Some questions =)

I can see that you have added some new skins, Mogul, The Post, Celebrity etc, where can I see examples of these? =) Do the new themes work with NING, if i switch?

And im actually may want to SWITCH to youre community this month or next, my ning network is 1 of the top 100 largest networks on NING... But now theve just got a lot of SERVER ERRORs =(

Ive got the Backup ready, but I wonder if I can choose the "JAMROOM HOSTED" version, all depends on HOW much my content GB i have to choose, as its a lot of stuff....
I also need help with the DOMAIN mapping, as forum, blogs etc have differt urls?
So the Search engines arent confused!

THANKS!

Those skins are not made by 'The Jamroom Network' (us) they are made by a different developer @n8flex.

Their forum is here:
https://www.jamroom.net/n8flex/forum

Think paul answered most of the second part in the other thread:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/ning-to-jamroom/39476/some-questions-on-future-migration-from-ning

yes we can help you get set up to redirect old url's to new ones.

Just to add to what Michael said, I've not tried the new @n8flex skins, but in principle they should work ok with imported Ning media but may not, by default, show all Ning content (groups etc.) so may need some additional template work to do that. Again, you would need to discuss that with @n8flex if you are considering using one of his skins.

You say you have your Ning2 backup ready so presumably you have it all downloaded to your PC via their archiver tool, including all media and image files? If so, check how big it is on your disk so as to assess the size of server needed. Also remember that Jamroom converts and stores additional copies audio and video files so that they will play ok on all devices (desktops, mobiles and tablets) so double (or triple to be safe) the size taken by all these files in your archive.

We do have a 'Domain Mapping' module specifically developed for Ning migrants that can generically map Ning2 urls to their Jamroom equivalent so that should go some way to resolving that issue.
Hope that helps, and let us know if you have any further questions and when you are ready to proceed.
Thanks
Paul

Ok!
Its 20 GB (TOTAL)...

...I guess I need 60GB then or is 48GB enough? =)

So that $89 per month, is it possible for me to remove IMAGES etc later on somehow, to "Clean"?, if it takes a lot of STORAGE?

+ 69 for the NING IMPORT service? =)

THANKS!

Are there lots of audio/viodeo uploads in your archive? If so, then yes, 48GB might be pushing it. Our next plan size is 96GB which would certainly be ok.
You can filter the import by time - only import content less than a year old, say. A lot of the archived Ning images are embedded in the item comments so truncating comments in threads older than a set time could save some space. It really all depends on what is in your archive already!!
If you do start with a 96GB server, and then delete or filter content, you can always 'downsize' after the import.
