I suggest that we add a section for each committee and have a committee member moderate it. That way we can exchange ideas across committees and the group as a whole.

They are setup, but I need to setup the permissions. And Joe has the list of committee members.

I set these forums up as hidden from all except the committee members. Those members will need to report back the goings on to the guild at the monthly meeting.

The commitees groups are setup. They are viewable to registered users.

Also added the forum subscriptions.

Lupulin Threshold Shift
lupulin threshold shift \lu·pu·lin thresh·old shift\ n
1. When a once extraordinarily hoppy beer now seems pedestrian.
2. The phenomenon a person has when craving more bitterness in beer.
3. The long-term exposure to extremely hoppy beers; if excessive or prolonged, a habitual dependence on hops will occur.
4. When a "Double IPA" just is not enough

I like this forum, my only complaint is that the last 8-10 chars dont show on my screen and I have to use the slider bar at the bottom to see all of each message. Is there a way for me to reformat it? Or am I stuck with the slider?

I have the same problem on my laptop but not on my desktop, of course I have 19" monitors on my desktops. I couln't figure out a way to change the view either. Might be a server-side preference.

HEY SEAN! FIX IT! :D
Thanks!

Working on it. It's not a server thing, it's an HTML thing. Lemme do some looking around and try to correct it.

Since I view the web at either 1024x768 or 1280x1024 screen resolution, I never see the problem. Sorry about that.

I changed the logo to fix the problem. I would like to try and use the other logo at the top in the center, but this will fix the width problem until I figure it out.

Yeah, I made the change. You may need to hit control-f5 to clear out any saved / cached webpages or to refresh the content.

I see the new logo on my machine, but I had to refresh to see it.
