I wonder if anyone ever used the New Stitches Forum ? Being a computer illiterate I found that site easier to navigate than most but today it post Not Available so it looks like it may have been killed. Any information anyone ? posted from a cold New Zealand Winter morning

Re: other forum
Hi Lilybit, sorry I have no idea about the site you are asking about but I am sure someone will know. What part of NZ do you live in please - sounds like it is the South Island if it is" a cold winter morning"? I originally come from Christchurch but moved to Aus to be nearer family 10 years ago. I was recently back in ChCh and even as far south as Queenstown, Arrowtown and Wanaka - great tobe amongst my mountains.

Hi Lillybit!!
I found the same thing....I wondered if it had gone belly up.
I don't have facebook but I've sent you a P/m on this site ...look at the top of the page and it'll tell you that you have a message. click on that and then you will find a message with my email and details.
I wouldn't want to lose you either!!!

I saw WWs reply and thankfully noted her email because I've since lost it and every effort to find it again has taken me to yet another place - told you I was computer stupid - you want to see what happens if i cut loose with a cell phone !!!
Re: other forum
Sent you and WW a pm. Seems so sad to have lost the NS forum, although I guess it was only a matter of time.
Perhaps we should set up a group --- open to all New Stitches readers now bereft!

I've contacted Stitch Direct, the partner site, asking if they can help the Refugees from New Stitches.
Sad though it is I think that after the demise of the New Stitches publication we've been hanging on by a thread since and it was inevitable that it went belly up!

Hi, Wendy. I have registered. Thanks for the info.
BTW, does one have to login every time one wants to reply or post?

Re: other forum
Once you've logged in then you can reply to any post you want. Look out at the top of the page for messages to you and you can also see what new messages are up since you last logged on. If you just want a quick look without logging in then you can see active Posts, but to reply to anything then you must log in.
There are lots of different sections on the index page too. Best to surf around a bit just to get the feel of it all.

Once you have 10 posts you can look at the galleries, and set up your own if you've a mind to.
We also, this being a slightly bigger forum, have a pub -- the Stash & Grab -- connected by a revolving door to our hospital (St Cross Stitchers). There is also a treehouse in the garden by the loch.

We also have a virtual couch which we can pull up to watch someone doing a design which 'speaks' to us individually - very comfortable it is too.

Re: other forum
Anytime you have a question about navigating through our forum, please don't hesitate to ask us. I asked questions about everything I'm sure, from what different icons meant to how to add links. Please don't stay away because you aren't sure of how to move around here. And also feel free to pm me or one of the other mods (Serinde, karen4bells), or some of the members you were also in your previous group. I am sure they will help. Looking forward to getting to know you!
