Just a note to let you know I've updated the "In Memoriam" page. Thank you for helping me! Please confirm that I have the names and Ebay IDs correct. Hopefully I haven't accidentally added anyone who shouldn't be there.
Thanks again,
Curt 🙂

I believe there are a few people missing from the "In Memoriam" page. I modified that page to make changes easier, so if you could remind me who's missing I will make sure to add them. You can either post them here, or email them to me.
Thank you!

Thank you for the birthday wishes! It ended up being a hectic week. I was in San Antonio all week for a work-related trip. Our group squeezed in some time in the evenings to take in the local sights, including a Riverwalk Boat Tour. We had an excellent captain/tour guide, so that was fun. It definitely was humid in San Antonio! lol

You're welcome (re: the Book Board)! I'm just happy that you still come to the board to chat and keep in touch with one another.

Thanks Again,
Curt

I believe I have the Image Wizard working again, so you might want to give that a try. Keep in mind that t's not necessary to use the image hosting site I recommended, any good hosting site will do. The HTML that you paste into the message box should look something like this:

<img src="https://i.postimg.cc/wvgt1BnH/71870241-F4-E9-4-C08-B23-C-3-AD876-C95941.jpg" width="640" height="480">

The width and height attributes are not necessary. The most important thing is to put the correct URL to the image between the quotes as in the example above.

I hope this makes sense, but please let me know if you have questions.

Thanks,
Curt

I added an SSL certificate to this website, so now your password and everything else you enter is encrypted when it travels over the internet. Your old bookmarks should automatically redirect to https://www.bookboardchat.com/. The only difference in the address is the "s" that now appears after "http".

If this all sounds like gobbledygook you can safely ignore this post 🙂

For any chatroomboard users seeing this, I plan to upgrade your sites very soon.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Curt

I would recommend that anyone who wants their birthday to show up in the right hand sidebar to please edit their member profile and update it. Hit the "save changes" button even if your birthday looks correct. Something apparently happened to the birthday field during one of the many system upgrades. I apologize to anyone who's birthday was missed.
Thanks,
Curt

The upgrade is complete. There is a known bug that is causing the "Load More" button to be inoperative and may cause password resets to fail. The developers should have a fix out in a week or two.

As I mentioned yesterday, pictures will now display in your posts. They still need to be hosted elsewhere and I highly recommend http://postimage.org for that. Please use the new "Image Wizard" menu option above to get started with posting images on this site.

Here's a picture of my cat Chauncey, who at this very moment is draped across my arms and making it difficult to type.

Pictures are automatically displayed at a reduced size in your post. To see Chauncey at full size just click on the picture. A window or tab will open with the original, full-size version displayed. When you are done, just close the window or tab.

When you put the html for your image in your post, it should look something like this:
<img src="http://s16.postimg.org/4badcbx79/chauncey.jpg" width="640" height="480">
Notice that you only need to use the HTML img tag. The program will turn it into a link automatically, so you don't need to do that yourselves.

See the section in the Image Wizard labeled "Tips For Posting Images". Please read those tips before you post your first image. IMPORTANT: Posting pictures that have not been resized for the web will only make the board sluggish, so as I say in the instructions in the Image Wizard, "BE KIND, RESIZE!!!"

Hopefully you won't run into to many problems with this upgrade, but if you do find something wrong, please let me know immediately.

Thanks,
Curt

to the Chat Boards tonight. Please refrain from using the board after 9pm
eastern time. When I'm finished I'll post an "all clear" 🙂

If all goes well each board should only be down for about 15 minutes. One
of the new features will be the ability to add pictures to your posts. If
you run into any problems after the upgrade please let me know.

Thanks,
Curt

But as Bill mentions, hitting refresh usually solves the problem. I suspect that it could be a problem with the browser's cache, so clearing your cache might be worth a try, but I'm guessing you already tried that.
As always, if anyone ever has any problems, please let me know.
