PN will be down some on Monday morning for some new hardware installation. It will probably take about an hour, but it could go longer if things don't go well.

The PN just keeps growing to the point where more stuff has to be added. We should all realize how lucky we are to have someone like Ames who will maintain and improve this site, while still going in the hole financially for a bunch of nerds like us!
The Lord reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice, clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. Fire goes before Him, and consumes his foes on every side; His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles; the mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth. The heavens proclaim His righteousness and all peoples will see His glory. -
1. I'm glad the site will be down for awhile, give me a chance to get some work done for once.
2. I don't know anything about how this works or what it's costing, but I don't think Ames should be taking a financial hit for us. My guess is most websites that survive do so by taking on advertising. Someone posted the other day that we had back to back 200K hit days last month. It seems to me at that level you could attract some ads Ames, although again I have no idea how you actually go about that, but you probably do. I for one would have no problem with ads appearing on the PN site in order to make it financially viable for you. The only thing I would ask is you don't get it set up so I get a @#%*! pop up ad every time I open a thread like some sites have.GO PANTHERS!Comment

Thanks guys. Ads could be done and from what I've heard would do the job finacially, but I'm not sure that's where I want PN to go so I haven't done them. Popups are not something I would even consider, I'm sure they are effect, but I can't stand them. Google does a good job and would probably be the only one I'd look at.Comment

yeah, we need some Adult Cinema 16 (or whatever it is) ads around here ;opComment

Speaking of ads....anyone notice our very first advertiser? The Panther Scholarship Club's (f/k/a Athletic Club) annual fund drive has begun and if anyone wants a chance to get a seat in the McLeod Center, those that are in the PSC will be the first to select their seats.
I think the new PSC logo is pretty cool and it looks good at the top of Panther Nation!!Comment

The hardware install went well. Not too much downtime. I did notice a lot of people trying to get on while the server was down I'm going to make another change tonight, but it won't lead to any downtime and no one should notice.
