Latest Forum update!!!
« on: November 09, 2009, 12:00:24 PM »
Here it is, the newest cool looking update the the Simple Machines Forum Software.  I really like the new look, smoother and less harsh.  Let me know what ya all think!  There is a LOT of higher end protection going on behind the scenes also  :WOW:  This is an all go upgrade!!  But again, let me know what you think and if you have any issues with anything not being there or not showing up correctly! :o

PLEASE

 just do like I do and bookmark the forum..

http://ectrr.com/Gab/index.php


also, if you're the kind who just types it in, try typing ECTRR dot COM backslash GAB and auto fill from your web browser should enter all the rest for you and jump right to the forum... DON'T enter any WWW anywhere!

can't really make the forum the start page because the forum can't be the "index dot html" page.  when you type in www dot whatever dot com it will go to their server and look for the file index dot html. the forum isn't html per say but a perl script which I have to point to ..."index dot php"  there is a way around it but I don't know enough scripting to figure out how it's done.  sorry.  :undecided:

I went in to the Bookmark page and double checked it.  It's exactly as you wrote above and as the address bar has the forum home page.

so what's left?
