Welcome to the new Forno Bravo Forum

[james]

Welcome,

Here are a couple of guidelines for the Forno Bravo Forum:

1. We have moved this forum from its first location on groups.yahoo.com. In order to preserve as much content as possible, we have tried to copy postings from there to this forum, and put it in the right place. If something important is missing, let us know

2. This forum is open to folks with any type of pizza oven, brick oven or pizza stone.

3. We're here to enjoy wood-fired oven installation and cooking. Please be polite, and in keeping with the tone of group.

4. Our forum does not have moderators, though we are planning on adding them. If you are interested in signing up, please contact us.

5. Please don't promote any type of commercial venture or product.

That's it. Build, cook and be happy.

Hi James,
I really like this new format for the group! Although I'm really not computer saavy! Is everyone from the Yahoo group going to come over here and not use the yahoo group site anymore? I just want to make sure so I don't reply to people over there. Also, you mentioned all the past posts are coming over here. I really would like to reference those posts as I build this summer! I don't know what half of the icons on this page mean or how to use them but they're really colorful!! ( ok so I'm a computer dolt!) Anyway, I'm really looking foward to using this 'tool' as I build my Pompeii!!
Best to you, Rick

Hi Rick,

My plan is to have everything here. For a while, we can watch both places and make sure we aren't missing anything. I will keep copying postings from Yahoo to here under the name Yahoe-Archive, so we won't leave anything behind. I really like the idea that postings are organized by threads, so that you can look at building postings while you are building, and cooking info when you are cooking.

Make sure you select "email notification" under thread subscription, so you will know when new postings have been made. That's about it. I've never gone too far into the more escoteric configurations myself.

Will there be any pictures to access in this new site format? I don't see any 'buttons' to view archived pictures. HELP!

Good point. Would everyone be happy sending me photos, and having me post them on FB.com? Or, should I work out a way for people to post their own photos in a public section?

I don't think we need to have people post photos off the site, with links back from the forum. That isn't very efficient.

I am flexible on this, so let me know what everyone thinks.

James
