New Forum Software

[Gismo]

We live and breathe again................you will have noticed by now that we are using the latest vBulletin software suite
Things to notice is there is a fully operable CMS and Blog, this is new to me also and will require some research from my side anyway but, as we move on i'm sure the more techno folks will post up hints and tips for the rest of us.

The smilies appear to be scrunched up, this a is a known bug and is being worked on by vBulletin, i'm not a fan of the new ones from VB and will rectify that as time allows.

One very important thing to know is that when replying to posts now, in order to display the smilies you either need to double click the reply button or select the go advanced button in the reply box.

For all other feedback please create a new thread so i can keep them seperate.

I will be tweaking the colour scheme and you will be able to select it if you don't like the VB default

All comments welcome, hope you enjoy the new tools available

Try clearing your browser cache and try again, although there isn't anything published there yet, you should still get to see the home page

I'm working on the new layout, you can check it out by selecting it from the drop down menu at the left foot of any page, it's called Old School NMS

Whew ok, the reworking of the colour scheme will take a while and will be an ongoing project, the aim is to try and get it to as near the old scheme as possible

I'll update the main web site to take folks directly to the actual forums and not the CMS home page until there is actual content on there. Edit, done

Also, try clearing your browser cache
