Um, what's a hosting account?

I noticed the changes that were made to the home page. Do you have more changes in mind?

(On either the 15th or 16th we broke the record for new users that was set in November. We might wind up with twice as many new users this month as last month.)

We host our site with a company called SupaNames. We are upgrading the package that we subscribe to.

That first stage of our server upgrade has now been completed.

Initially, it seems that any errors caused by the upgrade have been limited to two areas of the site: Polls and our Shop.

If anyone finds any other problems with the site, please make sure you tell us by posting here so that we can put them right.

Kind regards,
