Hello everyone,

I'm here to announce the long-awaited, official launch of Engraving Etc. as a subscription site.

The big event will take place, this upcoming Wednesday evening, April 25, 2007 at 8:00 pm Pacific Standard Time.

For those of you who have been with us, throughout our eight-year tenure, the value of Engraving Etc. has become self-evident.

For those of you new to the site, we offer this food for thought:

Thank you for your past support. We look forward to you seeing you in our new format, where together, we'll forge new chapters in the history of the awards and engraving industry.

All the best,

The buttons will be activated upon the change of format.

Happy to hear you're eagerly anticipating the big event. :-)

David,

I know that this has been a challenging, enlightening, endeavor of love for you, and that you have put a tremendous amount of effort and thought into it.

Please know that I among many others here appreciate the efforts you have made to create and maintain Engraving Etc all these 8 years. It is without a doubt a valuable resource and I am happy to be a part.....

Congratulations

Thank you Chuck.

Some how I figured you'd be coming along. :-)

Thanks for the support and active paticipation.

Oh, and you're not off the hook as MC of next year's annual party. :-)

David,

Count me as one who truly appreciates what you have done for us over the years. I do not doubt for a second the fee you will charge will be a small price to pay for the quality info we get from the forum.

Ruben,

We'll need an hispanic space traveler along, (to interpret), in case we encounter illegal aliens. :P

Thank you,

Thank you Tom.

This move will mark our fourth and final fresh start.

Each time, we've bounced back stronger than ever.

Happy to know you're be along for the new adventure. :-)

Congrats David,

I look forward to seeing all the upgrades and improvements that you have been working on the last few years while planning for this day.....I can hardly wait to see what you have done to the joint. ;)

Thanks,

Brian

Thank you Brian.

The site will be essentially the same, with upgrades and improvements coming steadily.

This move will give me more time to devote to those aspects.

Running the balancing act of being nearly-omnipresent here, while trying to maintain a profitable engraving business, has been a challenge. :-)

I find this whole thing kinda ironic.

The other site started because this was going to be a pay site. The other site started charging before you did.

I am only going to pay for one site and this is it!'

Thanks for a great service.

Steve

Steve,

Oh boy! I don't want to open that can of worms, but I truly appreciate your support.

How else are we going to keep track of your adventures with the Chinese laser machine? :-)

Thanks again; it means a lot to me.

No problem. I don't want to open any can of worms either!

I did not mean to put down the other site in any way. I just want to make sure that I did not imply anything negative.

I just don't want to pay for more than one site and I decided on this one for various reasons.

Steve

Your statement is not totally true, we have a FREE forum with many advanced features and a Premium Members area that has Training Videos, Software and many other features that is $20 per year to help offset server and bandwidth costs.

We have never had a "Forum War", both forums serves a purpose but in a different direction. I suggest you join David's forum and visit us on our free forum. That is a "Win Win" for everyone.

And David I truly wish you success with your new forum, it takes a lot of hard work to run a forum.

Thank you Ken.

As you suggest, there will be fans of one forum, or the other, or both.

As much as they look alike, there are decided differences in the function and audience they serve.

All the best,

Like I said I am not saying anything bad about your site.

But I can only spend time on one engraving forum, and this is the one.
