I'm impressed with how quickly the forum was migrated over, given the homegrown custom software setup it had before.
Only one issue - I upgraded to a paid membership on the old site a couple days before it was migrated over. The upgrade never took effect. I had just been waiting because there was a notice that it could sometimes take a while, but especially now that the site software is migrated over I'm not sure if there will be manual intervention needed for it to work.

Oh yeah, do you know if there’s any benefits that the paid members get? As as far as I know I have been a paid member for quite a couple of years now and I’m wanting to see what else It can do.
By the way, has anybody else tried uploading a video directly to the site as I tried using my iPhone and it was actually easier to upload here than it was on YouTube

Thank you!
Before I was upgraded I could by clicking my username in the upper right corner then click "Account upgrades"... however now that I'm upgraded I can't see the screen. I guess someone who isn't upgraded will have to take a screenshot...

There are perks, but not all of them are fully functional yet. You still have the private forums, the self-editing time, increased DMs allowed, the increased file storage for your albums. Check out your media.

I found it under Account > Account Details > Account Upgrades.. but I am hoping the price is.. wrong/just a filler number? (I am going to assume they are still filling in details?)
- Platinum Premium Membership$200.00 per year
Expires: Apr 6, 2026
- * All the features of Gold PLUS:
- * Custom Platinum Level Badge (replaces Gold badge)
- * Can be "Invisible"
- * Can see who is "Invisible"
It looks like they gave all the upgraded members from the old site Platinum which is the highest tier. There are several tiers below Platinum which are much cheaper - the lowest one was $20 or $30 a year, which gives most of the upgraded features from the old site if I remember correctly. But you can't see the lower tier options when you're already at Platinum.
Overall it is a price increase from the old site but to be fair, it looks like there will be some extra functionality that the old site didn't have.

I am checking your account and should have an update shortly.
We had the incorrect pricing in and have changed it to be based on the prior Premium pricing. So please check it out again when you have time.
I apologize for the incorrect pricing initially displayed.

So is this a permanent change for this website? Is this how it’s going to look from now on? This is really difficult to navigate
Thank you for that analogy. I think it's an accurate example.
Can you explain what's difficult to navigate, and I may be able to clarify things to help you?
Just hope the layout is reminiscent of what it once was at time marches on. Use this site for technical information, currently in the process of trying to get these going again (at least the dryer), along with tips and tricks to make a diagnosis a bit easier.Thank you for that analogy. I think it's an accurate example.

Alan,
So, I looked at my member page and it now shows $96.00 annually for Platinum, instead of $200.00, but this is still more than I’m willing to pay. There is mention of other upgraded levels from $20 to $30 per year, but for the life of me I can’t find anywhere on the site that gives any detail of the different upgrades, what they cost and what additional features that they include. Can you please let us all know where we may find this info. My upgraded membership expires in 10 days and I’d like to know what my options are. BTW, will members receive a notice when their upgraded days have expired and how to renew? Thanks!
Eddie

@ea56, at the end of this year, your membership will expire, and you will then be able to see all the benefits of each level. I see that at this time, you can only see your level. Let me discuss this with the lead tech, as each level is usually visible, and your level with an expiration date will be displayed at the bottom.
You can now access the account upgrade link and view all available options.
