OK, here it is - The new and improved forum.

It should be quicker, especially for searching.

It has enhanced security.

And basically, is much better!

Anything that seems odd, please PM me, we may still find little bugs!

The one annoying thing that may need changing when you can........any posts where you altered text size may now appear smaller that before, this is because the font size system is now similar to a word-processor, and the sizes are different........please ammend any of you own posts when you find them, and moderators will also do the same to posts on their boards.

To turn off the images on the forum index page, enter your profile, and change the template under "options". We will also be adding some other cool templates soon!
