Changes Coming to Cincinnati D.I.Y.

Harry's leaving this month for grad school in Texas, so he decided to hand off the poster-making and message board for Cincinnati DIY.  Instead of having one person run both of them, he's giving the responsibilities to two different people.  I'm going to be running the board (I'm a co-administrator right now) and Brian Uhl is going to in charge of the posters.

By the way, I made a few changes to the forums.  They weren't all that major; just tweaking it to be more streamlined, really.  I have plans for it that include buying a domain name (which will make it a lot easier for people to remember the website address... haha), making a portal for it as an entryway, which will have the latest news and a scrolling calendar, etc.

Also, there's going to be a going-away party for Harry at Bikehaus later this month.  Please come, as we've all benefited greatly from the hard work that he's done.

While we do have artists for the flyers booked through the rest of the year, we want to make it absolutely clear that ANYONE (literally, ANYONE) can design one.  The only requirement is that you make it legible.
