Hey guys and gals Kori here again. No when moving a site you do not have to register again, copy files, or photos. You may lose use for a day or two will the dns changes the location the sit name points too. Usually less than 24 hrs. with the .com address. I would in turn copy the data base and all site files to the new site once i have access to them.

Might take a day or two.

Below is the link to my current company. I highly recommend them. I think my 1 year statrup cost was less than $60. That was a year of service and a new domai name. You have a domain so you can transfer or i suggest just point it to their name server.

This should do you for a long time. I host two gaming sites from here with allot of download files. Haven't even hit half full.

Let me know. I got the 12 month purchase price.

Kori,

This would be PERFECT, thanks!! When would you be available to move the discussion forum? I can move the site files, no problem, I might need help just moving this forum. Can you send me an e-mail detailing exactly what needs to be done in order to successfuly move the forum to a new hosting server without losing data (mandygates@prodigy.net)?

Thanks!!

It's easy and free. Search for Image shack then hit the browse button then add the picture you want and they will host it for you. All you have to do is pick what size you want (thumbnail or full picture) and cut that link and then when you come back here hit the IMG button at the top and hit paste. It's really simple.
Well that's how I was taught by other Bulletin boards that I use to belong too.

Iam so glad that I am not the only one that does not know what the h**l is going on. I have been trying to follow, but I am so totally lost. I'm an old woman and I just learned how to do the smileys. Computors and I do not get along real good.

They are talking about moving the forum and website to a different hosting so that their will be more space for all the pictures and everything else.

I got that part, but will we have to do anything . I'm just wondering because I'm real stupid about computors and the simpler the better.

We're going to do our darndest to make the transition as seamless as possible...meaning, no one will have to do anything other than to continue enjoying the forum and posting pictures. We may have a day when the forum will be inaccessible because of the move, but other than that, it should be pretty seamless.

I will need access to your cpanel to get the database and ftp for the files. Being you only have a 200 meg account size it wont take long to move if all goes well. You will also need to order an accoutn with the hosting company. When they send you the email with all the login info I will need that to reset the database up and ftp your files in.

My email is korib@commgames.net

The hosting account has been set-up and activated with Inverdigm, Inc. I'll send you the required information as soon as I get home...on my way out the door now!

[KellyB]

Just email me and we work on it. Should take less than a day to do. Then you can host all the pics you want. Our you keeping the domain name where it is at or did you transfer it. Hope you kept it where you have it that will be easiest.

Here are a few of the sites I have worked with

www.commgames.net (will be down til tomorrow upgrading the site software)
www.nam-hq.com
www.elitesocom.com/index.php

[Javaluva]

I kept the domain name where it is and will redirect to the new DNS as soon as we get all of the files moved, that way we shouldn't have too much site downtime, if any.

Will I be the only one going through withdrawel?

[Jennymay]

Ok...I admit, I was exaggerating about not knowing how to use the smiley's....
All the shop talk about the move of the site got me a little boggled!!!
BUT...it sounds like it's the right thing to do, from the gist of it...I'll be waiting for the message to let us know where the new one is!!

[Javaluva]

No need to fear, we'll still be in the same place...secondchancedobes.com....the switch shouldn't even be noticeable with regard to finding the site and forum.

[Javaluva]

Alrighty, Kori, you have mail!! Let me know when you're ready to start the transition so I can put out a notice to everyone so as not to cause alarm and will take the forum temporarily offline while you work on it.

[Javaluva]

Once we get the site switched to the new host server, I'll install a chatroom as well.

[Jennymay]

ALRIGHT!!
We'll get our chatroom back!!!!


Ok, now I'm really excited!!!
Alright Mandy!!!

If you read this take it down. I am pulling the ftp right now as we speak. Once I see it is down I will pull the database. Point the dns will you are at it. It should propagate by morning.
