ATTN: PLEASE READ!!! Important Information about your Profile!
Did I get your attention? :evil:
I need to give you guys a heads up. We are going to migrate the new forum over here MONDAY NIGHT. The posts and your profiles and your stats should stay intact. The only thing that will change is your password!
Actually, you can use the same password, but when you try to login, it will tell you that you entered an invalid username or password. This is a security feature. Simply reset your password by clicking on the prompt "Forgotten your password? Click here!" Then, enter your email address and it will email you simple instructions to reset your password.
Its a growing pain to get you guys the features you have been wanting, like uploading pics directly to the forum and embedding videos, plus tons more features.
Get the word out.
Here are picture instructions.
1. When you come here and see the forum look like this, then the forum move is complete:
[img width=720 height=390]http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa466/filtersnow/gspf_zps49282ee8.jpg[/img]
2. Attempt to login in the top right.
[img width=720 height=390]http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa466/filtersnow/gsp1_zpsd4a3f41a.jpg[/img]
3. You will then get this screen with the warning:
[img width=720 height=341]http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa466/filtersnow/gsp2_zps2e9f3d2c.jpg[/img]
4. On the screen in the image above, just click "here" where the arrow is pointing.
5. Enter your email address that you used to register for this forum and a link will be emailed to you to change your password.
[img width=720 height=252]http://i1199.photobucket.com/albums/aa466/filtersnow/gsp3_zps85b37860.jpg[/img]
If you dont know the email you used to sign up, um... PM Finchaser. He can tell you
Also, here is a feature list of the new forum:
The ability to make forum posts, blog posts or write articles.
The ability to comment quickly with smileys in line with the thread.
Your own personal gallery. Each member can create albums and and pics. They are displayed in the Gallery section, complete with custom profile creation.
The ability to comment on pictures
The ability to rate pictures
The ability to upload pics from your computer or photobucket.
The ability to add pics to posts with the click of a button.
Thanks you system.
Ability to add youtube videos and embed them to play in the thread easily.
The ability to change the look of your profile page. ( Change the color scheme).
Activity Stream so you can easily see what all happened since last time you were on. Kinda like facebook
Quick links at the top to latest posts, new posts.
Ability to subscribe to threads.
Amazing search feature.
Clean design and easy on the eyes.
Add avatars and profile pics, including animated pics.
Plus a lot more. We are trying to help you guys have the best forum around. This new upgrade gives you guys a lot of what you have asked for. The pic upload and youtube embed are the big ones.
Here is one screenshot of the look. The gallery pics at the top is only on the main forum page. We went with shades of blue so we could all collectively will the water to always be blue, never muddy, with a hint of green for the Emerald green waters of our brothers to the East.

^^^ Here is the ADHD version.
1. When you see the forum colors are blue attempt to login.
2. When it says login failed, click "Here" to reset password
3. Enter your email address
4. Check your email and reset your password.
It will literally take 2-3 minutes at the most.

[font=comic sans ms][size=12pt] If you are not sure of the Email address you used to register, login and click ”Profile”, click “Account Settings” and the Email address you registered with will appear under your Username.
[size=18pt]This will only work before the change over![/size] You won’t be able to send a PM either.
If you wait too late, my email is "finchaser@live.com".
See ya on the other side!
