   Now that I'm home for the evening, I am going to make a clumsy attempt to save the Pet Thread.  FRANKIE has mentioned wanting to get to it, and for that I am so grateful that she would consider doing so.  FRANKIE, thank you,  you are a woman with such a kind. good heart.   

Let's see if I can do this using LINDSAY's methods. 

Thanks to all for the work you've done.  I am amazed by your determination and expertise!

55 pages of the Pet Thread...about 30 to go!   

UPDATE:  The entire Pet Thread is now saved.  Thanks so much to LINDSAY for the shortcut method!

Be back in the morning to start again.  Right now, this wooden chair has become very hard    and my wrist tells me I'd better stop for a while.

Just a quick update, I'm half way done with JNT05 and should finish it tomorrow. 

I'll then start JBT and hopefully we'll have time to get to SRHP too.

You will have as much time as you need.  It will be a month or so minimum before we convert.  I am waiting on the final versions of SMF and Tinyportal before moving.  Don't stress.

Thank you so much for this, Michael.  This should give us enough time.

Did I ever tell you how special you are? Whew!!

Thea! I am happy to hear the Pet Thread is saved!

Everyone is doing great - now if it will all transfer to the new site!!!!

I am about to get back to work - very happy to see Michael tell us how much time we have. My goal for the day is to finish 2006 and also save 2007 (ANN).

Thea! I am happy to hear the Pet Thread is saved!

Thanks, FRANKIE.   As I re-read "Claymaniacs:Introduce Your Pets" a couple of days ago, I saw so many pictures of pets that have moved on to Heaven and, more importantly, pet "mommies" who have left us, as well.  (Debi, LadyC, etc).  I knew I had to preserve those for all of us. 

I have to admit that at first I was feeling a bit cynical and quite resistant to the idea of everybody saving all of these threads, but over the past week my mellow and sentimental side started kicking in big-time!     Most of the time I put on a tough and practical persona, but that's not really who I am inside.  BUSTED!!! 

[wvclayfan]

Thea - I've become a bit sentimental as well saving these threads. Sometimes sad when I see the members who are no longer "active" and listed as guests. I sometimes forget that this isn't just a Clay site. It's all of us too.

So true, LINDSAY!  And we're looking forward to being just a little, teeny part of your upcoming wedding, as well!!!

ANN Update - June 2006-December 2006 Copied. Half of the ANN has been copied - I began on Page 80, and am now on Page 38.

EDIT - 4:35 p.m. January 1 2007 - March 31 2007 Copied. On Page 34 Now.

EDIT - 8:15 p.m. April 1 - June 30  2007 Copied. On Page 31

How true this is, Lindsay.  I have seen names I was not at all familar with and some names that I remember but they haven't been here in a while.  I really miss some of the people who are no longer here--maybe one day. . . . .

The biggest problem with getting everything copied is not to get distracted and start reading -- which is extremenly hard to do.

UPDATE - I have finished Critical Mass 3 & 4 today and, with the time frame Michael has set, it certainly should not be hard to get them all saved.

[Michael]

I posted this elsewhere but I will post it here.  Once you are ready to start transferring posts to the new forums,  you are more then welcome to.  ALL forums that are here are set up there verbatim (with the exception of the Adult Playground).  It looks more and more like the new forums will become permanent and not be wiped.

Any special instructions as to how to move them to the new site? I started saving by copying to Word, but switched to Lindsay's method of clicking on "Save As"  with the HTML.  I am having to save each of the ANN pages as a separate page  (numbering the pages 1,2,3 if there are that many pages with one date) - any way to get all of the pages with one date back to one post?

I will probably save all that I am going to save before moving anything to the new site.
