A word of explanation. There will be some new members joining who are from out state. This is not a change of our general residency requirements.

I have been running woodworking-galleries.org for a while. But I have decided to shut it down becuase it is too lightly used to be worth the time ot money to do anything with it.

However, it wouldn't be fair to those people who are using it to simply kill the site. So what will happen is those who choose to, can have their pictures moved to this site. At first I thought I would just retstrict them to use of the photo gallery, but I had second thoughts and I hope we will welcome them as honorary NCers.

A fair compromise Steve. Besides, after appreciating the greatness of NCWWer they may choose to relocate here

Noticed one was from Wa state. A cross-country North Carolina Woodworker express would Really be somethin'!! (I have a sister in Portland, OR, so it IS within the realm of possibility ) Nice of you to offer them an alternative.

Go

Oh gosh. Is there a chance that someone from other than NC might have encountered a problem, and solved it, that we tarheels (it hurts me to use that term [go pack] and notice the lower case ) couldn't solve, and they read the post and suggest the remedy...And we didn't let them guide us?

Questions? I have many. A wise man accepts all answers, and acts upon the best.

Of course, they'll probably come from NCWWers, but who nose?

http://www.forums.woodnet.net/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=2917767&page=0&view=colla psed&sb=5&o=

How will you inform the affected members?

George, all the affected members of Woodworking -galleries have been sent an e-mail explaining the situation and offering them membership here for the photo hosting and fellowship. That is why we've had so many new members from other regions recently.
I posted a reply with that information on WN, I am sure Steve will do likewise.

I would like to thank you for the invitation to join this great forum. I have visited several times in the past, and was disappointed that I could not be a member. I consider it an honor to be invited, and have received a warm welcome from several members.
