Sorry for the extended delay everyone, I really thought I'd be able to finish migrating stuff a couple of days ago...in fact, I still have stuff to move over...!

However, I've made the site available primarily because it actually gives me an excuse to allow my body to recooperate.

About the site itself -- while it looks almost exactly the same as our old design (I didn't want to kill myself in creating new everythang in such a short time), what's under the hood on the site is what's most impressive. The site is now powered by eZpublish, one of the top open source content management solutions out there. eZpublish will allow for much, much greater flexibility in our content and the types of resources we can now offer (those "issue/resources" sections I've been wanting to do for so long now).

I haven't yet decided on how to handle the member database from the old site. I believe I can shove them into the new site, but you will have to establish new passwords by using the "forgot my password" thingie. But I'll keep you updated on that later.

There's going to be no shortage of tiny bugs or errors, I'm afraid, so please let me know when you see something.

By the way, I'm looking for good writers for a blog-portion of the new site. PM me if you are interested in more info.

I haven't checked out the new site yet, but last night (early this morning), some members were having some problems accessing the member gallery. Is it fixed?

The member gallery is going to be temporarily disabled until I figure a way to re-integrate it.

Okay, did some major cleaning up of the main site. I am friggen pooped. It's still not 100% but it's a lot further along than it was before...
