    Since this is a holiday weekend and a good majority of our users will either be on the road traveling at 60 MPG :D or participating in other Memorial Day activities, I'm going to take the opportunity to upgrade PriusChat to PC2.

    Just a warning that the site may be down at times this weekend as we move everything over to our new server (yay!) and upgrade to the new PriusChat. When everyone in the US returns on Tuesday, you'll most likely see a very different look for PriusChat and hopefully a better PC experience.

    If you have any questions, feel free to post them here.

    I guess that means you got the kinks of moving the files over worked out. I'll be home/working all weekend. Be safe out there everyone.

    May the force be with you. (Or should it be synergy?)

    That will be something to see! I can't really say there is ANYTHING I don't like or find difficult about PriusChat!

    I do have one suggestion

    Maybe Danny can create the "Diamond Level" Sponsor and give that person a free Prius. Say, maybe $500 bucks?

    [fingers crossed]

    Hopefully the part that will take the longest will be the nameserver change.

    I'll be in Arizona for the weekend, and probably won't be on. Hope the transition goes well. :)

    Also hoping that I see at least 50+mpg on my drive out from SoCal :)

    Maybe we could do it like those "Plasma TVs for $500!" scams that went around a couple of years ago. Everyone contributes $1,000, then after the 26th person puts in his $1,000 the first person gets their Prius. Then about 20 or so more people get on the list, then I take the rest of the money and run to Mexico!

    Ahh. The beauty of the pyramid. Since you did say we, does that mean I get a cut of the action?[/i]

    Danny,

    Is the new PriusChat 2 going to have the same monitor resolution as PriusChat 1? This has been discussed before with those of us who have our monitors set to 800 by 600. I would love to go to 1024 by 768 but my old eyes just can't handle how small everything gets.

    Jeff

    It is probably going to be similar. We'll see how it looks once we switch over and then I'll try to manipulate a few things in order to have it fit better at 800x600 resolution.

    The site will be going down around 12am EST tonight and will be back up as soon as I get done everything that needs to be done!

    Hopefully there won't be much downtime!

    although it would only make a small amount of difference, if you are using
    the Mozilla browser, under the view menu you can alter the size of your text
    only from 50% to about 500%. this will not make a huge difference since the
    larger text would still create side scroll bars. but since it only changes the
    size of the text, you will gain some benefit from it.
