Just a heads up that the site will be under going a full rebuild over the next few months as I'm going to upgrade to the latest scripts. There are a few new features in the latest versions that could come in handy here. Like multi delete and ban lol

Basicly the site will have to be rebuilt from scratch and as the skins / scripting has changed alot since I built this place... I very much doubt the site will look much like it does now. I am going to keep it working the same but some features may not come back straight away, some may be removed for good. I will probally also make a few new skins/themes aswell. In other words it will work almost the same, just look different...

You won't wont notice anything different on the site until I am ready to upload the whole new deal. I will open up a test site soon so that you can play with all the new functions and find the bugs before I upgrade the main site....

I will also have a heap of new bells & whistles that will be added over the next few months once the upgrade is complete. I have a basic site made up as a test site and I've spent hours playing with the new bells and whistles... They are quite cool I thinks.. :D I think most of you will like them I reckon but Im not gonna tell you what they are just yet, I think I'll wait and suprise you all :)

I've also just added a few more "blocks" to the front page... First one is a list of all the pro riders sites I could think of at the time (sorry if I forgot anyone) I'll add more as I remember them ;) If you have a site you want added, please just contact me...

The other block is the I hate spam block, there is nothing in it for users, its just a trap to try annoy the spammers a bit in return for annoying me... :) So yer, don't bother clicking the links unless you want to add a trap to your own site...

P.S. If you have any ideas or suggestions for things you want added to the new site please post below...

Umm thats about it... :elefant:
Later

make the advance post load quicker...

like is it possible that the text box loads BEFORE everything else ?? cuz i just sat there waiting for about 5 minutes for the text box to let me type anything.. slow net atm or something i think. but if the box loaded first. then it wouldn't matter....

There is one thing I would like to see changed, but it's not in the scripting. It's your bandwith space upped to allow posting pics straight on the server, rather than having to host them somewhere else and post links.
Other than that I think the place rocks as is.

Actually we used to do that all the time, but changed to thumbnails for loading time reasons or something, that's when everyone changed to remote hosting. There's space cause you can still upload direct, just that they show up as thumbnails in threads.
