this is a prelease. look and feel could change. I am looking at testing functionality.
there are a few prerequisites for testers.
1. must be computer literate and know how to find & upload photos from your computer.
2. I would to give preference to donors of the new registry
3. must have photos of your boat to upload.
4. All issues are to be sent to me by privatemail and are not for public consumptio.
5. EVERYONE ELSE CAN LOOK BUT DO NOT SUBMIT YOUR BOAT YET. ;-)

WWW.DONZI.NET/REGISTRY

PEOPLE WHO WANT TO TEST PLEASE REPLY TO THIS POST.
The new registry is keyed to your email address. MAKE SURE IT IS CORRECT OR YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EDIT YOUR REGISTRY PAGE.

I might be just bit slow in responding to inquiries because i am in the hospital with the flu and pneomonia. Though I do appreciate the good thoughts, I am doing just fine so lets not make this a get well soon thread. Thanks!

The link should be http://www.donzi.net/registry/

The original was missing the ending / .

This is what I do for a living so I can test as needed.

First thing that is functional but is a big no no is emails are mailto: links and can be crawled. Probably should at least make them nothing unless a user is logged in so we don't get spammed.

If you need any help with testing code/database/etc. just let me know.

That registry is WAY out of date. I updated mine and added pics. Look under Chamberlain, Carl to see. :)

Thanks Ed.

Scot, could there be some way of cross referencing screen names with real names so that say I want to look at "jl1962's" boat, I would know where to look.

I did it that way because some people like the this. you can email them though.

Scot, a screen name to real name link would be really nice.

I just tried to look up SanDogDewey’s boat, and when I went to his profile, it only has his name as Patrick, which I couldn’t find in the registry, because I don’t know his last name.

There are actually very few people whose last names I DO know, and I have been on here since 2006.

The flip side on that is people may not want their names out there, except where they choose to share them. Worth considering, I think.

Mike, I understand. Perhaps it makes more sense to list boats by people’s screen name only. I’d love to see pictures of Maddad’s boat, but I don’t know (and didn’t look, so forgive me if his name actually IS in his profile) his name.

Signed,

Sterling M. Archer :)

Due to privacy reasons, a screen name and real name will not happen. If you want to get their screen name email them. So no more comments on the registry page?

That is understandable, other than through this thread, where is the link to it?

HM, I'm already on the registry. If I submit new info and pictures will it edit the existing entry or will there now be two for me and my boat? The e-mail addy that appears with the old listing hasn't been used for almost ten years and I'd like to make it all current. Getting the ex's name off there would be a bonus too.
Thanks for everything you do for this place.

My email address was old as well. I changed it under "Settings".

I cant seem to add pictures. Other than that it was a piece of cake.

Hi SDD, my e-mail in the settings is my current one. The one listed with my name and hull number on the registry is from when I first listed the boat there ten or so years ago. That's the one I'd like to change.

Scot, I entered my boat info OK. When I returned to add info, I hit the Edit button. When the screen comes up for some reason the boat name and zip code and blank and have to be re-entered. Also, there is a comma between my first name and last. Thanks for the work.

Weird, when I changed mine in settings, it changed it in the registry. Must be a few more bugs to work out.

Maybe I need to try. I haven't actually changed anything since the new registry is on line.

was having a few issues with uploading pics, seemed it was due to using IE on my laptop, tried Chrome and it worked fine not sure could be just the version of IE on my laptop. I have issues with some websites chrome works or doesn't so then i try IE and it does the same so when i visit certain sites i need to pick and choose what browser to use.

thanks HM

OK, Those of you that had problems uploading photos. Can you give me more info about the file such as file size etc? You can email them to me if you would like.
