As a SCBWI member and an active blue boarder, congrats to Verla and thanks to all who made this happen!

Wonderful! So happy to say good-bye to the old SCBWI discussion board, bet there won't be double and triple posts now:) Cheers Verla, for building such an amazing forum and letting us in!

[CarrieF Posts: 201 Status: Offline]

Woohoo! After a few false starts with my password, I made it. Congratulations to Verla and everyone who made this happen. I'm sure there are still transition issues being worked out, but I hope you can breathe a small sigh of relief. It looks great!

[Cathie Posts: 180 Status: Offline]

After several tries the SCBWI login finally accepted me! Yay! It's good to see the Blueboards back and a part of SCBWI! Right now there's a lot of wait time when trying to read topics and several notices that the server is not able to connect. I'm sure all the glitches will be ironed out soon!

Poor Josh is working around the clock on those very issues, Cathie, along with helping to get people onto the board that can't get in. (Yes, there are some still wandering around out there. We are doing our best to find you and get you aboard, people. Hang on to your life rafts!)

I feel like kissing my computer screen. I'm happy to have the blueboards back in my life  and the really cool emoticons too.  :jackolanturn: :

[SYoon Posts: 675 Status: Offline Novelty and Picture Books]

Happy to have made it in!  yay!!!   Hey... were there some new smileys added? These are new to me! Hilarious!

[macdibble Posts: 102 Status: Offline]

Well this is a surprise! I didn't realise a merger was afoot. Handy for those of us who are both SCBWIers and Blueboarders. Well done!

Poor Sarah though, she can't find the secret entrance. If she doesn't get in soon we're going to have to organise care packages to send to her on Twitter.

[KDuBayGillis Posts: 281 Status: Offline]

Yay for the new SCBWI Blueboards!  And yay for Mindy helping me get here when I obviously didn't follow directions very well before the switch. 

I think we were all feeling a bit lost without the Blueboards. Excited to see everyone here!

There's no place like home.  There's no place like home.

Thank you Verla, Lin, and Steve!!!

 

[lynnek Posts: 101 Status: Offline]

The boards are lookin' good! Thanks to all who've worked on the merger!

 

[JulieM Posts: 995 Status: Offline]

Thanks to Lin and Steve for the welcome, and Verla as always. These boards just keep getting better and better (and they were mighty fine in the first place)!

[Cynthia Kremsner Posts: 688 Status: Offline Author / Illustrator]

Looking good! Thank you all who were involved. Nice transition!

Thanks Lin and Steve and Verla!!! I'm happy to have found my way on here easily! SarahE did you make it yet?
