Hi Richard,

Were you doing any maintenance about 5:00-5:30 est (US), I think that it's 5 hrs difference between you and me, so about 10:00-10:30 am your time? I was about to download Dominatrix's I-Ching Cards when the connection broke. I coudn't reload, I couln't do anything. It jammed the program. I had to salute and reload the program. As soon as I attempted to come back to the OTZ, it (the program) jammed again I got a white screen, and a message that it couldn't find the site.

I was on my computer, not my wife's. Also, I didn't lose my internet connection.

Later,

Hi Marvin,

I have been working hard on some changes this morning, but I haven't actually been uploading anything yet so I think the glitches you mentioned are due to the service provider having a few problems. I think they have rebooted the database server a couple of times.

In point of fact I will be uploading changes in the next couple of hours (say between now and 14.00 GMT) ish. It might be better to wait up while this is going on.

If you check in later today you can let me know what you think!

Cheers,

Richard

Just as a follow up, I have finished updating the site. Hopefully most of the changes will be close to what people wanted. The deck exchange now gives us more options in terms of filtering and sorting, and the Forum is easier to navigate I hope.

Also, please look out for the new menu item Other Decks. These are the decks that were on the main website, but which I have now brought into the OTZ (yes, this is where we keep the carrots). As for the decks by Dominatrix which used to figure on the website, I am planning to upload them to the Deck Exchange.

BTW, I have an idea as to what might be causing the problems that some people are having with navigating the OTZ. I am going to upload a beta tomorrow that will hopefully shed some light on what is happening, so watch this space.

Enjoy the weekend!

Richard
