this site is constantly evolving and growing in many ways. We operate on a shoe-sting budget in a dwindling world economy and try and improve the experience through volunteer effort. We cannot hire state of the art graphic artists to bring more life and variety into our home away from Home. We rely on the amateur ingenuity and efforts of our members. One such member gives an inordinate amount of time and magic to our pages. She is an Administrator who selflessly gives not only of her administrative talent but also of her amateur artistic ability. She has been spending hours of her own priceless time attempting to bring this site out out of the brown and yellow world it is encased in. Though it may not be what would be interpreted by some as state of the art according to professional Graphic Artists.There is nothing professional about this site except the cost to our members. It is simply the combined creativity and effort of our members. While some choose to use their efforts to complain about what is done others are using their time to do and create an evolving unique experience that is us. I prefer to use my time to contribute in any way I can. I do not have the ability or the expertise needed to design web pages, I simply do other things to help out. I prefer to say Thank You Katy for your time and your efforts to bring us out of the drab brown and yellow world of Times Past.
That being said I invite others to contribute to this space their positive or negative thoughts on anything happening on Times Past. Please temper your negative responses with realistic suggestions and hopefully a volunteering of your own talents and time to enrich the experience of Times Past. In other words idle criticism is counterproductive, so please make your negative comments constructive. That is the current end of my thoughts and opinion. Now it is time for all of your comments for the membership to discuss. ------------- Rick (Site Administration).

Three cheers for Katy for all the hard work she puts in to make the site better. I appreciate it tremendously!
If other people want to step up as well, that'll be great, too--I can assure y'all that the last thing anyone needs is my own hopeless attempts at design cluttering up your monitors, so I will continue to donate my money rather than my artistic "skills". (My three-year-old goddaughter laughs at my attempts to draw, so.)
