I just did a big site upgrade. The look of the site is the default forum template -- that will change over time. However, it appears that most of the functions are working ok and that your beloved forums are back online. Check out some of the new features.
I will still be gone for a bit and will only get to work on the look of the forums here and there. Please be patient as the upgrade process is completed -- there may be an occasional glitch or two. Thanks in advance for your understanding!
Before I head off on my vacation, I am doing some much-needed upgrades. Hopefully the site won't be down very long, and then it will be smooth and shiny!
I apologize for the temporary inconvenience.
This is Lee Ann, with just a brief note. I will be traveling over the next 10 days and will most likely not be checking my email (or doing so very rarely). This means account activations will be put on hold or significantly slowed down. Please be patient and I apologize for the inconvenience.
Happy Fall / Autumn everyone!
