A new version of the forum is available for implementation.  As yet I have only done a test version that can be viewed at this link.

Upgrade

Check this out and let me know any opinions you may have about upgrading or should I leave things alone.

Note.

The colour theme/style is optional as there are lots to choose from.

Seems a little easier to navigate...

The colors need work, but it looks good...  

Like most things in technology today, if you don't keep up, then you may be left well behind...

With the upgrade there are lots of extras in the back ground.  The admin panel has a few more whistles and bells.  As far as cost goes, I don't think there is any extra.  The scheme I chose is not the default, I just used it as an example of what was available.  There was a Christmas theme which would be great for that time of year.  I'll sleep on whether to change or not as I'm sure to mess something up and maybe lose some old posts or something.  I think it's for the more technically minded than me.  Maybe I'll drop Valentino a line as he's the hacker.

I've just activated the Christmas theme, it look OK.  From what I gather, you get a choice of 5 themes which you can activate from your control panel.  Check the link again.

If you leave the Christmas theme on I will personally fly over there and slap you myself!

Save your money, I'm home in sunny Bolton.

I've changed the theme again, it's easier on the eyes now.
