• We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

We need a scrolling banner at the top of the main page

to alert everyone of what the current most serious threat to our 2A rights is at the moment and what to do (who to contact) about it.

Right now, I would say that this would be the Eric Holder nomination, so the scrolling banner (large enough to catch the eye) would read something like "DEFEAT THE HOLDER NOMINATION! HERE'S HOW", which, when clicked on, would give people the link to click on for the GOA alert ( http://gunowners.org/take-action.htm ) it would also urge everyone to both FAX and PHONE their Senators (in this case) by giving them THIS link: http://www.theorator.com/senate.html as well as the FAX and PHONE numbers for the Committee involved (if it's IN committee, of course) like: http://judiciary.senate.gov/contact.cfm

We need the same scrolling banner on every single PRO-2A website we can talk into doing it. Pete

NO WE DON'T!
Moving crap on a computer screen annoys the heck out of me and seriously distracts my reading.

I dont think it is that bad of an idea although I am sure the VCDL alerts will take care of this as well.

As far as moving crap being annoying I agree but look at the ads and such they are going to be there for funding if for no other function so why not have one that is functional other than funding.
