Sorry Todd. Let me try again.
Supposition: Change the first/topmost page of www.lugnet.com to something that
beginners might not be so daunted by, as Kevin Salm suggests, and Tony
Priestman and Bram Lambrecht concer with. You decide that this is also a good
idea, to make it more appealing to those less experienced.
Proposition: If the change occurs, you could mirror the existing topmost page,
(the one currently at www.lugnet.com,) to something that we experiance lugnet
users would not have to wade through the begginer page/(s) to get to. Say
something like, www.lugnet.avanced.com, or some such thing as that. That is
what I meant to say in my previous posting.

Is that a bit clearer? I hope so, because sometimes I know what I want to say
and it doesn't always come out right.
Rich

Which page is that?  Do you mean the traffic page?

and we could just come up like normal.

Come up like normal?


Well, we'll have to change our bookmarked link, but that would be it.

You lost me here.  :)  What bookmarked link?


How much space would that take up for the Lugnet server?

Oh, don't worry about space on the server.  Could easily allocate 100 MB
to a welcome guide!  :)
