    I can use help. If anyone wants to write something i will post it on the site. If anyone has suggestions for layout i am open to suggestions. my idea would be to have a simple and clean look that is easy to navigate.

    I propose a suggestion.

    I would like to offer website hosting again. However, this time... I want to provide a better product: the very same platform as rcnc.

    You will be given a fresh site which you guys can completely customize from the comfort of your web browser (IE, firefox, etc); without any programming, ftp'ng, setup, or fuss. You would write web pages much like you currently write forum posts. How easy is that?

    -- Ok, so I suck at selling. Seriously though, if you want to reduce the amount of effort in both setup and maintenance... you really can't go wrong. I'll get it setup, I'll host your domains, If you have problems you call me... All you have to do is write content.


    I'm not opening this offer up to anyone else yet. I want to work out the details with only one site to worry about.

    If you are interested,
    The first month is free, $5/mo after that
    Domains are $10/yr (I'll supply a nabs.rcnavalcombat.com for free)
    & personal email is available; if you are interested... PM for more details.

    Thanks Justin, I think this worth looking into! We could probably have something going quicker, if all the nause is looked after for us.

    OK, let me know soon, I want to find one (and only one) club to try this with.

    Just so you know, I could have it up and ready-to-edit in 24 hours. I'll even throw in some training time (with me!) on how easy it is to set up! ;) ---OK, so I suck at selling.

    We could give it a shot. I am the owner of the two domains that NABs uses so it won't be a problem directing them to this site. Just drop me a line

    Ok, so I have your new website ready.

    Tell me who wants to be your admins + site designers; then they need to PM me for details. I'll probably need to do some form of training session.

    http://nabs.rcnavalcombat.com

    If you want to migrate your old URLs, please contact me as to how.

    Hey Justin for now could you put BB 26 and myself for the NABS forum moderators, if anything changes we will let you know. Paul as you have handled the web sites up to this point you are a good choice to admin the web site.
