Location: Sunshine State, Australia		Hi gang.

Remember about 6 months ago I played around with setting up a local musicians' forum and some of you took a 'trial run' for me?

Well, the final version of the forum software I've been waiting for has now been released and my forum has gone 'live'.

I'd like some of you to have another look and offer suggestions and opinions.

For anyone running (or thinking of running) a forum, phpBB3 is very easy and eye-catching. A bit more sophisticated than phpbb2.

I believe you can even convert other BBs to phpBB3. (Miles, Al... )

Anyway, opinions and suggestions sought. I still need to design a 'cover' page, but... one thing at a time, eh?

Anyway, here is the link to my forum. Remember it's a local website, so there's not much sense in my overseas friends (ie, you lot) actually 'joining'.

Well... Sunshine Coast Acoustic Guitar club would've been continually raided by the Drug Squad.

Then I thought about Sunshine Coast Acoustic Music club, but thought I'd get too many dodgy Nigerian members.

It HAD to be scac.

Yeah, Oz, I'm still here. Look at the 'from' just below my signature. I'm not returning to the world's most civilised climate until I've given all of Schroeder's O's and A's a thorough workout.

Hey James, I just got a glimpse of your sig. I'm going to have to arrange a trip to Brizzy when I get home to give your collection a workout too. You'll have to hide the Celibate, though. I'm a confirmed Connecticut O snob.
