Alright everyone. As you can probably see, we've switched message board systems. We're now using vBulletin as opposed to UBB. While I love UBB, we just can't stand having to stick with older versions because of a lack of options. This system has all the options built in - all the ones we feel are important...

Anyways.. Avatars need to be reset. You can upload your own if you like. Calendar events - they need to be reset as well. If you go into your profiles, you'll see a spot to add your birthdate.

Smilies. Well, I'm sure Roemello has something in mind for us. I don't believe there is a limit.

If you have any questions, concerns, whatevers - please reply right here. Let us know!

Boy do I ever have some ideas....:D lol. This should be fun to play with...

Hi Roem!

Guess what, all! You can have your dark colors back too if you like. Just go into your profile (User CP - User Control Panel) and select "Edit Profile". Scroll to the bottom and select your Style Set. The Default is Light Blue. Choose Dark Blue if you like our old color scheme...

There are a couple of minor changes that I may make (like the logo still being in light blue) - but it's okay for now...

Testing my avatar. If you didn't get my e-mail Sal.....I found my way to the 'shed' lol :D

The time on the posts is screwed up.............what's with that? I switched the thing in my profile to eastern time but, it still isn't working.

Just wondering what happened to the private forums. Like olut mod forum?? Can't find it at all on here. Sure you'll get it back up in time. :)

Ok Ted....the time should be fixed now. As for the mod forum....it's still there...might be invisible to mods for some reason though....hmmm....

Yup it's fixed now, Thanks. :D

Must be Roem. I can't find it. lol ;) Need it to be visible.

It's taking some getting used to, but I like the changes. It's a lot faster now.

Is it there now Jazzy?

What about my public name? How can I change it?

I don't think so....but I think I could change it from inside, but it would be changing your log-in name....that's probably the only thing we lost from the other board....there's no ability for public names that differ from log in names....

Well thats not so bad......when you have time could ya change it to Ted Nugent? Thanks. :)

Sure....maybe tonight unless Sal tries it :) Setting up the mods access to the mod forum now...

Yeah, that's fine.... I wouldn't mind getting "Cartoon_Chris" back if I may. It's hard to let go of something you've grown attached to after two whole days together.... sniff....

Looks like there might be some serious changing of log-in names needed here from what I can see :)

At some stage if you could drop the 68 from mine, it would be much appreciated. :D

Usernames have been changed...

Ha! There he is...lol. Just remember now....you have to log-in as those new names now I believe....:)

how do i get my old name caligula back?:)

Like this! **poof** LOL

can you change mine to pamela* again please?? ;)

Thanks

No LL at the moment.. or at least I can't see it.. guess you guys are adding it ??

The LL's gonna take a while to get back in order....it hasn't gone anywhere, just is gonna take a while to make the user group and give access to those who we know off hand had access previously...

thanks Roem!!! {{{hugz}}} so nice to be pamela again ;)

no probs ;) On the LL note....seems this could be trickier than I thought...figure something out...stay tuned :cool:

Another little bug....all polls made in the previous system are gone :( We still have polls in this system, just under a different format....

Yes. that's right. I forgot about that. :( Well. Atleast they were a fairly new option... I may be able to get our ezBoard messages added in here. That would be nice. I'm finding out...

How about chat? :D

:alien: <--LOL!

Chat's still here....I answered this in a previous post, just copy this URL into your favorites until a link can be set....

http://www.80sxchange.com/chatroom.htm

...or - you can still get there from the front page... Haha! I see the caffeine smiley! :p :vibrator:

Can you fix my username, Sal or Roem? I'd like to just be jen or jen*.:)

though not enough so. The other bulletin boards I'm with use this system as well. Adjustments for the new year? Eh, I've dealt with many. What's one more?;) :lol:

Oooh, new smilies! This new design is summed up for me by this smiley::ego:

Welcome back to the future!

Sincerely,

John "outofplacechild" Kilduff

All set jen* :D

Wow. The calendar looks bad in dark blue mode. If I don't fix this soon, please, someone remind me!

Thanks!

John.. :ego: is Roems' personal smile! It's called the "exploding ego" and we used to use it all of the time when we referred to The Roem! ;)

And I have my own personal smile, too! :tinajo:

Time zones, Sal and Roem... I didn't see the option for my time zome... :( I like to know what times the last posts were posted... Also.. I used to like the "users online" feature... where you could see what people were reading and replying to.

Time zones is under Edit Options, down near the bottom. You get there by clicking on 'user cp.'

The users online feature is still there Tina, just click on "Currently Active Users."

I've tried to reset my custom name a couple of times. Either the new system doesn't like Cajun Lady, or I'm doing something wrong. HELP!!!!:(

Well this system ain't gonna give me no grief...lol. I popped it in..;)

Roem, I could cry I'm sooooo happy!:devil:

Cool ;) It tells you who is in the forum browsing with you... I was in the member's lounge.. and it said Recker was there browsing too. That's pretty darn spiffy!!
Also has a thing at the bottom saying when the most people were online at one time. Most users ever online was 26 on December 28th, 2001 at 08:49 PM

Another thing I just noticed is, when you post a link in your post... where it normally asks for the link.. and then the text to display.. it does the opposite and asks for the text (Click Here) first and then the link (http://). Threw me off and I had to go back and edit a post that I made.
