Server Upgrades - Announcement Coming Soon!

You've been oh-so-patient, and we'll be ready to make an announcement tomorrow.

As many of you know, we're underway on significant upgrades to the computer systems that power the gallery and all of Splitcoaststampers. We'd promised that the upgrades would be complete in early November, and now that it's the 9th we're certainly stretching the definition of "early".

We're making final plans now for the cut-over to the new systems, and it may happen as early as this weekend - look for an announcement tomorrow of a firm date.

When we're ready, we'll take the site down for a number of hours to complete the final work. During that time, operation of the site will be permanently transferred over to our new systems, then we'll do some last testing and tweaking, and be ready to re-open the site on our new servers. Our temporary restrictions on gallery traffic will be removed shortly thereafter.

Thank you so much for your abundant patience and support during this time, it's been much appreciated. Here's to a new, and better, Splitcoast!

Well... my husband may add this to the reasons he believes I'm involved in a cult, but you and the SCS crew will be one of the things I am thankful for on this Thanksgiving Day. Don't ever think twice about taking longer to do it right the 1st time rather than rushing it and not getting it done properly. You guys are great!

I hope no one is getting you a hat for Christmas because I am sure it is not going to fit.
Seriously I love this site and have missed so much not being able to get into the gallery. Right now i cannot afford the club but I will be a member after the first of the year.
This is the place to be when my creative juices go dry. So much talent and such great advice from some awesome and talented people.
You should be so proud that because of you and your team that we little folks have a place to go for advice and inspiration.
Thanks from the bottom of my heart

Everyday I am so grateful that this site exists. Therefore I am so thankfui to and for ALL of you who make it happen everyday. You are a blessing to so many of us who rely on this site for ideas and business tips, and just the knowledge that someone else is just as addicted to stamping as we are. Thank you from the bottom, top, and middle of my heart.
