Hi Everyone!
I wanted to take this short time to personally thank each and every one of you for sticking with us during this trying time- site transition. I also want to give a warm 'Yea Man' to all our Charter Member's, without your investment in our future the PCCA/FordPinto.com could not be as far as it is today. Your commitment to the site and it's admins has provided us the opportunity to grow and meet the Pinto Communities needs to a greater degree.
Thank You Charter Members! Thanks very much!!
Because of the Joomla database failure on the transition and my work to 'restore' our existing site I took this opportunity to move in a completely different direction alltogether. The old site existed with a tempermental balance between dissimilar script writers bridged together with software that was for the most part stable but also dictated how we could grow and expand. We were running with the 'Cadillac' of internet portals with most if not all options before us, the only probelm it was too much for the site to grasp and contend with. We are now running a MUCH simpler portal (SMF/Tiny Portal) that will meet us at our present point of growth and allow us to grow (within boundries) further as time progresses. Think of us NOW driving the 'Pinto' instead of the Cadillac.
I also want to extend my personal yea man to all the Admins who have stood by me, the site and the downtime we all experienced. I think everyone here knows that without them, we would be dead in the water. I would also like to say Thanks to my brother Geoff Hamilton, aka 'Spike'. He is the graphics genius behind our WEB Hosting company and he has always supported my infatuation, affliction with our Dad's Pinto until this day.
Join us for this exciting time ahead and more growth, more new faces, more meets, more of everything!
If we can come this far, how far can we go in the next 2 years?
To everyone, God Bless and a VERY Warm welcome to your new home,
Scott Hamilton
