Guys, Proboards is prompting me to upgrade to v5. If the board randomly changes, this is why. Please don't panic, I'm managing as best I can, but I think it's a matter of time before they force us to change over.

Alright, I don't see anything wrong with that, it's just an upgrade so it shouldn't mess with much.

No idea when the upgrade is going to hit, but it's coming.
Edit: I'm going to take a look at a beta version. We are not required to update until Dec 31st, but depending on how the beta look goes, I may update sooner so we all may get used to the new look. I shall update everyone ASAP

So, here's where I stand: Our old site banner is too big for the site. So, I need to talk to a few of my friends and see who might be able to shrink down the file size for the old one, or make us a new one. Also, the banner is limited to 100 pixels, so this may take awhile. This is simply what I've seen to start with, will have more when I have more time to focus on the betazone Edit: Betazone Link, not for public use: guadmin.freemessageboards.com/

sounds like a plan to me, i'm fine with switching early if it looks like it'll work fine or staying until they force us to like facebook

My only real concern is that I don't like being as limited as I am on banner size. Has to be 1meg or less, so we can't have the animation anymore. Maybe that's just for the beta, but I'm waiting on confirmation on that

Alright, the upgrade goes live first thing tomorrow. Everyone get ready! We will have our banner. Be ready, the v5 site is going to look a bit different.

The converters are currently down so they can update/upgrade the converter servers. I'm holding off on starting any rp so we don't chance losing anything after the upgrade.

Converters are back online, they're saying that boards take roughly 2-4 hours to convert and we are position 3 in the queue. So should be converting before the end of the day.
