Nothing will ever replace the Serif forums of yesteryear, but here’s hoping we can keep at least a little of its community spirit alive. If you have any suggestions for additional forum categories, please post them here.
Thank you Alfred for setting this up. Cheers Vicki
Hi, Vicki, and thanks for signing up. I’m glad to see that you’re able to post here without any obvious problems.
I hope you don't mind me asking, Just as a thought my husband is currently working out replacing his laptop with an all dancing all singing desktop PC for intensive video editing. Do you know any member in the Lounge Forum who is specification savy that could comment on the build he has been quoted on so far? Cheers Vicki
Albert and Eric both do large amounts of video editing, so I imagine that either of them should be well placed to advise you. I don’t know whether they’re going to join us here, but you could post a new topic in case they or others with relevant knowledge turn up in the near future.
The invitation is a good way into a thread.
Perhaps a new thread in the Serif Lounge specifically about this forum would be a good idea.

I am ever hopeful that this grand opportunity to keep in touch with our well established friends will prosper, and suck-in a good number of our golden oldies and fresh posters, too.
Thank you, Alfred, and may your endeavours flourish!
Thank you, Alfred. I tend to lurk a lot online nowadays, but will surface occasionally. I certainly like the opportunity to keep in touch. 
Bugrit - just noticed I haven't capitalized my first name, which is going to drive me mad. 
Any way I can change it, or do I need to delete and re-register?

Good to see you here, Jack! I expect we’ll mostly see ‘golden oldies’, but fresh posters will be most welcome.

Welcome, Karen! I haven’t really delved into the finer details of PunBB, but although it’s touted as a lightweight forum I’d be surprised if I can’t change members’ usernames. I’ll scurry off and investigate now, before I forget!!
Edit: All done. Every bit as easy as it should be.

Yay! Thank you.
Yay! Thank you.
¡De nada! 
Thanks for this site Alfred. I'm always amazed at the breadth of knowledge displayed on Community Plus and enjoy reading it daily; it will be missed now that we geezers have been kicked to the curb (kerb).
So I'm looking forward new discussions, debates and minor flame wars here. Damn the spammers though.

Vicki - Suggest John post on the Vegas forum and MovieStudioZen forum for advice on his editing pc. I note he's already posted on the latter and Dr Zen has responded.

Welcome, Eric! Good to see you here.
I hope people will recognise me as jacksjacobs in a previous incarnation.

Well, Jack, you said it!
Hi Jack
Actually for me "jacksjacobs" carries more mana than "jackneve". Which reminds me you never answered a question I asked way back. Did you have relatives that lived in London SE24?
Alfred - we need a name for this forum. How about "The Serif users retirement home"?
Serif's decision is no surprise, but a little disappointing none the less. I wonder is Patrick (at least) will join us here.

Agreed on both counts, Geoff! However, I’m pleased to see you here.

Time will tell.

(1) jackneve is like fishn'chips. I really wanted to use jayesjay which preserves my name initials without ready identification of my full name.
(2) I don't think I have any relatives in the SE24 area. One family near Orpington.

I can alter it for you if you like, but I seem to remember that you originally signed up to CommunityPlus as ‘jayesjay’ and then asked Patrick to change it! I don’t imagine that ‘her indoors’ will mind either way.
