So (for some reason I do not understand) the forums sploded today and our old template went bye bye. The forum works (woohoo!) but is the default template.

I'm going to leave it like this for now (hey it works!) and at some point put in a new template that is prettier and more PCM style. For now, this'll do donkey, this'll do. ;)

At least the forums didn't 'splode to the point that everything was lost.

Oh that was a hectic day :P

I second KRG's statement....

And I kinda like the look of this as simple as it is. ^_^

This style should make it less suspicious when I browse from work.

Err...I mean...when I accidentally mistake this forum for a work-related site.  Yeah.  Happens a lot.  You'd think I'd learn, huh?  Gosh, the Intarwebz are so confusing!  ;)

Well glad you like it then. We'll stick with default for a while. I don't have a lot of time lately to go in and change the settings/spice it up.

Oh man. I remember the great forum disasters of the past... Yes. Data was not lost, good point!!! :)

I also like this layout, but that could just be because its new and exciting. Change is good
