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 I'm sure most of you (the forum goers) have noticed by now that the forum looks a tad...brighter.   The new skin that has been in the works for some time was released today.  This is now the main forum skin as it matches the website.  This being said the old darker skin is still available.    You can always change it by going to the "Change Theme" (think its called that) button at the bottom left of the forum.

Next on the list of upgrades to do is the Sea3on page.  In the future (I hope sooner then later but we shall see) it shall also match the website colour scheme.  As well as have a better navigation system.  I'm pretty sure we are going to stick with using comic press, but customize it a bit more for our needs.

 

What else needs to get done?  Well a lot of the website's info, facts, etc needs to be re written.  Most of it is out dated, or just hasn't been changed in years.  Hell I think some of it still talks about Alison owning the website. And trust me, that was a LONG time ago...Well, like 5 years ago.  Maybe 6.   Problem there?  I suck at writing those things out.  I know what needs to be changed..How to write it out properly though and make it sound interesting...Nope.   So who knows how long that will take to get fixed.

 

Anyway's thanks for sticking with us, and look foreword to more changes (hopefully for the better).

 

Also if you have any suggestions for the website please let us know and post so in this topic.  We do this for you guys so, might as well ask for your input from time to time.

 

Cheers,

Paul

I think I'll stick with the dark theme. I my eyes are light-sensitive and it feels better on them.

Well I never said it was a bad skin, though, did I? lol :P

My eyes are highly sensitive as well, so I had the same issue as Vlad. Darker forum skins with light colored text work a lot better for me.
