Software Update!!!
« on: May 06, 2009, 06:57:31 AM »
OK, please post any issues with the site that have occurred from the latest update here.
We are back up and running do to the great work of some people over at the SIMPLE MACHINES FORUMS software. these guys are all volunteers and worked late into the night to fix this so a big thanks goes out to them!!

I do know some people have lost their Avatars, Sorry you will have to repost it.

thanks for all your patience!!

just looks odd like the way it was when you first had the site up and running and some of the links don't show like the log out not that it is a big deal or anything just figured I would let yo know some of the bugs

Mac or PC? what Browser and version..  If on Mac and the reload button doesn't do it then you may have to empty your cache... it's overloaded and can't take any more stuff...  should be doing that once a month or so anyway. (same with a PC)

I've checked it with everything Mac there is.. Safari, Firefox, opera, taxiCab

PC - the techs from Simple Machines Forums checked everything.... back to IE 6 which anything older wont work anyway and is not recommended...

well, I can pretty much say it's 90% likely that it's on your end.. cause I been on 10 diff computers now and they all see it fine.. have you tried Firefox?  better off with that anyway.. IE6 is WAY out dated and IE8 doesn't work well with anything not made just for it.


did you delete your cache files? if not it will keep redrawing the same errors because they are saved on your computer that way

OK Apple buddy.. it's not you.  I just got notice that there is some minor display issues with this version of the forum software and IE6. they highly recommend using Firefox. Which I also back not just for this site but it's by far safer than any of the IE versions as a whole.
