I moved the forum to a professional host site in June of this year in the hope that it would provide more stability than the old PC in my basement. Unfortunately, this seems to have been only partially successful. In the last few days, some problems have occurred. At least two files on the site have become corrupted. I have attempted to restore data and in most cases it has been successful, although some posts may be lost - sorry.
In the coming weeks, I will investigate moving to better, more reliable system, perhaps with an easier picture upload system - but the thought of moving nearly 1200 messages and pictures by hand is rather daunting
More later ...
This forum uses a program called "Cutecast". There is another, newer forum system (albeit for $200) that claims to be able to import data from Cutecast automatically. - Anyone know anything about this system or any other with the same import capability?

Steve,
If you need to buy new software I will pitch in.

Thanks guys. - For now, I have instituted an automatic backup system that makes a copy of the database every night. At least now if something gets lost I will be able to restore a recent copy. - Let's see how that goes for a while.

Ditto,
I'll contribute cash too, if needed.
I cannot overstate the value of this Forum to me and all the other Fournier owners -- especially when I'm in Australia, 1,500 miles away from the nearest other RF4.
Yours, Bob

Steve, I wasn't sure where to post this so have opted for here, but I just wanted to say that the present home page photo of the RF5B over Lake Tahoe is just lovely. I really liked the one of the Tulia Team too but Lake Tahoe nudges into the lead for me.

Donald,
I maintain the forum, Colin maintains the CFI website, so the credit is all his
