Fresno Famous will be going offline for a few hours starting at 2 p.m. PST on Wednesday, August 15. Suzi and Marco at Advomatic will be upgrading the Drupal code that runs the site.
I just found that, (instead of,) the usual prompt, '..a new password has been sent to your Email address,'
---I got this 'good for one time only, after you read the terms, conditions, privacy policy and give blood, tissue, and urine samples...'
(they should be on your desk in the morning...)
---it was just that the 'click on,' buttons to open those parts was yeilding nothing, ---nor did the auto-direct of me over to a more longlasting password...
it's 'grassy-knoll,'
(---but don't tell anyone...)
Other'n the above mentioned, things seem to be going fine..

There's been no changes to the TOS or Privacy Policy (outside of changing the responsible party contact info) since the Time of Jarah. We're not trying to pull anything on our users by making them check that box.
I'm not sure why you had issues with your password. Has anyone else had those problems?
...okay, I totally realize that the cyber folks are currently wrestling alligators (HI SUZI----how ya doin kitten??? ;)
Anyway: the following...
Unable to get into the site at all up until quite late last night.
This afternoon
-had to reset pasword two times to get in.
-still have ghost 'you gottums a private message, bubba,' thing.
-though I had to reset my password (manually, the auto-redirect thing wasn't working?
-There was a demand that I read the terms of use and privacy policy thing and filling out of some sort of form before I was allowed any further, 'click here,'
---problem was?
clicking on the 'highlighted,' privacy policy and terms of use would not open it,
---so if there's any changes in the privacy policy and the terms of use?
---I have NO way of knowing...
-which begs the question... ----are there any changes in the privacy and terms of use policies????
...and some things are slightly 'undone' like the funky characters you will notice in some posts. We shall fix those up soon.
For those of you who care to know, and know about the drupal....
This was a major upgrade from drupal version 4.6 to 5.2. Part of that was marco's magical conversion of all the flexinode content types to CCK (a much more powerful weapon). I am sure the new keepers of the Famous have lots to tell you about the upgrade and some new tools they have been working on for you.
In the meanwhile, be kind to the bugs as they crop up over the next few days. It's to be expected.
Don't forget the Help, Suggestions, and Errors forum for those inclined to post about issues.
I was really hoping that the update would fix the constant remiders that I have two new private messages (WHEN I DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE NEW ONES), but it didn't...and now it's worse. Every page I click has that damn "two new private ghost messages" reminder staring me in the face.
Anybody else still have this?
Okay, what happened? It's
Okay, what happened? It's not the same anymore.

Greetings to Fresno from Brooklyn!

I was really hoping that the update would fix the constant remiders that I have two new private messages (WHEN I DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE NEW ONES), but it didn't...and now it's worse. Every page I click has that damn "two new private ghost messages" reminder staring me in the face.
