Does everyone like the look of the board better now?

I believe I've been extremely negligent and tardy in thanking Scott and Ron for starting this website. I am so impressed with you guys!! Bravo and "thank you" to both of you!

[Ron Thorne]

Thanks, Valerie.

As Scott and others have said, it's "a work in progress", but we're pleased with the response thus far.

And, as you probably have noted, we've had wonderful assistance from Justin, who's made us look good.

I have a suggestion for the subtitle of the boards name please.

As not to mislead or turn anyone away inadvertently how about "A Refugee forum for Jazz Lovers?" The present title is OK for *insiders* who know what that means and where we've come from, but I'd have to say not very inviting to others.

Or get the refugee thing out of there completely to "A Forum for Jazz Lovers"

[Mike Schwartz]

Doesn't the fact that the name of the site is Jazztalk pretty much give away what it's for?

Not mention that it's splashed across the header in huge letters...twice.

Scott...all the 'insider' type stuff should go away to make this a more inviting place IMO for New visitors, including "May The Schwartz Be With You" at Jazz News.

It's flattering and friendly among us that you titled it as you did; I posted radio guests at the old place for 10 years and had 80,000+ views, but if these produce even a few WTF is this [?] would not be best IMO.

I suggest that the Scottster grow a mullet.

I had a ducktail in my teens.

That wasa the uniform back in my Compton days: Levis, white t-shirt and a d.a.

Yep, the usual Saturday morning chicanery. Thanks, brother.

Sent you a PM and deleted my post before I saw your reply

I know nothing about boards like this, but doesn't the board software have some kind of spam filter?
