Just a quick note to the Crafty Crafters out there.
Are we happy here? Is Jim looking after you like I did?
Are we getting on ok with the shower of plonkers on this site?
Have we all settled in ok?

I think the answer to all of the above is a big fat YES WE LOVE IT HERE INIT?

It's right to let you know what is happening with the old place.
With the talk of young Alex setting up a website and various emails with him and Jim I have taken the liberty of opening it up for members pages here.
The old forum was huge with a large database I have wiped compleletly and started afresh with a wordpress blog for the members here to have a few pages to call their website.
Many nerds showed their faces to help Alex which is only a good thing but there are still plenty who struggle with tinternet.
We can help a little here by setting up a small site for them to play with.
There is limited space as I have renewed on a smaller scale, therefore a limit of 3 pages per member until we know exactly whats what with it.

Please take the time to look and let me know what you see as potential or want to do with your 3 pages?
It is very fresh and bare at the moment But Alex has successfuly posted his first pic all by himself, well done young man.

This is open to all members www.penturners.co.uk.

Thanks also to Jim for making it possible and running such a good community. together we can make him rich and famous.

I am obviously the only one here who hasn't a clue what all this means.:nooidea:

What it means is that you now have access to some webspace (3 pages), where you can put photos of your work and some blurb about how good you are etc etc.

Free of charge and the "setup" has been done for you.

That help?

Bob.

If what i understand what Brian is offering is an advertising space for your work. It won't be another forum such as this..

Excellent offer Brian.. Well done, I may take you up on that..

There is no need for another forum with this one being so popular.
I am just trying to help a few people who would otherwise have no means of publicity or those who just want to play building a web site.
I am happy to help where needed, its only a few files on a hard-drive no big deal.
Pm me if you want to participate and I will add some files for you and send a logon so you can play.
I have put a few dummy pages up along with young Alex's so you can see some of different themes available.
Have a look here.

Seeing as nobody has taken up this offer and the domain was due for renewal on the 11th I have not bothered to renew it.
craftcrater is now declared deceased.

LONG LIVE THE PENTUNERS FORUM, ROCK ON JIM.
I know we are all happy here among our new friends, I only have to see how you are all posting to enjoy watching you all blossom.
A new lease of life for some of you init?
Love you all keep it up lads.
