Dear Users, We have been fine tuning our website in the past few days optimising the entire website so that it can handle the increasing heavy load due to increased site visitors. 1. WEB PAGE COMPRESSION We have fully enabled this web compression which saves 20-40% of a webpage size for faster loading. 2. LIVE CHAT We GREATLY improved the Live Chat logging and tracking feature so that it now loads much faster to display the chat buttons. This will significantly speed up our website loading speed even during the very peak period where US morning and Singapore evening time meets. 3. IMPROVED TABLE OF CONTENT We have designed a new table of content format to replace the olde…

Dear Users, As always we are constantly improving our website and it's resources & features. In order to better consolidate the various additional features added since the last site update, we found the need to further improved the site structure and layout so that you can better access all the various site features on this website. We made sure that we kept what made the recent updates so good (the easy navigational links). Now we made it even better with the latest changes to standardise the site structure and colour schemes if any. 1. LAYOUT IMPROVEMENTS ====================== You will find that the latest revision is extremely friendly and visually appealing to …

Dear Users, We have made a few new improvements to the website:- 1.

Dear Users, We have made several improvements to two key areas of the website:- 1. SEARCH WEBSITE ================= As our resources and website is growing, there is a need to have a larger, and faster searching, and a more fully featured search engine to cater to the needs of this website. So we have added a higly scalable DATABASE Search Engine which will be able to search through the entire website very quickly and accurately. It also comes with several features that will make your searching more accurate and faster. Currently this search only searches ALL PUBLIC pages hosted on our external webpage. It does not integrate a search into the Forum messages or Picture mes…

Dear Users, We have launched the updated Search Website feature with the final version to support integrated search to the Forum Messages. Our Forum Messages contains a lots of resources (even more than those that we publish on the public website). So it has been our aim to want to provide an integrated search that allows users who are searching our public pages to be able to perform a quick search into the forum. This will allow you to easily find the many resources available in our public and forum pages. URL: http://www.geomancy.net/search/search.htm Currently, the Forum Search will only list the 5 latest messages from the search query. I believe this is sufficient for…

Dear Users, We have updated our Pillar of Destiny Premium. In the last update we added the SCORE module for detemrining if the 10-year period is good or bad. This was done with a complex tree structure of 10-year, 5-yearly, yearly and 6 monthly analysis. With this flow structure, it was easy to deduce if a 10-year period was good or not. However, it does not actually yet represent whether a selected year (ie 1938) is actually good or bad. So we just added a new module to analyse only any selected year. This is done with looking at the 10-yearly and the selected year luck pillars to determine along with a detailed check for any clashes / harms / punishment etc which is fou…

Dear Users, We have been working on simultaneously on several new developments in the past few days. Shop @ Geomancy =============== Our website has grown a lot and our old shopping cart is no longer sufficient to allow us to display the many products & services we have to offer to support our users who require them.

URL: http://www.geomancy.net/shop/shop.htm List of All Free & Paid Services ================================ We actually had many free & paid services available,…

Dear Users, In our recent publishing, we found a few errors in the templates (ie extra lines which makes the formatting out a little, plus a few clean up in directories resulting the some CSS files not being called properly.) The following are now fixed:- 1. Fun with Feng Shui The graphics in the Introduction to Feng Shui had some path error in our local publish and website publish which had the graphics file located wrongly, thus the graphics for this portion sometimes cannot show up properly. 2.

Dear Users, IMPROVED MAIN PAGE LAYOUT ========================= The most difficult page to design is the main page. Simply because our website has so many features, sections, resources and services all over the thousands of pages.

LOTS OF LEARNING RESOURCES 2. LOTS OF APPLICATION TOOLS 3. PROFESSIONAL SERVICES By grouping them up in the above, we are able t…

Dear Users from Argentina, Subject: E-mail Address ending with .ar (Argentina) 1. Please take note that our servers have blocked the entire .ar (Argentina addresses). 2. Therefore, any user who comes from Argentina and using e-mail address e.g. abc@cde.ar or abc@xxxx.ar will not be able to participate thru the mailing list option. 3. This is because many of the ISPs (large and small) in Argentina allow their servers to open relay spams. And some of them have even forged some of our domain names. This has led to receiving forged or rejected mails - supposely from us. 4. And these ISPs are not responsive and continue to allow open relays e.g. allowing their users or third …

Dear Users, Early this year; we had reduced many of fixed package prices (as much as 80% price reduction) for all who need value added and comprehensive services. This was done immediately following the 911 incident. We have heavily subsidised all users; with these very low pricing which is below the running costs e.g. hosting costs to ISPs etc.. As most of the global economy is recovering from the 911 incident; we will be ending most of these offers by 1 Apr 2002. Instead, these offers will be offered on a CASE-BY-CASE basis. For those in dire need, you may even get free audit services or free DIY paid credits from us. We will still provide lower price packages, but will…
