Hi Gabi, welcome back, and welcome back 18watt.com :!: .

Gee it all looks so different;- I see it all in a new light now, :lol: LoL!

Just shows how much we all depend on you, keeping things going & picking it up when it falls over;- does this cost you? I mean $'s as well as time :?:

Ian...

It is not too much time or cash to install everything back, I can manage it, no problem.
I would like to learn from this mistake and have the site backed up as many times as possible and also mirroring (an existent replica on another server).
In that case if one server fails, the other(s) still carry the flag on...

By all means the crash was an eye opener so now I look like this: 8O

Thanks,

Gabi.

Avatars

Post by zaphod_phil »

A strange thing about personalized Avatars is that you can't upload them within the Your Account section. In that section it only lets you chose from the low-res pre-canned ones. You need to click the Profile button at the top of this page and scroll down, to where it has a button to let you browse for and upload your own Avatars.

Thanks for all your hard work getting the site back up - I was lost without the site!!

It was going over to a buddies garage to talk amps and finding a burnt pile of rubble and just the foundation!!! :D Another amp mod gone bad ...

I am gonna paste this to the selling forum but read on:

I want to contribute something as a donation but cash flow is horrible now. I may try putting up a NEW set of Rio Grande Muy Grande Tele p/ups up on eBay and send any profit over half my cost to the 18 watt PayPal donation. Anyone here looking for a killer set of Tele pickups may want to contact me. You could get the pickups way under cost and know that you'd be helping out on the site.

Torres sells them discounted. Retail is $146.00 - Torres discount price is $119.95 These pickups are endorsed by Paul Ruby and myself - we THINK we know a thing or 2 about tone....

Anyone wanna make an offer?? riograndepickups@mindspring.com
