A new section has been added called "Other Ships".  If you want to add links to other ships' web sites, use the "Submit Weblink" button (after you've logged in).  Note that the link you submit will not show up until it is "approved".  The "approval" process is a "built-in" feature of the site software that will likely get removed.

We've had nice growth lately, attaining 100 members about a week ago, and currently adding a person every day or two.  What that means is, the site admin has to get a little busier on things like member search functionality (which is pretty much useless at the moment), and so forth.

The original reunion organizer seems to have become inactive; if any of you San Diegans want to put a reunion together for next summer (since that's the popular idea), feel free.  The Midway (now a floating museum) would probably be a good place to have a dinner, etc.

The site has had a major software upgrade, mainly for security purposes.  If you notice anything that doesn't work or is goofy, please let the site admin know (use the Contact Us button).   Believe it not, the site gets a fair number of hack and/or spam attempts, mostly coming from ex-Communist Bloc countries by way of Korea. It's nearly always the automated type of attack, i.e., a script/program they are running against any site using this particular software.  So far, they've managed only a couple of successful message board spams which were quickly deleted and a couple of  modifications were made to make sure they are never successful again.  Guess those ex-commies have too much time on their hands. 

The thing you never read is now available in the cruisebooks gallery, courtesy of Jon Hackworth.  It actually interesting to look through now though.

 In case you are new to the site, the way to see the full size, easily (very) readable Cruisebook, Tendergram, & Welcome Aboard pages is to just click on them until they go full screen, which is two clicks overall.  Once to go from the thumbnail to the intermediate image, and once to go from the intermediate image to the full size image (which is bigger than the screen).

If anyone is interested in downloading entire Cruisebooks, Tendergrams, etc., in one big file, let us know.
