• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Does anybody know how to change their name on this forum. Kaos has gone to a better place and I need to change my forum name and avatar.

Thanks in advance.

Lew,

Sorry to hear that Kaos has left us! I can't help with the name change, but hope all is well!

Lew, I don't know how to change your forum name without losing the history (maybe someone else can weigh in on this). But, that picture of you and your wife (sorry, forgot her name) on the turnout on Sonora Pass Road would make a great signature block pic I think. Maybe the pic of you at Ebbets Pass for an avatar? You look pretty happy in both.
 
Sorry for the loss of your friend. Our thoughts and :pray: go with you.

Send the boss a PM. He is currently on the board. :yes:

I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. Lamonster can change your forum handle for you. Just let him know what you like. It will probably change the log-in ID as well.

If you're not getting another dog soon, how about keeping your handle as a tribute to Kaos?
 
Lew, My condolences on Lew's departure, I gotta say, the Avatar and pics you posted of him lightened my day, and my heart.

Lew, I'm such a dolt. I didn't realize your dog's name was Kaos. I agree with others - maybe keep your avatar or your name or both, unless it's too painful a reminder of your loss.

My condolences on the loss of your beloved Kaos. The passing of those furry family members can hurt just as much as human ones. Sending you love and light...

Thank You

Thank you all for you kind thoughts and condolences. Kaos was last of the 7 Great Danes that we have had. He wasn't the fastest ( but he was fast), He wasn't the biggest ( but he was big ). He was affectionate and quite the " Leaner" as Danes tend to be. Nova and I will miss him a lot.

To quote a very smart man:

I may keep the handle but the avatar has to go.

Sorry to hear...

Have lost quite a few and know how hard it is. I now only allow visitors but will not get another..hope the memories will help you adjust to the change and be able to move on. 😔

the avatar you can change in settings left side you will see avatar. Pick a new one and upload it...:thumbup:
 
Terribly Sorry.....

I have lost 2 pets in my life....and they were both more family members than animals. I'm still not sure I'm over losing Cisco, my Siberian Husky. I just try to remember the good times and how well they lived when they were in my care (or, perhaps I was in their care?). It's about all you can do.

Condolences....

Every time we lose one of our furry family members I have the same thoughts as you posted.....until I realize that there are so many animals out there that need the great home I can give them. Somehow that always results in a re-population.
 
I sometimes post this when there is a loss of a pet. Warning, it will bring tears to your eyes.


Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge. When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge. There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor. Those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent. His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

So sad

Lew,
my deepest condolences for your loss. Your friend was blessed with you, and I’m sure only knew love and affection. They live so fast, and are gone too soon. Our boys are rescues, and I think they know they won the dog lottery - we spoil them daily!! You did, too, and Kaos showed. It hurts, but gets better with time. Still sux.....

Easy. Send a PM to Lamont and ask him to do so. All your posts and such stay the same. References to your handle inside other posts do not change. I had him change mine from WasWinger to IdahoMtnSpyder a couple of years ago.

The avatar you change yourself.

Or, re-pupulation maybe?! I can relate.
