If the site looks weird in the next few days, it is because we are working on implementing the new design.
There are 3 - 4 different style sheets. The main site and the forums are each using different template files and style sheets, so there may be a day where the new design is showing on the main site and the forums have the old design.
So please bear with us while we work on the live site. I want to get the new design live before I leave for Chicago on Wed, and didn't have time to set up a production server.

Set up a test server you mean - this is the production server.

Looking forward to the new design, good luck deploying it in time ;D

Yep, starting to see changes. That are broken, in Chrome, but I figure that'll change as the work continues. But I like what I see.

I'm glad you guys like it.
The stylesheets alone have 1400 lines of code, and there are three of them we have to edit, and we are adjusting stuff, and making up new ideas as we go.

Wow! what a difference a week makes! :)) Been away awhile, I think it looks great and it's easier on the eyes.

It seems to have gotten better, less broken looking stuff (at least, less than I remember) but a screen shall be winging its way to you in a second.

The site looks great...a bit more punch, but everything is right where it should be. Nicely done, gentlemen.

Great work. The new color scheme makes things much more legible.
