I'll be upgrading the forum software shortly, which if all goes smoothly, means we won't be down for long... (fingers crossed).

After which I'll be doing a Gallery2 integration to restore the long absent photo gallery that we used to have.. back.. what 2 years ago? :o

So you can perhaps expect a few 'glitches' over the next few days. :atwork:

Cheers

Ok we are now on the latest version of vBulletin.

Issues that are being resolved to get as back to where we were:

missing head shots at top of page
some missing nav components (example roll call) are missing
T4T custom buttons and icons to be restored
some custom avatars have to be restored (like Affix's)

I'm still on the fence about the gallery2 option after looking over the integration issues. The other option is to upgrade the old photopost software (which would make restoring the old photos easier) although that is going to cost another $129 bucks, and I just spent $30 on upgrading vBulletin.

Do we have a paypal setup to contribute?

Doesent seem vbulletin has a web services interface. One could make posting TR's from various image survices much better if one had this sort of interface.

Thanks for everyone's support.

I'll be setting up a paypal donor page once I have the photo gallery ready. I'm converting the old gallery data which is going to take a bit of fiddling with, but its coming!

I coulda swore I replied in this thread before.... weird deja vu kinda mojo hapnin heah!

Dave... I would love to pitch in... Do you accept Euros?
Maybe gallery space could be proportional to donation given? Keep up the awesome work dude! I would be honored to make some turns with you someday.
