Welcome back guys. :3
Well, we finally did it! After weeks of testing codes and making graphics and working on the layout and the staff team pretty much forcing me to stay patient and have an activity check before we revamped, IT'S FINALLY HERE.
Lots of changes, but hopefully none TOO drastic. The main change is the board layouts; they're now stacked in a way that takes up less space and makes the forum look more sleek. A few boards have been moved around, but they're in the same general location so they should be easy to find.
Avatars can now be bigger! The maximum size limit is 100px by 300px.
Something I just want to point out again: you can use the Posting Template box found under Modify Profile to save your character posting tables for easy access. They appear when you reply to a thread, so you don't have to constantly copy and paste the code in for each reply. I suggest you take advantage of that.
We also have COMPLETELY customizable skins! No more of this gray-background crap. WE CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT. >D
The rules have been updated again. All members, old and new, need to go read them. They're VERY important and mention something we're going to start from now on to HOPEFULLY help keep threads alive.
We've got a few new threads under the Law board, including the edited New Member's guide, brief summaries of the staff positions, a clickable map of SA, an explanation of the Shapeshifting gene, and a detailed description of the differences between the guilds. I'd like to thank Lore for writing the FAQ, the Gangs differences, and the shifting gene explanation. Toki put together the Adopt A Newbie program, something I hope to see take off in the future. Lore is now in charge of Sparta Shelpey, which gets its own boards at the bottom of the forum under the OOC category. I recommend signing up for both if they sound interesting to you. :3
Characters. If you want to stop roleplaying certain ones of yours, LET US KNOW. We're going to update the Character Index soon and want to be able to take care of everything at once.
Staff positions. There are two new ones. Think about that. This is all.
So yeah, I believe that's it. Again, thanks for your patience guys, and hopefully this revamp is just what we needed to kick us back into gear!
