Did the upgrade go smoothly? I guess. You tell me. __________________ Remember that book store? Well, they became one of those books and coffee places, and now they're just coffee.

The smilies are awful, and other things are weird too. :\ The site said it'd be down for an hour...but you got it up faster, I guess. Last edited by X-3; 05-10-2008 at 08:40 PM. |

The little icons that tell you whether something in a forum is "new" are different, and it's a bit annoying, but not a big deal. EDIT: And they're back. Coolness, it's all good for me now. |

Besides the shrunken Quickreply and that, though, I don't notice anything else--all that weird extra field stuff, however, doesn't show in profiles--though I get the idea those weren't working right in the first place. |

Anyone bashing the upgrade as not having much to it will feel stupid after I am done. __________________ Remember that book store?

Unless the rules have changed. |
