    Exclamation Upgrades and Style Changes

    In the next week or so we're going to be shutting down the forum for a major upgrade.

    The upgrade will eventually lead to some new features being added, but I'm going to have to ditch the custom style. I'm going to try to keep the graphics and colors, but the layout will be more similar to the old blue one that we had before.

    As the forum software continues to grow and change, maintaining the custom templates is tedious and troublesome and I think a more standard style will be better for us.

    Cross your fingers and hope that all of our add-on features like iTrader, Chat, and the Auctions work afterward

    Thanks so much for the countless hours you spend upgrading this site and keeping it up. As always it looks and runs great.

    I, as I'm sure everyone else appreciate your effort and constant work.

    Actually, Troy, this is the default color that comes pre-loaded onto vBulletin. How's that for easy? I just need to add a Simply banner to the top and replace the vBulletin one.

    Thanks, Sammie. I figure it's best to stay on top of the updates for security purposes, and also so that we don't get too far behind in them. The longer you wait in between upgrades, the more time-consuming it is.
