Thank you all for your patience and support.
I have finally managed to get inside the fortress wall! I had been trying to do this without stepping on any toes and was trying to respect Steve's brother's desire to be involved somehow. But in the end, his lack of response was something I just couldn't find my way past. I had a good long conversation with Steve's dad today and we decided it was time for me to just do it. So now, the real work begins. Unfortunately, I'm dealing with a pretty steep learning curve here and haven't figured out all of the ins and outs of the operation, but I'm going to give it my best shot. I spent a couple of hours this evening responding to six months' worth of unanswered messages in Steve's inbox and trying to understand the complex maze that is the GRiSO Ghetto administration. It's going to take some time, please bear with me.
I think it would be wise to have a couple of other people included in the management, but I need to take a little time and figure out how to navigate the controls myself first. And of course, I have projects underway so I'm going to have to pick away at this. I'm feeling overwhelmed and relieved all at the same time.
I'm also feeling very close to Steve tonight. I hope I can make him proud.

Pete, I noticed. Please PM if you need assistance. I don't wish to be an admin or moderator here, but I'm admin on another Forumotion board, and I'm happy to help you navigate the controls.

Well done, Pete!
Those of us in the bleachers are grateful.
I know less about IT than I do wrenching Guzzis, so I am predictably useless in tis endeavor.
That said, if you are incurring any expenses in this -- besides lost sleep! -- please let us know so we can at least help out in that way.
With gratitude,
Bill

Pete, It's a long road you are on, good luck w/it. Don't let it overwhelm you, use your art & job to get your head strait. I know nothing about all this. I had to learn computers to stay currant on wrenching. Thanks for taking this on.

I'm with Bill - I am limited with being able to support IT issues but can certainly chip in if we need to pay for someone to step up
