WHEw!!!!! Woo Hoo ! Upgraded the site to drupal 6.12!! That hurt some but it seems to work ok. Of course my custom theme didn't get converted or isn't compatible but that's ok for now.
If I have time I'll convert it. Most likely I'll create a new one.
I love open source stuff and visual effects. It's my dream to one day have a studio where we use all open source stuff... But right now here are some hang ups with just regular day-to-day stuff that I can't get working in linux.
Wanted to do some research on a list of VFX companies that have gone unde /down or closed doors at one time or another. They will be listed here even if they have later resurected in some form or fashion.
