And it's going to be very ugly for a while. Sorry about that. But I'm going to fix things slowly. It'll get done, eventually.

And, surprise, surprise. The avatars are still here. They got removed on my other two forums. Weird, but a nice surprise.

I see a few managed to get in okay. I hope no one is having problems. I'm on my phone, so I can't be of much help at the moment. Bad storms going on. Laters.

Nice job, Joxie. I'm sure it was no small task.
Activation was relatively easy...once I got my computer back; I had hauled the carcass to neighbor guy last week. The hard-drive was shot to hell, he installed a new one (and Windows 7; I had been running XP, so I've got even more changes to get used to). He brought the beast back last night. I lost a bunch of stuff, including Incredimail, which is computer specific, so I couldn't retrieve the activation key on BP's mini-Ipad, which is what I've been using. I got Incredimail back on the new/old computer - with a few glitches, like losing all previous e-mails and contacts (there has got to be a way to retrieve those). But new e-mails are finally coming through...so here I am.

Thanks, Phalon. Proboards made it a tad bit easy. They allow for themes to be exported and imported. So, I exported the theme Lesa and I set up on the test board to a saved file on my computer ... then I imported the saved theme to this board. That took care of the look of most of the forum. Then I had to go into the headers/footers to add what was removed in the upgrade. I did all of the h/f of the boards you can see on the main page. Most of the archive boards have yet to be fixed. I'll get to them soon. I will also need to switch out the old links for the new in the "Links" section at the foot of the forum/boards.
A lot of the bbc code will be messed up in threads/posts, and I'll have to fix them as I find them. Also the bbc codes in the profiles that I added. This will take longer to fix than the forum itself. It's too much of a hassle to go through every thread on every board, so I'll fix them as I come across them through posting and such. The old links will redirect to the new links for a while, and then they'll stop working. So, you can help me out by alerting me to messes that need fixing. Or ... if the post is yours, you can fix it yourself, and if it's another member's post, you can alert them that it needs fixing. That will help me greatly. And I will appreciate the help where I can get it. Just start a thread on the Feedback & Complaints board, and leave the links there. Thanks.
