  • I only wish we were on vacation!!! We’re working really hard at our day jobs, to be honest, hoping to spend ever-more time with Gone Raw. The updates will take about 24 hours, at least to get the “rough version” of the new site up. After that we’ll …
  • Oh, we do hear you. There’s lots of problems and tons of room for improvement. It’s coming. Nothing is for certain, but we’re shooting for this weekend. We’ve basically got a whole new version of the site written and ready to go. There will be lots …
  • Coming soon! Any day now with all the updates! Trust me, there will be big changes. You may get sentimental for this setup! :)

  • I know, there’s just so many problems right now… :( I mentioned this in another topic… but basically, we’re building a whole new system for Gone Raw, from scratch, which will be much much better than what we’re on here now. It should be up in a week…
    in web page color? Comment by Raymond
  • Well, we were having an issue with the pictures when we moved to the new system. I had to make a quick decision between them and I chose the smaller ones, the large ones were causing big issues. However, I will replace the big ones for the recipes a…
  • Slowly but surely, we’re getting the problems fixed… clr-1976 and drgonfly, that’s a weird problem. What web browser software are you using?
  • Yeah, thanks for the feedback, everyone! (And yes, you were warned!!!) We’re definitely keping an eye on these problems. My biggest concern is the missing discussions, for sure. It seems to me that when we had to overhaul the database to move to the…
  • Yeah, well, they are already up! Here are the big fixes: It’s faster. But you’ve already seen that… Things “paginate” better, which is totally geeky but handy, and… You can now add pictures to recipes you didn’t post! That last one is definitely t…
  • Thanks y’all. We seriously appreciate your kind words. It’s really unfortunate when someone comes along to spoil the party for all of us. We’re working on it!
  • Rawvan, please ease into things here. Having just joined, please wait a bit before telling others their questions are stupid and trying to start fights. Please cool it. Maybe lay back and listen to others for a bit. Thanks.

  • While we’re on the subject, it would be appreciated if 50% of your posts were not simply “LOL That’s hilarious!”. Please try to contribute, or we’ll politely ask you to move on.
  • The place is pretty darned good. I like it! It’s definitely the best option in Portland these days. Their cookbook is great, too!
  • We have noticed some issues with certain types of photos, but I haven’t been able to track down what’s causing it. Can you email me the photo and I’ll see if I can figure out what’s going on? Send it to rbrigleb (at) gmail.com if you can, and I’ll t…
  • This nice Making Kombucha video on Vimeo may help?
    in Kombucha Brewing Comment by Raymond
  • Yep, it’s just an artifact of the “textile” formatting method we use on here. Maybe there’s a way we can turn that off, because it’s kind of distracting and probably never intentionally used on here.
  • Dr. Bronner’s is the most fun to read!
    in What soap to buy? Comment by Raymond
  • Hi there. Ray here. :) You should be able to add or change the picture for your recipe at any time. I’m picking up a theme here. I shall look into these problems at my earliest available convenience. There should most certainly be a way to delete un…
  • Yeah, it’s the strangest thing. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Computers aren’t supposed to act that way. :) I think we still have our work cut out for us on this site…
  • Hm. I did notice that it was down for a little bit – maybe we’re not out of the clear yet. Bitt, were you able to post the picture? What was happening when you tried to?
  • Almost there! Please let us know if you discover other issues. There surely are some. Mostly I’m concerned that the new host is at least as fast – ideally, faster – than the old one. Can’t tell yet if that’s the case, I guess we won’t know until the…
  • Well, we’re making progress. Obviously, there’s still some kinks being worked out at the moment. :) Recipes don’t seem to work, and the pictures aren’t there yet. These should all hopefully be fixed within the hour. I’ll keep you posted!
  • Just to follow-up: we are in fact moving the site to our new host tomorrow – Wednesday, July 9th. Expect it to vanish around Noon (PST) and hopefully reappear by dinnertime. No promises – something always comes up!! But we’re hopeful that things wil…
  • Great!!! It has its moments. :)
  • Not sure if that’s sarcasm, but it was indeed down for the last half-day or so. :( Sorry. It’s a moody beast.
  • I think that’s a smart way to deal with it.
    in quitting the site Comment by Raymond
  • We’re thinking about both “best of” cookbooks and t-shirts. We’re not going to charge or have membership levels, for many of the reasons already discussed. In fact, we’re thinking about a way to hide ads for anyone with a membership – we’ll see! How…
    in Money for GoneRaw Comment by Raymond
  • You’re right, it’s still too slow. Every couple weeks we spend an afternoon working on the code, or hiring somebody to work on it, but the site keeps growing and for one obscure reason or another, it’s never as fast as I’d like it. We’re definitely …
    in slow site? Comment by Raymond
  • I make the Sweet-P Smoothie every morning, provided I have the fruit on hand!
  • Glad to have you around!
  • Just one final note about the update. Things went well, and a few more small changes here will make the site even faster now. We’re quite happy about that. However, a few of the images (for both recipes and for site members) will be “broken.” This i…
