Finally! A much needed make-over. Hopefully it will be kept up to date, too.

I think this one will be kept up to date.

Some links are a little bit slow off the main page and a few of the links are experiencing problems but that I'm assuming is normal for now and probably will be fixed by the end of the week. I really am impressed with what I have seen thus far. I hope PNM's that cruise NPC sorority websites for information will be impressed too and think Theta when they go through recruitment!

I was just coming on to post the same thing. Looks good - sure I'm not "getting" all of it yet. . .

I'm actually not a huge fan of it. Don't get me wrong - the new features are cool - but the pages are way too busy in my opinion.

Is anyone else having problems logging in to the Thetas only sections? I cannot get in and wouldn't you know I need something from there today!

I havent checked it today, but last night I was havign trouble trying to access the discussion section and the Grand Convention rewards list.

Also FYI, when you log in make sure the information that comes up for you is correct. Everything was correct for me except they had me listed as the permanent alumnae secretary for the colorado springs alumnae chapter. I sent an email to Ruth to have that corrected so make sure your information is correct there.

I think it's mainly new start up problems right now which is to be expected with any new website. I wouldnt expect the problems with the site to last long.

I can't access the login section at all. My old password won't work for some reason, which I thought was weird. When I go to the Alumnae page for help - and fill out the info - I get a blank page with about six r's. I've emailed the webmaster, but I plan on being patient since I'm sure I'm not the only one with problems with the site.

I like the new website, I thought the old one was a bit dated, granted it's the only one I've ever known, I think - with some additions of course. I think it'll take me a little while to figure out where everything is on this site, I could navigate the old one with my eyes closed, but I don't think it'll be too hard.

The Convention Awards are available now if you want to see those. It's a two page document. On that note, Congrats to my undergrad chapter - Gamma Pi for receiving the Award for "Most Improved Scholarship."

The Theta Discussion area still isnt working for me but everything else in the log in section seems to be

YOu are able to personalize the home page with regard to what you want to see when it opens up or when you log on. IF you click on that link a list of items shows up and you can check which ones you want and which ones you dont. That might make it less busy for you.

It's taking me a little bit to get it all figured out but I'm getting it and liking it the more time I spend piddling around on there.

I love the new website. I was so used to the old one that I agree it will take a little time. As far as appearance and navigation, I like it. I, too, am having trouble logging in. I'm sure it'll be fine shortly.

Ruth emailed me on monday and said that the webmaster had been forwarded/made aware of the problems with the new site. Apparently the logging in thing and messed up personal info. have been common problems.

Agreed. I received a response to the email that I sent to the webmaster late last week saying that they were aware of the problem and working to fix it. I tried it again last night, it made me change my password but it let me in. If you can't get in yet, I'd give it a few days and give it another shot.

ThetaPrincess24 · #12 07-12-2006, 06:35 PM

I got in to the Theta Discussion area today! Yay! Unfortunately since no one else has been able to get in either recently there are no recent postings but I'm glad it seems to be working now just the same!

ThetaPrincess24 · #13 07-22-2006, 02:51 AM

is anyone else having problems with downloading and viewing the videos on the Theta website?

Janerz222 · #14 07-22-2006, 01:09 PM

I think I read somewhere that they posted the full (gigantic) files to get them up there, and they are working on lower-res (smaller) versions to make it easier to download them.

I really like both of them.

I haven't tried in the last week because I have been VERY sick, but when I tried LAST week, I couldn't get them to work. Very disappointing. I'm headed there now to try again.
