    Welcome back everyone...

    The board has been successfully upgraded and is now working again.

    We did have a few issues - namely that the old server wouldn't let us pull off a full backup, so we've lost the last 10 days worth of posts. On the plus side, we've kept everything else and it should all be still working.

    Over the next few days I will be checking through everything to make sure there are no bugs or errors, but I'd appreciate it if you could let me know if you spot any :)

    Welcome back! :D

    It's probably not going to be the final look, there's a few tweaks MoS and I want to make, so expect things to change over the next few weeks.

    I'm in the middle of re-indexing all of the threads on the board to fix the search fault we had, so the board may run slightly slow for the next couple of hours.

    There's a range of default templates/styles available and people can pick and choose which one they want - Look at the blue bar at the bottom of the page and click on it to change the style.

    What do people think so far?

    I've increased the size of everyone's PM boxes to 500 messages, and changed the avatar settings to allow slightly bigger ones :)

    The signatures were turned off by the upgrade. If you turn it back on it will start displaying as normal.

    Looks very swish.

    Loads of posts/threads have bitten the dust though
