OK, we need to record levels of interest. If you are serious in wanting to join in AND will be able to join in on the proposed Sunday evenings, ***EUROPEAN EVENINGS**** Record your interest on this web page please:

I will feedback the level of interest and keep all those who have shown an interest informed as to what's happening.

This time slot isn't forgotten, it takes a while to get a new event running, and won't happen over night.  But I am working on something so keep up the interest.

This is such a naturally favorable time slot for me, had I not been picking the wife up from the hospital today I might have put a snapshot up just for something relaxing to do.

Nothing clever here.  Please, move along.

Let's see how many people show their interest ROC, then we'll know if a regular investment of time is worthwhile.

Thanks for the support so far.

Flubby, Kanga -- who's the Parrot's web master?  I noticed the link I followed from kanga's site went to a frame redirect, but I can still see the ?German? writing behind the joomla frame that comes up.  Was that meant to be?

Kangas's blog has http://parrots.de.nr/  which appears to be a frame wrapper around your first link.

The blog entry on Kangas's site I pulled the link from is about two years old, so that's probably why.  I just found the old link.

Kanga, 

No problem.  Glad you're getting the word out and doing the leg work to measure the interest level.

Regarding the link -- whoever you site admin is may want to look at doing a redirect via meta characters or .htaccess instead of doing a frame based redirect.  I haven't checked the site in IE to see if that works normally, but firefox showed remnants of the original home page.

Any update?

As I have seen - Thursday event, which usually was set for 3pm EST (19 or 20 GMT - depends on daylight savings), now is set for 10pm EST (02 GMT). It means there is actually no snapshot suitable for the Europeans  :frown:

Is it an exception or its a trend?

Introducing Sunday (EU) event make sense in the light of this fact much more...

Thursday snapshot should not have moved in time.  If it is wrong on the calendar, then we'll have to get ROC to fix it.  Or I didn't get the memo.  The Thursday snapshot should still be between 8pm and 10pm Euro time.
