ScrapGirlsRo Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 With the excitement we went through last weekend (we were down all day on Friday), it was discovered that our board/gallery software is out-of-date. Support has recommended that we upgrade as soon as possible and so I have put in the request today. What this means Not so fun: When the upgrade happens, our purple board will turn blue because the default template will be in place. I will then have to go into the CSS files and change all of the colors again. This is quite a project and you'll see me working. Fun: We'll get to play with all of the new functionality. One of the cool things that the new update includes is the ability to comment on status updates, just like you can in Facebook. That should be fun! So hold your breath... Hopefully, the upgrade won't be too bumpy of a ride! (I can't say exactly when it will happen. I already have put in the support request. It will depend upon when they get to it. I'm hoping today because I want to get it over!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather09 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I hope the upgrade isn't too painful for you....here's hoping it's a smooth ride for everyone! Being able to comment on status updates sounds fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B&K Mom Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 We'll hold on for the ride, Ro. Thanks for always working to make this place better and better (even if it means turning blue for a little bit). May it go smoothly for everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jster025 Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Glad things will be fixed. It has been a rather bumpy ride lately—kind of like our electricity, which has gone out for 1-2 hours at least once a week for the last month or so. Sorry it puts a lot of work on your shoulders; but you have addicted us all to the color purple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AggieB Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 Thanks for the update - the board was as normal this morning, then this afternoon, all blue. I didn't know what had happened. As long as things work, Ro, don't worry about the color too much - you don't want to get sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
