Hi Rich - just to make you aware Mathew has said he'd be happy to do you a banner for this place if you wanted one? He isn't joining yet - but the offer of the banner is there if you want it

I was thinking fairground waltzer 'cups' with a Quo theme. Something with cups, anyway. But go easy on me, I don't have photoshop any more!

You've just reminded me of Kirsten's favourite ride at a local "theme" park when she was little! The teacup ride at Paulton's Park!! Not a waltzer, but many happy memories!

MatNoodle lol! Anything you could provide would be 100% better than anything than I could do! And that sounds like a pretty good idea straight away tbh LadyMac - I'm pleased Mat didn't suggest the Umbrellas, I'd have hated to have then seen a piccy, after me having thrown up on them (onto the person below) many moons ago at Chalkwell Park in Southend! (puke)

Problem is that the Url still is quocupsncafe.proboards.com , which I assume does keep people away (it is a stupid name IMVHO, especially when you don't know its history from the official mb). We could change it too actually, but I suspect it would cause chaos, as many people have the address bookmarked and wouldn't find it any more under a new name - so we're stuck with it ..

From what I know as a PB admin myself, when you change the URL they actually redirect all users to the new page for a while. After that you probably have to do a search to find it again - if you're somebody who doesn't visit the site often. Also, changing the URL costs something. Not a lot but still, I'm not sure it would be worth paying for... I don't have an issue with "quocupsncafe.proboards.com" - it's a lot of letters but if you visit a site often, your browser should do auto-complete, and since I don't visit other sites with "q" at the beginning, all I do when I come here is press "q" and then "enter". Very quick!

Very quick! Yeah, that's basically it. Changing isn't the main problem, but we've got a considerable number of members who merely look in occasionally and links to this mb put up elsewhere would need changing. I've got all my browsers starting with the speed click choices and our mb is one of the icons, so merely one click for me.
