I just moved TGT over to a new server and database. I'm actually paying for this one, so it should be much more responsive - if it's not, I can file a support issue and have it fixed. Razz

Merry Xmas!

Note - the Media files (videos, documentaries) are still hosted over on fioca.com for now, but that's ok. I'll move them eventually - I just don't want to pay for the bandwidth. Very Happy

I got rid of the ads, too. They were just annoying and haven't really made me that much money anyway. Razz

Since yer paying for hosting and all, maybe we should pass the hat around to cover support costs?

Naa not yet. I'm using the hosting for other things too, so it's a wash. If I start to get broke, maybe. Very Happy

Thanks for the offer, though!

This is great, Brian!

One request/suggestion: Can you move the media _page_ to www.thegreattree.com, and only keep the file pointers to fioca.com? Alternatively, cause thegreattree.com/media to redirect.

That way, existing links to the media page won't break. (Too bad for anyone hardlinking to the files - they shouldn't do that.) The page itself shouldn't use too much bandwidth, right?

Note: The scripts are all hardcoded to www.thegreatree.com and don't use relative links, so I'm going to fix those right away.

Update Links all fixed, scripts re-uploaded. Also, pulling Logo3.jpg from www.thegreattree.com for the page because there's not a simple path to it under fioca.com. (One trick to save a little bandwidth - stick the image back on fioca.com, and make all references to the Logo src point back there.)

Hey Brian, thanks for the fine work.

...and don't be afraid to "pass the hat" as Blade suggested... I think we're all more than willing to pony up some cash for TGT.

Cheers!

Thank you soooo much, Brian Very Happy

That's a wonderful Christmas present and a release...

And I agree with "passing the hat" if necessary, of course... Razz

I wasn't certain with your work situation that you'd have time to address it. This is certainly a wonderful gift to us all. Smile

I agree! It's great to be able to link to the site without any connection errors and to post messages without refreshing the page numerous times before it's submitted. Very Happy

Wow! This works great. Thank you, Brian.

Although I kind of miss the ads for tree-related things because they showed that a bot was at work. Smile
