I think it's fine to have Elizabeth. She has and is a trusted GGA member. As a former board member, I welcome her input.

I indeed activated Elizabeth Freer as she is a GGA member and I am not making it a mystery me and her are gecko friends, avoiding to talk about the GGA but exchanging correspondence on geckos, our lives, ect...I just thought her opinion would be helpful to me as she is a forum moderator, so she knows a bit more than anyone else on the Board about how forums work from the inside. By the way, she is just a member, not an admin. Sorry for that if that creates uncomfortable feelings to some of you.

Id actually prefer not yanking the membership around, from place to place, and waiting until we have a near final product before sending in the troops. Im not even sure who some of these new registered members are. Its a bit curious to have non-board members scrutinizing our ideas before we even find agreement on them ourselves.

Please everyone get on there and check it out as soon as you can. Thank you for getting 6.1 up on the website front page, very cool!

How about all the board members visit the GGA forum and post approval, comments (or say nay - informal vote), then a link can be put on the website? There is already a page on the GGA web for forum information and link. http://www.gekkota.com/html/listserve.html BTY - Gekko 6.1 is now on the GGA website. http://www.gekkota.com/ http://www.gekkota.com/html/book_store.html Leann From: gecko-ad...@lists.gekkota.com [mailto:gecko-ad...@lists.gekkota.com] On Behalf Of Jon & Stacy Boone Sent: Monday, March 28, 2011 10:20 AM To: gecko@lists.gekkota.com Subject: RE: [gecko]GGA Forum & Website Just as a suggestion: If the old GGA site is to be maintained due to the traffic that gets there, perhaps just a tab on the site for the new forum should be installed in a manner where it is plainly visible.

With a few people looking it over, we can get an idea of adjustments, things that are great, etc. Hervé can move forward. The banner on the GGA website - is that a good possibility? WEBSITE Having the OLD website with "information" and "content" up to date gives a new webmaster/web designer something to work from. Brittney's main complaint was a lack of input from Board members. Her efforts were taken from the old Website. Pretty much this is how most all web designers start - working from what exists. Updating INFORMATION on the old/current website is very, very beneficial. Potential members have correct information, past members see effort from the board. Based on that, I will keep getting bits of the OLD website current .to our benefit. -- www.geckoranch.com Serving the gecko community since 1993
