The forum has now been upgraded to the latest version, complete with a host of new features designed to make things quicker and easier.

Notable new features include :

- New Icon/Navigation bar at the top of the forum
- Improved 'New Post' Markers - You no longer have to 'mark forum as read'
- New 'User Mini Profile' - Displays a short profile screen for a user
- Ability to add a photo of yourself to your profile
- Improved 'Lost Password' System
- Users can now edit the title of a topic that they have started
- Posting screen includes help explaining the function of the html tags
- 'Quick Reply' feature at the end of topics ( will be enabled after testing )
- Long URL's in posts no longer distort the page
- You can now add an attachment to an existing post
- You can now edit/add poll options and create 'No-Reply' Polls
- New option to clear out all your PM folders in one go
- New sorting options to view on-line users on the board index
- Avatars are now sorted into Galleries in the user control panel
- New 'Report' button added to replace 'report to moderator'

There are also a lot of other features which benefit the way the forum works behind the scenes.

Since the new forum version uses a different HTML format than the previous version, I've had to re-create the skin for the forum, so you might see a couple of graphical glitches here and there.

Some of the custom profile fields, such as the flags and gender, have yet to be re-added, and will be back again shortly.

It seems to be working fine, aside from my reply taking so long to transfer. Ok the reply worked fne! good job SaRuMaN!!

Very, very nice work Saruman.

Once again you have outdone yourself.

Things look great SaRuMaN! Excellent job!

yes, I like the new option to have a photo in your profile (mine is me eating corn)

Once again, this place looks great!! Well done SaRuMaN!!

This is really neat, well done Saruman!!

Nice work, SaRuMaN!!

And is it just me, or is the forward slash automatically included in the second set of quote thingies you use?

You think of everything!

Thank godness you guys put this post up I though I was losing it again everything I type is in a different font .... I think . maybe I am losing it again .

Keep up the good work Saruman and MC . This evil little plot you have hatched to befuddle LB when he gets back is pure genius .

I didn't think it was possible for you to add more miracles, but?
You have!!!!!!!

As I have said before some one is going to need finger splints after all this.
