Based on some complaints about the search engine not working well (not allowing short words, etc.), I have integrated google's search engine into the site. It doesn't look quite the same, but it should work better for most of you.

Baaaah!! Now you can't search by specific member names.. You could search less than 4 characters by adding * at the end. It is what it is I guess.

This isn't set in stone... I can certainly change it back. I didn't realize that people searched by member name that often. Thoughts?

I can't speak for other people but being there are a few members that have been here for a many year.. We remember who posted what and search by a key word. This isn't the only forum I'm on so searching for anything, even shorter words never have been an issue.
If you type in the members name in the Google Search, it does bring up the members name with the key word but a lot ore involved finding the person that posted it. I'm sure there is a way to do it with the Google search.. I can adapt to anything.
