That sounds great, Ski!

What app are you using on your site now, John? WordPress?

The entire OGR Web Site is based on WordPress.

It was a toss up between Word Press and Wix Rich

My daughter thought Wix would be easier for me, so that is what we are putting up. Mrs. 'Ski will be away this weekend so I'll have time to familiarize myself with it

So, the new site is up! I look forward to sharing more of Warrenville with you, as well as miscellaneous thoughts.

It will be refined, and more new photos added to the Gallery as time goes on. It's only been 4 days since it was set up.

Check out my Blog Posts - I added new stuff and you can now add your comments.

As I can now make additions and changes myself, I'm gonna try to keep the site fresh by adding new Blog posts about once a week too.  Check it periodically for my new words of wisdom (LOL).

At this time I ask a few things of you:

If you find any issues with the new site please email me. My email address is in my profile.

Comment on the Blog posts if you are so inclined, but PLEASE keep all comments train related.

I have a bunch of Blog post subjects in mind, but if there is a subject you'd like me to address please let me know too - either here or via email.

Much appreciated

The new Website looks great!  I made a login and left a couple comments!!  I still have a lot more to look at, but wanted to tell you it looks great!

Thanks Mark, I can always count on you for an encouraging word. Was the login process as simple as I was told it would be?

I'm having fun planning and working on this - as you know, I love projects

Well, there's one little problem.

So, I click on the photo...

It gets smaller!

I did that on purpose, John - LOL Just testing you guys

The pics that were transferred from the old site act weird, the new ones are A-OK (I think)

Well, I guess I failed the test.

You passed it with flying colors John - you picked up on it and let me know

Well, if you look at it that way...

New words of wisdom were posted on the site today

I am not seeing the entire "title"... it is shifted off to the left such that I only see the word 'Railroad'.  I use Google Chrome. Hope this helps.

Thanks Chessie.

I know that it looks fine in Microsoft Edge and on a Mac platform. I'll have to do some research as to why Google Chrome may have this issue, this is the first I've heard.

Other than the issue with the title, does everything else look OK?  I hope that you enjoyed perusing it, keep an eye out for new content.

IMHO, a good part of this hobby is about sharing.

I've been having great fun frequently posting to my new site over the last month or so. If you have not visited it lately check my words of wisdom (LOL) out and, should you be so inclined, I'd be thrilled to see your comments there too.

Hey, @Lionelski. This isn't a major issue, but one thing I noticed is that when you click to the gallery, the address is https://www.warrenvillerailroad.com/blank, which I assume is probably not what you intended.

Also, you might want to edit the settings on your OGR page so that your signature is included in new posts by default. That way more people will see your website.

Thanks for the input bigboy25

I just opened the gallery on my PC (Microsoft EDGE), on my laptop (Google Chrome) and on my I Phone with  no problems. I know very little about computers but maybe you need to clear Cache or something - this seems to be the default suggestion people tell me when I have issues like yours.

I know that there is an issue with some Gallery pics not enlarging when they are clicked on - these are the pics that we migrated over from my old website. I gotta get around to deleting these and replacing them with updated new ones.

In the meantime I'm having fun playing with trains and posting to the site. Did you find time to review the posts to date? Any suggestions for future content?

Also appreciate your comment about editing my signature on the forum - I'll address this this morning.

Have fun and stay safe,
