Re: Forum Upgrade
Just an FYi..

The forum is currently partially upgraded... the forum software base is now vBulletin 3.7 with all the new features listed above, but I have not installed the new compatible add-ins nor installed the 3.7 compatible "skin" so some functionality may be broken. However, the forum appears to be working... if anything is broken right now it is probably related to the new features.

Re: Forum Upgrade
You may notice some odd behaviour on the forum during the next 15 minutes or so while I update the "skin"..

Re: Forum Upgrade
Eric, something went terribly wrong with your upgrade. I cannot read the forum, neither can I post. Can you fix it?

Re: Forum Upgrade
Mike: You hope I can't fix it? hehe

Marvin: you posted and you apparently read my post, were you just wanting to rattle me?

Funny

Anyway, let me know really if you see anything broken.. the only real change I know I know about is the way the "subforums" are listed on the home page... I decided it didn't bother me as much as I thought it did originally... I think it's fine.

Eric
