John, have you considered varying subscription levels, e.g., silver/gold/platinum where users have different features offered to them such as maybe for $99/year we could host images on the site, etc.?

I haven't thought much about it, but would definitely consider other subscription level options if there was interest.

For anyone else reading this, would you be interested in what Kevin described? Are there any other bonus accounts features that you would like to have?

I have no idea with what that means!

I think I reached my potential figuring out the avatar! ;)

Hey, AGDLynn, I clicked on your avatar to see it more clearly and got to your profile. Happy to see that you are a Scorpio as well. Anyway I wasn't creepin' on you, just in case you wonder. And whatever that avatar is, I like the colors.

Don't have an opinion on any of the tech stuff, leaving that to others.

Looks to me like there's a squirrel in there. But I'll admit that I haven't been able to figure your avatar out yet. :o

Avatar = squirrel wearing a space suit and shooting a laser :cool:

Thanks for that, AGDLynn and MC. Now I see the squirrel. Mine? Ghengis Khan. Huge statue in Mongolia. Which you can climb up inside and look out the eyes at the site of his first battle. Yes, I did. Climb it and look out.

Now that is cool.

Near server crash today with a load level of 78.94

Hopefully the new hard drives get here soon. I've read that these drives are in very short supply, so I might give the distributor a call to find out how long it might take. If too long maybe I'll switch to different drives that they have in stock.

Thanks for helping to support GC!

Would it be helpful if we had larger avatars? Maybe this is something to consider.

That or people just need better pictures that have more visible details for the resolution allowed. Pandas are good for that purpose ;)

Done! Now off to find my avatar!

Finally received the new server hard drives (SSDs). Took a little while since they were backordered. Now I can get started this week on the server build.

Woo hoo! Just in time for the fall sorority recruitment merriment. :D

When I think of the collective time we all spend on recruitment stories alone every year... We probably could have cured cancer by now! LOL! :)

Tell us how you like those SSDs. I'm strongly considering them for my next system build.
