Megomuseum Community Upgrade

[MIB41]

Where did the gallery go to? I'm not seeing it.

Wow! The place certainly DOES look different, but I like the changes even though they'll take some adjusting! The only constant in life is change and the same holds true here! Looks good, fellas! Give yourselves (or your webmasters) a pat on the back!

Please feel free to keep the reports coming and let us know what your thoughts are. All we ask is that you be patient and gentle with us.

We'll get some more acceptable color schemes working ASAP and we are working to get the User Gallery and Arcade back online.

Mixed reports on speed, I'm noticing mixed results on my own machine at various time of the day. No idea what that means yet.

Blogs are fun! I'm gonna try to use it. How does it show up to the general browsing 'guest' public?

[HardyGirl]

1) This will take a LOT of getting used to.
2) I hope posting pics will be direct and not going through Photobucket
3) A shade of tan will be nice when it comes. I hope it will be soon.
4) A blog? Hmmmm...
5) Thank you guys for doing all you can to make MM a postive and fun experience for us all.

I don't like change. Just being honest.

It's not terribly unfamiliar to me, though, as I'm part of other forums with similar layouts. I hope a new skin is coming, though.

I will get used to it and I can already see a lot of stuff that is improvements and such. I think the Blogs feature is neat. I'm sure forum upgrades were needed, but some curmudgeons like me take a while to get adapted.

At first I thought I accessed the wrong site or something. Darn internet, always changing things.

It is weird when you've been use to one format for so many years and then you wake up and feel like your brain ain't working. I'm sure this is going to be a bold and positive step forward for the Museum.

Hmmmm....

It looks all weird and blue and ipod-esque.... but so far it works. No slow down on my system.... which runs XP.

They will return, we need them.

Guys, be thankful the Museum is still letting us post and read while they're updating and upgrading.

I'm sure this forum will change for the better 100% by the time it's done

keep your shirts on guys and just roll with it for the next few days

agreed. If there was any slowness, I'd imagine it was server drives striping or something. That database must be huge.
I haven't seen any slowdowns on either Mac, PC or iPad.

One of the first things I went to do was change my skin, but as Scott said, it's all still new.
Just gonna take time and patience :-)

Okay, I have a nice earthy template for you now. It's still a bit of a mess, but hopefully it will sooth your retro nerves until the kinks are worked out. It's not exactly Retro-Tan but it's as close as I am going to get today.

Select Seventies Child from the bottom left drop-down menu.

And I got our old logo back for now, still have to figure out how we got them on all the subforums.

neat how something as minor as a change in color will make people feel more at home.

I like it ... just one suggestion ...

Can you change the color of the lettering for the links for 70's Child ? (Blog this post, Reply, Reply with Quote)

As it is they blend too much with the tan background

[megoscott]

I know, I am trying to track that down right now. They think they make this easy...but they don't!
