Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:24 PM)

Finally!

@  RedMenace : (21 July 2015 - 05:02 PM)

Woooo! The site's back up! Three cheers for Kef!

As you can see, the New Site Design is Underway. It's not 100 percent perfect yet, but it works, and none of the sites should be 'Broken' so to speak, please bear with us as I go about updating the site to the new format...

Luckily the new layout isn't THAT far a shot from the OLD layout. It may not need THAT much tweaking!

Also, the Forum Rules are most likely going to be rehauled soon, so stayed tuned for that, too!

Yes, I must say that so far I like what I see. Seems a little more organized than the last version.

I just checked it out. I must say for the first few seconds I was not digging it, then I really took a look at it and saw that the chat and MB link where close together, and I like that. Its better for when I want to use the chat area. I love the title "News you can use" So far, so good.

And I'm jealous of your 'Contact Me' thing. I'm secretly considering making a version with Rotor on it for my site.

Eh, it'll take some getting used to but it looks good so far.

Conceivably it needs a bit more space between the horizontal menu and the messageboard/chat link - if you accidentally open a drop-down part of the horizontal bit then you obscure the double link below, so if you scroll your mouse down too quickly and click then you go somewhere else instead. That might concievably get annoying.

If you're really impatient like me *shrugs*

Also the classic "Sonic and Knuckles" style FUS logo by Shredder should be on there somewhere.

looks pretty good, I encountered no issues with it.
where exactly do you feel this is lacking though?

Looks pretty good for the most part. You might want to move Adam's fanart picture somewhere else because it looks a little weird there, and maybe a couple more characters shown for the main banner (alongside Sonic & Sally). But other than that, I'm happy with it.

The new design is like buying one of those eco-friendly products that contain 35% more recycle material than the old design did. I like how it's more smaller than the old design.

I approve of it, it gives the new message board a fitting match.
My motto "Watch as much anime as possible" that way you can impress other anime fans.
