Ozhonda upgraded and other important information.

[wynode]

First things first you've probably noticed that we have the default vB template .

Reason being is that i've upgraded to the latest stable version of vB and in the process of re-uploading a fresh copy of the template. But this isn't a priority. Having the site back up is.

Things to note since the site was last running:
1. The vBgarage has been removed.
2. The Gallery has been removed
3. The Arcade has been removed.
4. Smiles are missing - I'll be working on this over the next few days.
5. Some avatars are corrupted - this happened during the upgrade and you will have to re-upload your avatar.

All of the above has been in order to reduce the chance of there being security holes and it also makes upgrading a lot easier as all of the above were 'hacks' not supported by vBulltin. I have all the pics from the gallery stored on CD so I will upload the pics (as a lot of the DIY pics were stored there).

Changes to look forward to:
1. Attachments will be enabled for ALL users as a substitute for the gallery.
2. No new user registrations till 28 June 2006. New registration will be enabled again after this date BRIEFLY so get in quick after this date!

3. No registrations (or changing your current email address) to one from a free email provider (such as hotmail/yahoo etc). This is so we can stop users randomly signing on and so we can track/report activity/abuse easier. All ISPs provide users with an email address and you can use this.

We are going to focus more on building a community rather than have an influx of new members such that we can control the direction of the site. I'd like the focus to be on quality not quantity.

I will be updating the little differences since we were last running bit by bit in this thread.

Wynode edit:
1. Updated #3 in the 'changes to look forward to' section.
2. Updated #2 in the 'changes to look forward to' section.
