Title: LuLa2 - Feb14!
Post by: Christopher Sanderson on February 11, 2015, 04:46:12 pm
From the current What's New Page:

This Is The Screen You Will See This Friday Afternoon
Until the Launch On Saturday

The LuLa team is back from the Antarctica trip.  We’ll have more to report on this trip soon.

This is a big week for Luminous-Landscape.  This Saturday, February 14th, we will be launching the NEW Luminous-Landscape.  We are very excited about this and we are sure you will enjoy the new look and ease of use.  We’ll have a lot more about the new site in the Welcome Article that will appear on the day of the launch.

Until this Saturday there will be no more stories added to the present LuLa site.  All articles previously published for the last 15 years will be available when we launch the new site this weekend. 

Sometime Friday afternoon the Luminous-Landscape site will go offline and be replaced with a Coming Soon Splash Screen.  This will also go for the Forum.  So if you have posting for the forum please finish them by Friday morning.  The forum will relaunch where it was stopped with the launch of the new site.

Once we flip the switch turning the new site on it could take between a few hours and 48 hours for all DNS Servers to see the changes around the world.  If all goes well we expect the new site to go live on Saturday afternoon Eastern Standard time US.

Thank you for your patience during this transition.

it is likely a bit late in the game to ask about or suggest a feature that I think could prove invaluable to any number of users.

a "my posts" search would allow those of us with less than stellar memories determine what images we have posted in days and years past

Thank you.

I've ordered an ambulance to take me to the hospital the instant the new splash screen appears, and with an order to "do not resuscitate" until the new site is up.  :'(
