don't feel I need the Quick Start Guide. Everything makes enough sense that it's very easy to figure out.

One thing to be aware of... if you only enable one area (such as Analog), then "Mark All Read," it does mark all sections' posts as read - not just the one you have enabled. It's not something that affects how I would use the other sections, but some people might want to note this.

I did find an odd thing, though it could be my browser settings. If I am logged in to photrio.com and click on the logo in the banner, or on the gold "notice," I am sent to www.photrio.com where I am not logged in. The www seems separate regarding authentication.

Have you tried clearing your firefox cache/cookies? I can't seem to reproduce the issue on firefox. Thanks

I like how everything looks and works but I miss APUG. Isn't there a way to keep APUG as APUG and still be part of the trio without it being orphaned into oblivion?

I think everything looks great. Congratulations and thanks for all your efforts!

I had a couple solargraphs in the dpug gallery, doesn't look like they transferred over ( I can imagine merging the galleries would be tricky ).
I don't care at all... only thought of it because now I can see John's nice hybrid photos in the gallery and was wondering how they got classified Kinda cool to think I can post those if I want, tagged hybrid of course.

I'll keep DPUG open in a new space soon so some can get any data that didn't make it. Gallery pics didn't make it but most threads, posts and user accounts did.

WOW .... Sean this is incredible... well done.. Was gone all day, and wondered what it would be like when returned to try it, and ease my withdraw. Two thumbs up!

I had to look that up - never seen it before. Sounds really great, and from such a small distillery it should have real attention to the process.

It's a darn fine drop - and was *extremely* difficult to get in Australia (Thailand doesn't have it at all) - thankfully a big company stocks it; usually don't use them for regular alcohol, but they have the buying power to enable them to stock more boutique and unusual items. aka: imported beer (craft, small European brews etc), fine whiskey). If you visit their site, it gives their distributors, so hopefully, there's one nearby or one who is happy to ship at a fair price.

Loving the site, Sean! A couple of things I've noticed as I've been wandering around:

  1. I noticed in the Comments section, that the layout is different from the forums - is this intentional? Comments seem to sit rather tightly against the avatar.
  2. The Alerts are working great, but how do I clear them from the dropdown? I'm getting quite the collection of read alerts, and for some crazy reason, I thought they disappeared on APUG once I'd read them?
Shall keep wandering and noting anything that I pick up, but so far, looks like you've ironed out lots of the bugs even before going live.

No problems or criticisms at all from me. Everything appears to be an upgrade, and I am diggin' the new font! Everything seems all around much clearer and cleaner. I am really impressed. You've done a hell of a job!

Thanks Sean.
