As you will notice, the board has been upgraded.  We hope you will enjoy the new features.

There are now subforums, please use the appropriate subforums for roll calls and reviews.

As time goes on, we will be tweaking things, and as always if you have suggestions, please let us know (within reason ;))

We hope you enjoy the changes!

Some other changes include the new forum jump at the bottom of the page (yeah!), the quick reply, your PM box is now easier to clean out, posts are now numbered, and when you edit it takes you back to the post rather than the beginning of the thread.  There are other minor changes, and plenty of changes that will make our jobs easier too!

Also, when you have a PM, a little bar will spin making it easier to notice.

It's good to be back!  Hopefully the navigation around the site will be easier.  Feel free to make suggestions, we are open and thankfully, so is our new provider.

Also, the calendar works again, but seems to crash when a recurring daily event is entered.

This is a completely different software, so the backgrounds are different.  We will be adding options in the coming days.

So does that mean we have to keep the spinning seashells for now?

You can stop the shells by going to the bottom and "mark all forums read" and it will stop the spinning.  I am going through the available backgrounds, but keep in mind with additional backgrounds, any additions to the main site such as chat, etc wouldn't be seen with other backgrounds.  We will have one background that we will keep updated, but it may be the end of the weekend before we have it back up.

Chat should be up by end of the day.

I think you would go to "My Account" and I believe it is listed under preferences, let me go double check that (which I should have done before replying, ha ha!)

Yes, that is it. My Account->Preferences, and about half way down the page you can choose your theme. Let me know if you have any trouble!

Ocean was one of the ones we paid for and had customized, it will not work with this new software :(  I'm sorry.  We may do another custom theme down the road, but for now, we just have the four themes, Sea being the one that is the default and matches our lovely logo the best :big grin:

Sorry to hear that Pete :(  Many of these changes are ones that members have been asking for now for a long time.  In this case, we didn't have much of a choice, it was either half our members not be able to access the site, or switch.

By the way, chat is back up and running.

I switched over to the Sea theme. My eyes like it much better. Couldn't tell on the Ultra theme which ADM was posting! :big grin:
