Right, we've had an upgrade to YabbSE/1.3.1 with my own tinkering bits.

No messages should have been lost at all, afaik everything converted over just fine. (With maybe the exception of registration date/birthdate... not sure...)

the new link to the forum is

http://www.mega-tokyo.com/forum

(nice and easy to remember)

Everything looks very big. but it's nice all the same. I liked the flaming icons of the previous board. :)

How would we change the agiboard.cjb.net link to point to the new address? Everybody's going to see an "illegal copy of YABB!!!! you will die!" message everytime they use it. :)

hrmm.. it's 10am on this board.. so I set the offset to +16 to reflect the time that's here (2am).. but instead it says 3am as the adjusted time..

If I try +15 = 1am!!! it's missing an hour!

There's something about time offsets after +15 that this new board doesn't like.

Also, I was looking at the very nice new statistics page... and the question I have to ask is:

How can the threads on Handyman, F#@$ Quest, and Lovers Quest get significantly the MOST VIEWS? These are three games that have not been released, will not get released and is just part of the imagination of some weird kid with no life! (who else would pretend to be several people?)

I'm still shocked.. did somebody deliberately try and increase the view count?

Man this board looks big... Oh well I guess we all had better get used to it.

I think the reason those topics had alot of views is because of their subjects. Fquest... Handy Man... I think you get the picture.

And before I forget I need to change my bookmarks.

Also I just noticed I am a "YaBB God"... are you going to change them back to "member" or are you going to let us actually have titles?

I've still got some tweaking to do... editing the php scripts and stuff. to remove post counts + change the 'yabb god' titles, change some table sizes (ie: when you post/reply, its a small box)...

and make a few more other changes underneath

I like this new look except for one thing...
the button graphics(like home, help, search, profile, etc) have "halos" around them. Not very good to have.

When I start a new topic on any forum, it also has a "topic summary" at the bottom. They seem to be about Jonozon postponing Shay-Larah.. but they appear if I try and start a new topic on ANY forum (including os dev)

is this a bug in the forum code? Should there be any topic summary at all if I'm starting a new topic?

When editing my profile, I got an error "your image is too big. Max 65x65." I lost my Naturette picture.

Please can you fix it.

Thanks in advance.

can you resize it? coz bigger than 65x65 makes the boards go funny (out of vertical alignment).

I fixed the error with a topic summary showing up on a new topic... the SQL was looking for record 0 (meaning no record)... yet in the conversion it somehow created a message with ID of 0..

So i nuked that 1 thread. (3 messages).
now its all fixed!
