It took me ten minutes to become semi-pro using this awesome new layout when it first rolled out:laugh:

I just hope that everyone knows to enter a username, not email in the login box.

You can now login with either your username or email address.

Thank you! It now looks and acts a little web 2.0

The upgrade has arrived

the old FN[/URL] is still available just in case you need to go there for some reason, like reading old mail or getting to your pictures, etc. Sorry about that. I'm on my 46th hour of awake time with 2 hours of sleep. This wasn't what I planned, but you know how plans go.[/quote]


Very nice job Mike. You should be proud.

The upgrade has arrived

Reviews are working, however it is limited. You can view, search, make comments and write reviews. I have a lot of work ahead of me. Vbulletin CMS integration is worthy and acts as a secure system, but it is a challenge no less. Stocks work as well...

I will keep you all updated. For now, the old FN is still available just in case you need to go there for some reason, like reading old mail or getting to your pictures, etc. Sorry about that. I'm on my 46th hour of awake time with 2 hours of sleep. This wasn't what I planned, but you know how plans go.

For those of you waiting, I just released the demo to a few moderators. I am still looking at Monday for the upgrade.

I'm hoping to get the demo (for the main forum and a few sections of the new FN) out to a few of you by late tomorrow. I will be working through the weekend to get this up and going. Needless to say, this is a challenge. There are a lot of programs that worked with the old FN, and converting everything is HUGE... I'm tired, but excited to get this out to everyone!

If the demo is released as planned, then I will get feedback by Monday for any issues that needs to be fixed before the final update.

Thanks for your understanding.

He's primarily upgrading the vbulletin forums software to something newer, cleaner, and most efficient.

Yes, overall it will be like what is running on vbulletin.com.

I'm still working Meya, I will get a demo out for you, Joeyman and Wanderer (and others if interested) ASAP. I'm still shooting for the 8th, but no promises. :

Yes, modern technology... The problem is that once you perfect it, it changes on you.

:still excited:

Yes, modern technology... The problem is that once you perfect it, it changes on you. Then you have to perfect it again!

Unfortunately, there will be a delay in the upgrade. Possibly a week, but I will have a better grasp on an accurate date as I move through the final phases of testing.

I have been working extra hours over the month with testing, integrating the current system and adding useful features that I'm sure will make the FN a much better place to visit. The upgrade is not a simple push of the button, but 2 systems are being combined into 1. So data integration is the biggest challenge and delay, which I am very confident will not be an issue once the new system is launched.

Thanks for your understanding!

Mike
