Kevin, I sent you a private message in the chat system about memberships... Can you see it?

Thanks for the nudge Andy. Before your arms get too tired... Final line up: @zachprism01 @Mikelp3586 @Mike Klaiber @cerfvoliste @elmo264 @Kevin Wehner @Materdaddy And our winner is... Congrats to @Kevin Wehner! Kevin, just send me a private message or private chat to make arrangements for the memberships. And of course, it's now your turn to pay it forward... Let me know if you need any help setting up the new drawing, pleased to help!

Hmmmm, no submissions as of yet... Anyone have a draft done up? We're dying for some new team apparel and have nothing to put on it! Last thing we need a naked kite team, after all...

Direct order, shipped straight from the KL office. Link will be in here when they're available... http://kitelife.com/forum/store/

I was able to download and install a trial version of ArrowChat and it feels good so far... http://kitelife.com/forum/member-chat/ Seems to check off all the major concerns?

Hi folks, Long overdue, we're finally getting proper KiteLife stickers and will add them to the shop very soon! Just under 4-1/2" wide, die cut, UV resistant white vinyl... Should be $1.50 each plus shipping. Now available for purchase! http://kitelife.com/forum/store/product/55-kitelife-sticker-uv-vinyl/

Ok guys, I've found another chat platform that I think will do the job... https://www.arrowchat.com/demo/ Group chat with ACTIVE USER LIST Single login forum / chat The link above will allow you to easily demo the software in action (desktop and mobile), let me know what you think!

I understand and appreciate the new chat works for a few, but it falls short overall. The refund process has been initiated, and I am already in the process of: 1 - reactivating the old chat (for the 2 weeks until it expires) 2 - removing Comet Chat from the forum system

*groan* Still talking with Comet Chat support but it's looking more and more like I might be taking them up on the 30 day refund policy, particularly the bit about being able to see a list of ACTIVE users while using the group chat... It doesn't appear to be a feature now, but I'll know for sure very soon. Still researching other alternatives, but not seeing a lot - any suggestions are certainly welcomed.

The WM is fairly silent, but you can loosen the leech line in the trailing edge to make it buzz a bit more.

All feedback being noted, not ignoring - this is just lower on my priority list right now, hope to make all major (and possible) improvements within the coming 2 weeks. Thanks all!

I love mine, it's a beauty.

Pretty sure he can make them without TE vents upon request? I don't know for certain.

It's ok to post other forum links when it's of benefit to the fliers here, FYI.

Ok, we need a good kite related sound for this... How can I change the alert sound on incoming messages? == There may also be some useful changes that can be made here... https://support.cometchat.com/documentation/php/faq/how-do-i-re-size-and-change-the-position-of-cometchat-bar-on-my-site/ == Mostly just thinking out loud here for later reference or discussion.

I will say, doing the suggested mods sure extends the life of a kite, like a LOT. http://kitelife.com/forum/store/category/7-rev-upgrades/ Got 8 more sails on the table for folks right now, that will make 20 or so I've worked on so far.

Nope, that's just chat admin. FYI for folks just tuning in, the chat is indeed up and working... Full page - http://kitelife.com/forum/kl-chat-desktop/ It should also follow you as you cruise around the forum, in a format similar to Facebook's messenger (appears in bottom right of any other forum page)... Still tweaking and refining, all feedback is welcome!

Connect URL is Kitelife.com/forum/, got as far as a user /pass prompt but it didn't work with my forum login as I'd expect.
