  5. Sorry about the down time tonight. The host said there was an electrical problem. I don't know if lightning struck the building or if the janitor unplugged us, but it's good to be back online.

      TwinOaks, my tin foil hat was securely in place all during the outage. As a matter of fact, when the lightning hit, I too felt the effects, it was quite electrifying for a moment or two...

      I don't know if you can get rid of the status updates. I'll have to look around and get back to you. Thank you, Uwe, I know it's a big deal, and I'm glad we could get it resolved! :)

      I got rid of it before, a year or two.

      Someone else had asked how to do it and it was a relatively short and painless process.

  18. I appreciate your patience with the Gallery. We are working on resolving the problem ASAP. And yes, haha, the blue is temporary. I don't want to paint until I get this other stuff fixed. Thank you all for bearing with me.

    1. TwinOaks

      TwinOaks

      It's all good, I just thought I'd gone a little loopy for a bit. After the initial eye shock, I started playing around a bit and the site does work much faster...I thought it was ME slowing down. PHEW!!! Thank you Johanna

    2. LNLeather

      LNLeather

      Yeah! All the new stuff And it is Faster! WooHoo!

      I like the new color scheme, however the main brown doesn't seem as appeasing as the blue did, it just seems to loose it's depth. Can you transfer over the "LW Home" leather like Background over here in the forums? BTW the "Education, Entertainment & Fellowship!" at the top is a we bit small and hard to read with the brown.

      Love what your doing with the site though! Keep it up,

      Hey Johanna, are you still having problems with the gallery pictures? on my profile, the large pictures of the thumbnails are not showing up..... Thanks for all of your help!

  20. Did you notice Nik Wallenda's shoes? They were custom made for him by his mother of elkskin.

    1. LNLeather

      LNLeather

      Well I had to search for that one - and learned some interesting facts and a new word... Those shoes look Might comfy. This kind of supple footwear gave him maximum protection and proprioception.

  23. Are your Xmas orders finished?

  24. When we went online in 2006, I thought maybe 300-400 people would use the site. About 3000 people visit here every day.
