Thanks, I followed the 2nd article, and it got the existing virtual machines communicating with each other.
However, any new virtual machines I created after making the changes can't communicate with anything, they can't even get out to the internet, even if I manually set the IP address info. Any suggestions on that?

Check that they're using your static bridge. 'virsh dumpxml <vm>' will have a section like:
==== <interface type='network'> <mac address='52:54:00:71:20:fa'/> <source network='bcn_bridge1' bridge='bcn_bridge1'/> <target dev='vnet2'/> <model type='e1000'/> <alias name='net2'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/> </interface> ====
That tells you that the interface is MAC '52:54:00:71:20:fa' is "plugged in" to the bridge 'bcn_bridge1'. If that doesn't connect to the right bridge, then you need to change it (virt-manager has a simple to use GUI for this, or you can use 'virsh edit <vm>' if you're comfortable editing XML).
