anyone used new canter site yet

Postby walaa » Wed Jul 22, 2009 7:49 pm

:? has anyone used the canter site since they have it up and running again? I find it a real pain in the butt copmpared to the old one. So far I cant even figure it out! No pictures, nothing, unless its because you have to sign up, register, log in and alot of other PITB stuff?? Now its a forum with topics and message boards? Just curious if its really easy can someone help me out, just seems like there are a bunch of steps to use it now, because I havent been able to see a picture yet! all the ads, but cant get photos to come up, thanks for help if anyone has been there yet

I think they are still trying to get everything back up and running. I think some of the pictures were there from before they had to rebuild so all the links aren't working properly.

oh great.. invite every teeny bopper looking for a horse to a message board like CANTERS.. I hope things stay civil.

I was kind of digging the CANTER facebook page. They showed each horse and you clicked on the photo for info. It kind of weeded out the ones whos conformation was worth passing over.

I hope things work out for the canter site and people soon. I imagine its stressful rebuilding from square 1 all over again.

The link on the color forum works well, just not many postings are back up yet, like you said, that MUST be tough having to redo everything, it just reads awfully funny if you go to the old link.

Why do they have to rebuild it? Did someone hack them?

I think I heard they got hit with a major malware meltdown.

Hope they can trace where it came from. That is pretty low down!

If you run a site and do not update the software on a regular basis sooner or later you will be targeted.
