Hey and welcome everyone to our newly designed website! We hope you like it, there are still a few things to be tweaked here and there but it’s about time it was unveiled!

You can still get access to all the information from before using the links across the top of the page. This information will soon be undergoing a major refresh and update – so keep coming back! You can also still get the most up-to-date GLYNI event schedule, it is now over on the right of your screen, and PinkNews is still shown on the right too.
New features are aplenty – now, anyone can register for our blog, we want everyone to be able to submit their content and have it displayed proudly on our website. We will have members only discussion pages on various issues, with commenting enabled across all the posts you can leave your feedback on any of our articles as well as submit your own in a simple to use web interface – it’s just as easy as Facebook!

We hope these new features will make up for the temporary suspension of new registrations on our GLYNI Message Board / Forum. Unfortunately, it has been deluged by Russian spambots since this time last year… :( so I have taken the step of preventing new sign-ups. Current users can still access, and all the posts are intact – I removed all the spam (I think!). I will keep it this way until we make a decision on where to go from here with the forums. In the meantime, you have plenty of ways to make your voice heard!

Contribute!

“So Matt, how do I contribute?” I hear you ask? Couldn’t be easier! Firstly, comments are enabled on all pages and posts, meaning you can leave your feedback either anonymously or, if you want people to know who you are ;), you can register for a GLYNI account by using the link *on the right*!

What does registering get you? Well it means that no-one can pose as you in discussions of course :P! If you also have a Gravatar account associated with your email address, your avatar will be shown on comments you make and, in the future, posts you make.
Speaking of posts, did I mention that registered members can submit their own articles, reviews, posts, thoughts, announcements and much more, AND have it displayed right on our homepage? Not only that, but as the website grows, members will gain access to the members only discussion pages, where we could discuss anything and everything?

It really is an exciting new chapter for our website, one which we hope that you will help us create – so sign up now!

Peace out!
-Matt

Everything SHOULD be working, however, with our web hosts still taking their time over the issues I have informed them about, the site may go a little slow (like the boards) until I get them to fix this issue.

Once again, welcome to the new GLYNI site!

New stuff:
Well, this blog for one! Which, I promise, will have regularly updated content, from articles, to news, to GLYNI events, even random thoughts and political stuff, every so often!
The forums have a facelift to match the site.
Loads of new and updated content, with more to come (some I still haven’t received – YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE PEOPLE!). Check the links to see whats new, and check back regularly, it’ll change again soon!
The calendar in the upper right is a new feature where you can all keep track of what’s goin on in GLYNI on a week-to-week basis. This will be updated as often as necessary.

Finally, I don’t want this blog to just be me talking over and over again. If you wanna volunteer to contribute an article etc every so often, please, get in touch with me, I would like as much variety of opinion and colour to the blog as possible!

Peace out!
