As many of you may have noticed, I've gone ahead with the site upgrade, donations are still more than welcome!

A few things:

Check your profiles make sure it all transferred over right, I knwo EVERYONEs birthday is screwed up, so you'll need to fix that etc...

I'm still working on alot of the site, the main page isn't just how I like it etc... and I have more mods to add (Yes, the garage is gone, I'll try to find a replacement) The Chat box is now integrated with the rest of the site, it's on the index page of the forums atm, I am working on getting it to the main page, but it's not working correctly.

Let me know if your permissions are set up wrong, if you can or can't see things you used to etc.. I'll get it all fixed up.

Currently we are using this theme, I like it, after I'm done with all the upgrades and getting it working I'll work on more themes to choose from etc...

Let me know what you think!

Ok, got alot going tonight, and breaking from it all until tomarrow night.

Donation system is up and running, you can choose what to donate towards and so forth. it also makes a list of who donated and how much, and puts the donator image next to your name in the forum posts, I like this feature, shows everyone that you want to help etc....

User names colors are about half done... I have to go through them one by one this first set up and check everything etc... but we'll get it pretty soon. I'll have a "key" that explains the colors in the next day or two when I'm done with them, but basically:

admin = red
officer = yellow
member = green
forum user = blueish

This will change up some as I go along, but for now this is how it is.

Got the chat box on the main page, but it doesn't "size" correctly, just keeps getting longer as there are more posts.

Clicking the "members only section" link at the top takes you to the members only boards, these are also accessable from the forums themsleves, but thats the easiest way to see them all neatly laid out.

We have a link to view TS and the Servers, I'm working on setting up the TS viewer like before, but thats gonna take some brains which I have none of tonight. Server Viewer will be some time after all of these updates are finished

Got a new Garage up, not as fancy as the old one, but works just as well, and less admin management crap.

There is a really nice Tracker thing I can try to install and I hope it works (stupid host won't open any more ports for me, thats why TS viewer is a pain) But I'll mess with that later, possibly this weekend.

Soon I'll start adding the AA home GW home and BF homes, but not until after I finish the rest of the forums, making sure the rest is set up right is my priority

Just got the "Post Thanks" mod working, now you can give thanks on posts that you find useful etc... don't abuse it or I can take it away :-D
