It is good to see you, too! While I have been remiss in posting, you can rest assured that I have been "lurking" around here & checking in once or twice a day just about every day!
Off to check the rest of the most recent posts - you can be sure that I'll surface again elsewhere on the Board!
All the best to you & your beautiful family,

Hello, I'm new here. I have not been around long enough to see your prior board, but I think the present design is great, except for one thing. When I am surfing around in the history archives and storefront etc, how on earth do I turn off the music? LOL
You must be speaking of accessing those areas directly from the links on this board's default page [the only one that has music] - resulting in pop-up windows. In that case, the music will continue to play. As it stands right now, 2 choices ... either click those links on any other of the board's pages [where no music is playing] or turn off your speakers ...
About the music ... Probably no other single issue causes more comment - both positive & negative -than music playing on a web site. This one in particular. We get notes commending the choice and wanting to know if the music is on CD for purchase. Others we get state it is annoying or causes problems of one sort or another. What to do? A lovely tune ...
Thankyou for the welcome. The music is actually great. I think it reflects the web site perfectly. The only problem is that it makes my browser load slowly, at times. The only thing I would do differently is add a player at the bottom of the page where viewers could have the choice to turn the music off, if they wanted.
Maybe that would cut back on complaints, and also the viewers interested in the music could see the song currently playing, thus increase their interest (and their knowledge of the song playing). Just an idea. Whatever is chosen, however, is fine by me. The music will not keep me from visiting.
