Hi Sean.
I'm a brand new member here and saw your comment about "few" posts and posters. A couple of thoughts from someone who just walked in your door:
- Put up a "meet and greet" area where you ask members to just introduce themselves. This certainly isn't my idea, but one that is used on the DecoStop board http://thedecostop.com/forums/ . The meet and greet area tends to make newcomers feel more comfortable and welcome (as long as you and a few regulars make a habit of saying "welcome").
- Provide a URL to the forum area, right now the link brings up the forum area in a frame and unless you know how to look you can't tell what the URL is and bookmark it.
I expect I'll be spending a lot of time here so I look forward to learning more about the Ericson line and want to thank you in advance for hosting this board.
