Forum software upgrade

Post by LanikSJ »

Folks,

I noticed phpBB3 is updated to RC8. Usually its a smooth transition not this time there are quite a few theme, template, style changes. I'm going to upgrade the forum on:

Tuesday, December 11th 02:00 am PST

It should take no more then an hour. According to my site logs that's the least busiest time around here. During the upgrade all the forums will be closed.
After the forum upgrade is complete everyone will have to perform the following:
  • * Clear browser cache
    * Clear temp files
    * Restart browser
The above will insure we experience the least amount of problems. I've already tested some things in on my test board. Everything seems to be working okay for now.

If you have any questions please let me know.

OMG, Rich.

This is the creepiest picture on the photo site.
At first it looks like she is holding a dog's head with no body (Michael Vick?) :shock:
