Pixalo Crew additions

***Steve*** · 02-02-2007, 10:25

Pixalo has been run by four Crew members since we opened. In the last 8 months our membership has grown from 600 to over 2000 with an obvious increased workload for our small but efficient team to handle. Over the last few days the Crew have been discussing this and we have decided that now is the correct time to bring in some new blood to our team and make a few changes.

The people selected have been chosen by the existing Crew. They may not have the largest post counts (its quality not quantity that counts) but they have all stood out to the crew for one reason or another. We are confident in their ability to step up and meet the demands of being a valued Crew member.

Once the new Crew additions are in place and are comfortable with the day to day operation of the site, there will be some restructuring. Dave and I intend to step back from the daily decision making and leave the majority of the sites future direction and development in the capable hands of the Crew. This is a real and genuine chance for the people invited to make a difference to the site for the benefit of all our members, past, present and future.

Later today the first invitations will be sent out to the people that we would like to join us. Should you receive one of these invitations we would ask you to consider it carefully.

Further announcements will be made when/if the members accept these postions.

I think that no-one replied to this announcement yesterday in case it was seen as a <hands-up> "me, me" thing, it wasn't that your very important announcement was ignored, Steve - I'm sure everyone who saw it took it on board as a major development for the site

Yes, you + Dave deserve a bit of the pressure being taken off you, but I hope this doesn't mean that we won't see you both every day in the forums

As an interested member, I did wonder how many Crew are you thinking of increasing to?

I do hope you have considered your choices of candidate carefully as well, as it would be awkward for you to 'fire' someone, but I'm sure you already thought of that

Good luck with this exercise
