Alright, I don't like downtime much, so I'm putting this thing back online whether or not it's done (and it's not). I've switched over to Subdreamer CMS and I've upgraded the forums to the almighty vBulletin - all of this is designed to make things as easy on me as possible. All this weekend I will be tweaking the site and working on a final skin and layout, as well as re-adding old content and new stuff overall. Some cool things you might like:

Integration

Your login is now good on the entire site - registration reverts to forum accounts and your forum account will allow you access to comment on the rants, post on the boards and edit the wiki. No more multiple logins or inconsistency. That was what I was going for in the beginning.

Image Gallery

While nothing is up yet, there will be an image gallery for art from the book and upcoming sketchwork, wallpapers and all sorts of stuff.

The Bad

In the import I was unable to save the avatars - so everyone's avatar has been deleted and we're all going to have to get them back up again.

If you notice any issues not relating to non-existent content, if your password doesn't work, if the board says you have been banned or some nonsense, please email me via the contact link and I will get back to you promptly...I will be working on the site constantly for the next few days so this is by far not the final look. If you have any suggestions or ideas, please post them here on the boards - I'm always up for insight.

Thanks all and sorry about the downtime.

The downtime's no problem... and the new site looks awesome.

It will look even better when I actually get some coding in and more stuff up on here. Actually, looking at your post reminds me that I need to enable code on signatures so that they show up instead of listing a bunch of html ;)

well I'm working today on getting more of the site up and running. More than likely I'm going to keep this look the way it is, judging by the response everyone's had to it. Saves me coding time (and I dislike coding). I'll probably change the forum colors eventually to go along with the layout, but for now I'm working on getting all of those links up there to actually go somewhere. Expect to see the files back up this week, the wiki in order and everything running smoothly. I'll probably shoot another mass email out pretty soon to let everyone know that it's working again so beware (I dislike using the mass mail feature). Anyways, hope everyone's well.

You change forum board providers more often than I change girlfriends... and that's just not a good thing man. It seriously makes you look like a slut ;)
