Mr FMT,
I did see one thing the site lost in Google search. Lots of the links for pics and I am sure for ordinary search results are pointing to the old forum site. Thus the veiws and presxtige are being lost. Is it possible to set up some forwarding system to redirect to the new domain?
The forum totally dominated other tobacco sites in the ranking on almost any tobacco query I made. Now it is giving lots of old forumn links and no forwarding address.

They will re-establish on their own. I'll bet , any body wanna bet.
[By people using the resources they will be seen as more popular and show up on more searches.]

Don, there's a few glitches with links.

When you go to Fairtradetobacco.com, the link Fair Trade Tobacco Forum, leads to the link (http://wholeleaftobaccollc.com/forum&zenid=stfbn9hgi732qbuf9sq270dc27) which is a duplicate of the layout of fairtradetobacco.com, if you click on the Fair Trade Tobacco Forum on that link, it then takes you to the mentioned forum.

Very very very nice, clean and attractive set up on the website, congrats :)

That is by design. To eliminate ever having to visit the combined site's home page, go to the forum home page, bookmark it and put the bookmark in your tool bar. When you want to come to the forum, click on the bookmark...you'll never have to see the whole leaf sight again.

I don't know about the rest but I'm watching. Still hoping for some more Nicaraguan Habano Seco

:) Me too.

It's on its way. Should be here within the next two weeks...unless we get a big blow to push that freighter along a little faster.

This is from another vendor though. It's cleaner than the last stuff and I really believe it will be better than the last.

Ah, well then nevermind Don, a glitch is a good thing. I bookmarked the "correct" one back when I first noticed it, but I still occasionally go to the combined page, fun to snoop around :D
