[kanaia]

Many thanks for your hard work Kevin I'm sure it will all work out.

You'll have to type in your signature again using the new platform's controls, MSO. No problem there, Xenforo's control panel runs circles around the current platform's.

What happens if you have a new email address ie different to the one you first registered with.

Excellent! (Runs off to see which email he uses here.)

This whole thing has a kind of y2k feel about it.

Is there an option that makes the new site look like the old one? That would be very cool for us old guys who hate change.

It actually doesn't look that different. It's looks so similar that one of our testers expressed his disappointment that it didn't look "more modern".

Will this new forum require the use of gmail?

No, but a lot of people use Gmail, and forget about the 3 inboxes.

Bob, I sent you an email to the Gmail account you have registered here. Hopefully, you received it.

Will you be able to post pictures directly from your phone?

 

[3rdguy]

Should be great, looking forward to tomorrow.

 

[newportpipe]

Will the new site display properly in IE3 and Netscape 4.1x? :rofl:

@jon11

Yes.

 

[weezell]

Shit... (again)

 

[mikethompson]

Will all the photos we have uploaded to the site still be hosted?

@mikethompson

The photos in the photo albums section will be gone.

 

[dmcmtk]

The photos in the photo albums section will be gone.

Kevin, I guess that means the existing photos already posted in threads now will be gone, or no? That would be a great loss the knowledge base that has been created here...
:|
I'm not a computer guy, but it seems there must be a way to save the images from this database even if the photos in the photo albums section will be gone...?
