Do you have problems, concerns, or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
I'm sure I'm not the only person who just got an email from People's Forum... How is this possible?
I've pledged to continue running the site (for no pay) as long as members continue to be willing to pay for the cost of hosting it (presently $224/month), and so far they have done just that. In fact, PF has been entirely member-supported for almost 4 years now!
How are we getting off so cheap if PF costs $224 a month??
I got that email too.
I quickly unsubbed my self off that list.
I suspect that Lance Brown isn't, maybe, the most hard-deal-driving savvy businessman out there.
And maybe we just got lucky.
$224 is probably managed hosting, where somebody is else paid to manage the server. I'm saying probably as I've no clue of the situation, but $224 is ball park for a very decent spec server with fully managed hosting from a big company. From my experience, I paid on average (over the last few years) $70 a month for the UK and US Serenity sites, with registered user numbers at the low 5 figures. I've got it down to $50 nowadays by ditching some of the really old content and moving back to shared hoting.
Jesse, don't forget to make your finances post. ::random reminder fairy::

Anyone come up with a fix for the posting box position on IE in the css version of the board? I'm stumped.
Try changing #postmessage as follows:
#postmessage { MARGIN: 1em auto; WIDTH: 505px; TEXT-ALIGN: left }
Works for me in Firefox 2, IE 7, and Opera 9, all in Windows XP.
Thanks. Marked and noted. I'll try getting that changed before I leave for work.
Not that many people tried it out, eh? Perhaps a wider-ranged call is required.
Oooh, I just discovered that css.b.net isn't blocked by the employer. I think I'll be reading and posting from there for a while!
