Brian Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 The software team may shut down the forum at any point in time now for an upgrade to help speed things up plus increase security issues. There is also a posibility that emoticons and special add-on's will be lost in the process but those will return after they have had a chance to do the necessary improvments. Quote Link to comment

ProjectGuitar.com Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Ok were back up with some minor changes yet to be fixed mainly in the images section. Additional changes can be seen as you look around of course. Quote Link to comment
Gorecki Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Looks like they improved the UI quite a bit. Working well for me so far. Quote Link to comment
AlGeeEater Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 (edited) Cool skin, love it. I also like the online/offline thingy too. Forum looks faster too. Wheres the smilies? Is the post count still gonna' be taken away, or can we see them like a few months ago? Good job, Chris Edited January 12, 2005 by AlGeeEater Quote Link to comment

xebryusguitars Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Great jobs guys at project guitar. Somethings will take some time to get used to for sure, but this skin is cool. Again, great job guys. I love how you guys responded to a problem and fixed it immediately. Quote Link to comment

Kevan Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Well, it's amazingly jacked on MSIE for Mac, but seems to work fine on the PC. If any other Mac users have issues, please let us know. We'll be doing plenty of re-tweaking to get the Forum looking and operating smoothly. The forum is ultra-secure now, so what happened on those other sites shouldn't happen here...*knocks on burled maple*... Sorry Postwhores- the post count goes away again (that'll be the FIRST thing I do tonight). Thanks for the kudos, and we'll get ya back up to speed in no time. Quote Link to comment
Daniel Sorbera Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 sweet, It goes much faster now. Right before the upgrade it was REALLY slow Quote Link to comment
Devon Headen Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 I guess I tried to login while the site was down, cause it was giving me a weird error. I thought PG had gotten hacked too for a minute . Glad to hear it was just an upgrade Kudos guys. Quote Link to comment
mushy the shroom Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 What kind of sicko would hack a luthery forum? Oh, and Brian, I'm sure you know this but the group icons don't show up. Quote Link to comment
Biohazard Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 The new look is cool and it does seem to run a bit faster. Quote Link to comment
Devon Headen Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Well, I thought that because reranch got hacked, and I heard jemsite got hacked at some point recently. Quote Link to comment
swirlslave Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 thx a lot for the upgrade, i found the new skin very cool but the only thing im missing right now is the * mark this forum as read * and * mark all post as read * button, those were very practical. speed is nice now also !! Thumbs up guys.... Quote Link to comment
1nf1d3l Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 i couldnt get on yesterday, it kept coming up with an error.. i was pissed Quote Link to comment
rob Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 cool, me likly very much now, at first I was abit turned off by the look, but now I love it Quote Link to comment
StratDudeDan Posted January 13, 2005 Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 the place looks great. i love the "new" look and feel of it. much more high tech, and it creepily matches the theme and setup on my comp right now...i'll post a couple screenshots 'cause it's just THAT creepy. it is, however, funny to read through all the old topics and see the little "unloaded picture" where ever there was a smiley. hehe...

Brian Posted January 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2005 Most of the original features should be back now. Today there was a second problem due to the upgrade which caused the forum to go down along with other stuff. Turns out it was the latest version of cuteFTP to blame since it had some bug's in it and didn't recognize the difference between capitol letters and small in uploading the script but thats all been taken care of. Hopefully things will be smoother now........ Quote Link to comment

westhemann Posted January 14, 2005 Report Share Posted January 14, 2005 i just wanted to mention that i notice on the new software that you can ignore specific users if you wish. i usually hear from at least 3 or 4 guys a year who want this option,so there you have it. OMG, you're completely freaking me out! I cannot concieve of our beloved 'Forever Metal' Wes ...reading the Fender Discussion Pages. yeah yesterday i bought a pair of big plastic framed glasses and a pocket protector...and i found myself humming that "big butts" song as i scanned through dungeonsanddragonsgeeks.com i think i am having an identity crisis Quote Link to comment
