• 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.

SPYDERFEST ATTENDEES - EARLY ARRIVAL - ADD YOUR NAME TO THE POST.

Every year we have several Spyderfest attendees that head into town the weekend before the event.

Starting a new post for those people attending Spyderfest that plan to arrive early.

Provide your names, arrival date, and hotel/campground location and this will help all of us who want some social time together before the "Game Begins".

I am not tech savvy when it involves a list on Spyderlovers so if any one has that talent I would appreciate a hand in attaching a list to this post that can be updated.

Looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones at this years event.
