Hi All,
Just a reminder that the forum upgrade is happening at 10am (UK time) this morning.
It would be helpful if everyone could finish any posts they're working on and log out 5 minutes before then.
Thanks,
Webmaster

Hi All,
The upgrade was completed slightly ahead of schedule, with the forums open again around 11:20 UK time.
There is currently an issue with how flash files are being displayed (not showing 'inline' correctly) which we are working on.
Thanks,
Webmaster

I am missing the GO button at the bottom for the quick navigation that would take me back to the forum that I left to read a particular topic. I would like it if we could have that back please.

Hi Eric, the JumpMenu in version 4 has no need for the GO button so vBulletin left it out - it will automatically jump to the selection once you click it.

Isn't it time to remove/merge some of the sticky topics in the main forum?



The moderators who were too precious of their sticky threads to consolidate them in the past have moved on, so please save us all the scrolling.

PS: the nasty thumbnailing and high JPEG compression of uploaded PNGs should be retired too.

Ah, such finesse.
