I am writing today to acknowledge that The Studio’s recent Forum & Gallery recovery and update has not gone as smoothly as we’d hoped. We know that many of you are having withdrawals and are wondering if it will ever be back online. We would like to apologize to those of you who have experienced frustration while waiting to get back into the swing of things.
Our long-term goal is to provide you with a better online experience, stability, and more customized capabilities and services. The short-term reality is that we’ve got some bugs to work out.
We have invested in a fantastic new forum & gallery software that allows for a more robust, vibrant community! As you can imagine, the conversion of all this data from several different sources has been complex. We had hoped for a seamless transition. Unfortunately it is taking more time than we anticipated, again, we apologize.
One of the values we have here at The Studio is commitment. A team of deeply-dedicated staff members has worked tirelessly on the implementation and trouble-shooting of our new system. We truly believe that this solution will – eventually – be something that enhances your relationship with The Studio and make it easier for you to engage with us in all the ways you want.
In the short term, we are grateful for your patience and we would like to offer another little Thank You for bearing with us. Please download part 5 of This Cups on Us by clicking the links below:
thank you so much.
Thx so very much. Love this kit so far. I look 4ward to you all reopening your forum. This is one out of 3 top sites, that I enjoy visiting. I had stopped coming here due to issues @ hand, I knew someone must of hacked your site, or something, as it just didn’t look right. I had even taken a screen shot of it, having to scroll down real far to access the threads. I’m waiting in the background, to return to this wonderful site.
No worries, it will all work out. Your designers are terrific, your newsletter is great, it is a warm site. We will still be here when it is fixed. And thank you for the generous goodies!
These things can’t be helped sometimes…just the way life works! Thank you for the freebie.
Hugs,
Joyce
Thank you all so much for “This Cup”.
Do I miss the regular Studio things we used to have? Sure do. But, you know what? When all is back up and running smoothly, we’ll be back, too, and pick right up where we left off. Meanwhile, as you all work tirelessly to get to that point, those of us “out here” can rest or carry on with scrapping all those memories.
May the Lord bless each one of you.
Thanks for the update. And good luck with restoring the forum and gallery. I am sure it will be worth waiting for
