Hey guys,

The forum is back online, and has been upgraded as y'all can probably see. Hope you like the new style for the forum. We're now using the near-latest version of Invision Board, so there's a few changes/new features, but nothing substantial.

You might also notice we've introduced a whole new set of forums, as well as some additional forums in existing categories. A few things have been reordered too to keep similar things better grouped. Here's a breakdown:


Open Discussion now has a Games and jokes sub-forum.

There's a new category, Sonic Discussion. Within this, we've tried to create a set of forums which are fairly straightforward while covering most topics of conversation relating to Sonic, and the Sonic series. If you're not sure which forum to go with, take a guess and a mod will move it to another section if they believe it would be better suited there.

Fan Creations now has a new forum, "Planning". If you're starting a project up, or in the process of making one, but need somewhere to plan things - maybe looking to get others involved - this is the forum for you.

There's a new section called "File Center". If you need a place to exchange files with someone, you can do so here. The rules are more relaxed, so you can swap simple Sprite Recolor, for example. Remember that what you post is accessible to all members. Also, this isn't meant as a permanent storage base for files; all topics older than 5 days are automatically deleted. It shouldn't be used for swapping illegal files. Anyone found doing this may be banned, depending on severity. Finally, it's still experimental so we might remove it again at a later time.


If there are any problems, missing files, etc, please let either Sway or myself know

Wow. This fucking sucks, I had to change a bookmark!

Seriously, though, it's Pretty cool, if I say so myself. I just have to get used to these brighter colors! It's cool and all.... I'm just a vampire, and I've had horrible experiences with family members and light....

I must say, Requiem. The place looks bloody awesome. Well done, keep up the good work.

[Sway]

Told you guys he's legit.

That reminds me, I think there was a problem with uploads recently giving permission denied errors (not 100% sure). Either way, if you had the problem it's fixed now

[Selatein]

Hmm... I have an issue. It looks like Topic Subscribe is set to default. That would be an issue....

Sweet job, guys! This new style looks awesome.

I know

Anyways, no, that's not the issue. I think that it may be the "Send me any updates sent by the board administrator" option in the "Email Settings" part. I'm going to look into this further....

Spiffy new look! Just out of curiousity, how many additions were involved in this, or does the ability to insert all of these extra pictures and the like come with the new version of this particular BB system?

Nope, it just looks like I clicked the subscirbe button. That, or strange glitch. Or you were a bastard and subscribed everyone to it. I'll tell you if it happens again

If you mean the individual images which go with each postbit, aligned to the right, it involved a source code modification and to edit the HTML templates slightly The background images for the index/topic listing involved quite a few HTML template changes as well.

Oh, it's mostly stock IPB2. There are some modifications, but they are almost all for staff benefit, no really extra user options.

Edit: ^^^ What he said too.

Please do, because I don't think i did anything to cause it May have been a minor glitch with the upgrade process, which is about all I can think of.

I LOVE THESE UPDATES

[Project Z.E.R.O.]

Oh.......my..........God! This is so awesome! You guys rock! Please tell me where you get the IBP 2.0(Trial) Version! They don't release them anymore!

(BTW, is there anything I can help with? Gradients? Skin? Website? Something?)

We've had this IPB sitting around for a while.

As of right now, we need no help, I'll let you know if we do.

God Dammit! I swear, it's happening with every thread that I reply to. God dammit, this is pissing me off.

[Project Z.E.R.O.]

Ok.....well I'll be ready if you ever need help......

Can I have the IBP2? Unless, well, you paid for it or something......
