As we build the new site, I will update you all as to the progress and the new features we will have. Right now, it's plain blue and white, like a standard SMF forum. We'll be getting a new and exciting new theme, though. It will still be dark in color and sleek and modern like we like it. Hoffi and Watts have already created all the boards that are identical to the ones here. Nanners and Hoffi have installed all our smileys. I created the membergroups and Nanners picked the colors for the who's online list. In addition to making everyone feel at home, we're going to be enjoying a TON of new features not available on SMF For Free. For example: 1. Personal Notepad. This is for you to keep notes in, save links to posts you want to go back and read, drafts for PM's, etc. 2. An easy, two step way to add pictures to your posts. It's option to use this is under the smileys so it's easily accessible. 3. We have a HUGE arcade. 4. The notification that you have a new PM is HARD TO MISS! It's the size of Texas. LMAO! Anyway, we're installing new mods (features) as we come across the ones we like. If any of you want to take a peak and suggest a mod, let us know! http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/ One of the great things about the new place is that we can do what we want, how we want and with no downtime. There's a community of people who are willing to help you if something goes wrong and tons of support. As we do more, I'll let you know!

Harland, what version of SMF are you using? That will make a difference in what mods can be used if members go there to check it out. Some of the older mods will not work with the 1.1.19 version so be careful and the 2.0 mods are not applicable to 1.1.19 either.

It's not complicated. It's just time. SMF set up is about as easy as they come, and if you've got a decent host, a lot of times, they will walk you through third party set ups. However, they've already gotten past the "hard" part which is launching the forum - now they are just dealing with tweaking it - and that's not hard. It's just time consuming. Only advice I have is to not go overboard with the mods. It doesn't matter how fast your host is, how much bandwidth you pay for, how how much tweaking you do - if you add too many mods, you will ultimately slow down your site and members will be crawling. So be picky about what you integrate, and open a TEST forum to apply those mods BEFORE adding the mods to your actual forum. That way you can see how each mod will interact with the others. Otherwise, good luck and can't wait to see your unveiling.
