Adam, I finished the Konvas mag vid revision, working on an Arri16S vid, will send you the DL link probably tomorrow so you can add these to the site. Flash format both.

Hey all,
I've been putting this off for far too long, but the Konvas.org site will be going through some major changes over the next few days.

1st. The site will have a new look. The look will probably change a few times over the next week or so, as I try to find a decent balance between what is fast and efficient, but also easy on the eyes (a very hard combo, indeed!). Either way, it will not be the old Konvas.org look that you've come to both love and hate. With that said, I'm hoping that, overall, it will be less confusing for everyone and easier to operate.

2nd. The site's backend (what I use to manage the site) is also getting upgraded. This should mean work will be a little easier for me in the long run - the backend has been hard to navigate and manage for quite a while now. The problem I'm facing now is that this upgrade is a massively complicated task and thusly not something I'm looking forward to doing...

3rd. I need to hear your suggestions for what you'd like to see added or fixed in the site. If you don't suggest it, there is no way for me to know what you'd like added/changed. So please let me know what you'd like to see!

4th. If you'd like to advertise on Konvas.org, ad space is $50 per month. Please don't think I'm making a profit here, since running the server and discussion list uses up a lot of time, money, and energy each month. All interested parties should contact me, off-list, of course, and we'll set something up. Btw: Donations are also gladly accepted.

All in all, there will be a lot of changes and most likely a lot of broken items. When I'm finished with the upgrade, I'm going to need volunteers to look thru the site to make sure it is all working properly, so get your mouse-clicking fingers warmed up...

BTW: I'm gonna throw this out here, just in case someone is interested:
If you or someone you know is ready to build a website that is optimized for search engines, please be sure to contact me! Thanks!


Cheers,
