    The message said 10am to 1pm, but I couldn't get back on until late this evening. Was that how long it took, or was this just something with my computer?

    I thought I'd go NUTS all day without this board! It's actually alarming to discover how much I depend on it as my fun place to go...

    i think the time frame must have been given in Standard Time. that threw me off because i'm on Daily Savings Time.

    soooooo ... it was an hour later than i expected before i could get back in myself.

    no matter. we're up and running again. :-)

    It helped us realize how much we depend on coming to the Quiltingboard to 'catch up, unwind, relax, chat and visit with our friends'. Glad we are back up and everything seems to be working fine.

    Withdrawal symptoms and all - even caffeine couldn't fix. So glad to be back.

    It was 8 or 9pm last night before I get back into the quilting board, and I had been trying since the 1pm time they originally gave! I just assumed they had problems... This morning I was getting the error message again, and only just now have been able to access the site for today. I hope they have fixed everything and it stays up now! It was a rough day without the QB! :o)

    I have everything repeated today. Mine is also slow in showing picutures. I don't have the section showing pictures.

    I have begain to think that it never well be back up. I haven't had it for over a week now. Now today they send me yesterday's message. I know that others are getting it, so if I get or not, I have quit trying. I enjoyed it while it lasted, but it looks like it is over.

    Oh my gosh, y'all... so fatalistic! Give the new site managers time to figure it out before jumping off a cliff! LOL, LOL, LOL! Let's try to remember this thing is a FREE service and those who keep it running are doing it for us.
    I appreciate that, as I wouldn't want the job!
