Curtoid,
This is the 4th time you have asked the EXACT same question on the COW forums in the last couple of days. Some are live, others I have shut off to cull the noise.
When I wrote you regarding this, the email account was bad and so I have killed the “Curtoid” account.
If you create a new account, please be aware that we watch IPs of problem accounts and will shut-off access from your individual log-in IP if you persist in this kind of thing again.

No need for apologies, I have made many mistakes. But when I married Kathlyn, she fixed most all of them.
It has kept her really busy. ;o)

There is an entire article in the latest issue of Creative COW Magazine featuring James Madison University and how they are using Intensity to feed HD monitors in their editing labs.

[JoNuggs] “I posted that kind of in a caffeine-induced, jittery haze…”
Hello Joe,
I am sorry to disagree with you but there is no such thing as a “caffeine-induced, jittery haze.” That is what happens, shall we say?, outside of those “caffeine moments.”

One of the ways over the years that we have kept the COW as high a signal level as we have, is that we have not allowed users to edit or remove their posts. There is a clear reason for this: In far too many sites that we have seen which allow users to edit themselves, there are always the ones who make big claims or said idiot things and when they get called on it, they edit it out and leave the follow-up replies looking out of context and quite unfounded.
We like responsibility, it’s a good thing and so while we do have edit ability on the drawing board and have been working on adding it soon, it will come in a limited version that only allows users to edit in the first 20 minutes or so or until someone replies. Then it’s locked and can’t be edited.
We give people a way to preview their posts and see them before posting and so it’s not been a huge priority for us.
Sorry if you think us back in the Dark Ages of the Net but we have too many jobs on the plate to give this one much of a priority.
Regards,

The podcasts, as Dave suggests, are a good solution to this. You can get to them by visiting https://www.creativecow.net/podcasts

Yeah, what Dave said…

I appreciate the kind words, thank you. It was a lot of work but we really wanted this issue to open people’s minds to what is happening in this industry right now and to give them some examples, tools and means, along with some ways that people can take advantage of this huge opportunity.
I am glad that you liked it. Thank you again for the kind words.

I forgot to mention that if you don’t like one of our interfaces, try one of the two others we support. You can change the way the interface behaves by using the “Display Posts As…” pulldown found just below the host pictures on any of our forums.
We support three popular styles of presenting the posts: one, our default threaded view; next, the topical view that many prefer; last, a date-centric presentation that pulls the posts from their threads and presents them based on when they are made.
Next week, the interface changes but the core functionality and the various modes of presenting the data will remain a part of the new interface.
