We're working on it

[John]

Hi all,

Welcome to the new setup. The care and info articles are in tatters right now. I haven't had enough time to transfer the updated versions from the test site. I decided to make the forum itself available to use rather than make you all wait for the articles to be fixed. I should get these issues taken care of by Friday night. We will have the chat facility back by then too.

In the mean time, the forum works fine and the new blog facility is up and running.

Thanks for your continued patience and support!

John

Hi John:

Great job! I will like the new design once I get used to it. You know us old-timers have a tough time with these newfangled things

I love the new look of the Site and the easy and new Profile customization thank-you! Awsome Job!

Look good so far. Just a little confusing at first, as always. Just one thing though, perhaps a stronger colour for a new post in a thread? The light blue is quite hard to tell apart from the normal white.

Looks great John im looking forward to be on the site more often

So far I've gotten overwhelmingly positive feedback. Thanks all.

I've gotten a lot more done tonight, such as latest album pics on the front of the site (I had to write that from scratch because an addon for vb 4.15 wasn't available, which wasn't fun), the sponsor banners are now showing correctly (rather than just google ads), post thanks are back, as are many little tiny enhancements that I've also updated.

My todo list as far as the upgrade is concerned has now shrunk to the following:

- Get the care articles up and running (currently they are buggy and/or missing pictures, or completely blank)
- Get the chat back up and running
- Edit the main horizontal menu to get back some of the old functionality
- Make new Sponorship and Sponsors List pages

Should be able to get the first and second ones done today (Friday).

Thanks for your continued patience.

I'm using the lastest Opera. I'll try it tomorrow with IE and Chrome as well, to confirm or deny that it's browser related.

Oh, I forgot something on the third point. If you rightclick > paste, it works as intended. Just Ctrl+V that's weird.

Good luck with Opera. Used it in the mid 90s. Firefox all the way.

What does IQ mean? Opera is used a lot in Scandinavia actually. Lord knows what you guys are on.

To further review the blog-part, it's driving me crazy... Now I can't get the picture to resize them nicely, like they normally do. Instead, it's the full picture, enormous enough to devour the world. Any idea how to fix this? It used to work just fine when [img] asdasd [/img], but now it's just maximizes them.

LOL! I think john is only 14 years older! He is only 34! I am a teen and my family uses firefox and/or explorer! But anyway, John, the forum looks great! I love the bars because they look like leaves, not just plain green! I love it and it is faster than the other forum too! I am also very happy that this smiley face is still here because i LOVE it!

Chat is back. Let me know if there are any problems with it.

Also, for those of you who visit the site from your work place, have a look at the bottom of the general settings area of your forum settings. You might find the Panic Button option very useful!
