Some of you techno minded folk may know that NBAS and this forum are hosted by !and!. Some of you will also be aware that I'm NOT any sort of software or web design expert and used MS Frontpage as an easy way to set this site up. Now it seems that Frontpage uses some obscure "language" and, to a cerain extent, is obselete as a web designing facility.
I have never migrated to anything else despite occasional advice mainly due to my knowledge limitations.
Where's all this waffle leading I hear? Well, it seems !and1, bless their souls, are about to drop its support for the use of Frontpage extensions without which this lot will cease to exist. This migration of 1and1's takes place in about two weeks so I haven't got long to try and find some sort of solution.
Help!!!! |

I agree with kev13 and can say with all honesty that without this site and your help in the last year I would have been allot less advanced in the repair and improvement of both of my Normans and would miss my daily look to see whats happening in the boating world.
please keep up the good work Trevork as many people would miss you and this site otherwise |

Trev, back-up the site and make sure the back-up is on your PC rather than at the hosts.
Two weeks is a shockingly short notice period for such a big change! |

Trevor Hi,
Thank you so much for all your hard work over the years much appreciated by everyone, you have set a high standard that many other forums would love to attain.
It goes without saying, but if There is any financial outlay required pleas let us know.
