    New Forum Software

    Hi Everybody,

    We just upgraded the forums to the latest version of vBulletin, which is the first upgrade we've given the forums here in more than five years. There are a lot of new features on this software... so many in fact that it would take me a while to list them all. In time I will hopefully post some threads about the new features and how you can use them. Until then, you can look around and find a lot of neat things.

    If you notice any broken links or things that don't work as they should, please post in this thread.

    Thank you!

    is there a way to allow a user to set the time to something other than GMT?

    JazzDad,
    Thanks. Found it. Noticed that the Date/Time of posts doesn't show up in the bar along with the Post number. Not sure if it's a problem on my end or not.

    ps,
    when I saw your updated pic, I figured I'd thrown one on of me. (I'm the one with the helmet.)

    The link in my browser quit working. I had to go to the forum manually and update my link. Really took a lot out of me, but I survived.

    Forum looks real nice.

    I'm considering changing from Snitz to Vbulletin on my pump and well forum. I'm just a little nervous about it.

    Muhammad, I like the new format, a good step! Just one thing, why do I get the HTML instead of the actual icons showing up in posts? Like this one ---
    "[img]/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]". Is there something I have to change at my end?
