    Pet Talk Back!

    We had to move our server and Pet Talk because spammers had broken in. We don't think they changed anything on Pet Talk, but just in case, once you log in, you should change your password. We are sorry things look a bit ugly right now, we are still working on getting the new software set up, but wanted to open the forums back up so you can post. Thank you for your patience with all of this.

    We had been planning to move to a new server, but were forced to do it immediately, before we were ready. Now we are on the new server, which should be faster, once it is set up. Right now, it is still upgrading the search engine index, so the Pet Talk search feature will not work until the index is rebuilt. The server will be slow until this stops, but as we have over 2 million posts, it will take a while. Once that is done, Pet Talk will be faster, and search will work.

    If you have any comments or suggestions, please post them here. We are just learning about the capabilities of the new software, and hope you will bear with us during all this. We hope it will be better for everyone once it is done. Thanks again!

    What a nuisance! Sorry you had to do it all so fast, but I'm sure you'll get it set up nicely. I'll have a look around now.

    Any chance of putting other fonts in? I thought a couple of nice ones for Birthdays and COTD threads.

    Oh, and the blue font color for the forums... is it possible to make that a little darker, and the text color, too?

    I like my window fairly narrow, because I want access to a chat program I have on the side. When I put it the size I want, it looks like this - see right side! Also, when I'm on the "New Posts" page, my window has to be 33 centimeters wide to see all of the text.

    The Pet Talk logo looks great on that background, though! I like that you can rid of the column on the right.

    Thanks Karen and Paul!

    Wow, we have a new look! Thank you Paul, for giving up your weekend so we can all be chatty! LOL

    Karen, good job giving support, hot chocolate, and the hovering that you say is your contribution to this particular bit of the process, lol.

    I like the new look Karen & Paul. Sometimes it's nice to have a fresh new look just to keep things more interesting - not that there was anything wrong with the old look tho. I cannot even imagine all the work that has gone into this change/move. Thanks for all that you do for us pet lovers!

    Wow what a cool looking website I'm on
    Thankyou, Paul and Karen.
    I can report one problem. In my old Windows XP computer at home, I cannot see the Login fields properly. I only could see the one for the password, so I entered the password and when it told me the combination of password and user name (which I could not enter ) was not valid it also showed me the complete login screen so that's why I am here finally

    Thanks for all your hard work! The searches are coming up with nothing. I was trying to find a certain photo. Is this just temporary? Also, don't see a way to search a certain area here.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.
