I was like WTF when I saw this too.But its cool if new features are coming.and what features are coming?

[John]

I don't have a list of the specifics, but I can say that there were some features of the forum software that weren't working properly, or at all, because the skin was coded for an old version of the forum software.

Yesterday I spent most of the day recoding the skin and started from scratch with the default skin in order to make sure everything works as it should.

Some of the new, or rather now accessible, features can be seen near the top of the page in the site navigation area. One example is the drop-down search box menu and another is the quick links drop down menu.

I don't think there are any overly exciting features that will be available, but I will be making photo/image albums available for moderators soon and will extend that to the rest of the site after I have my new hosting server online.

One new feature that we'll have is a list of the last 100 most recently active threads. That will be on the front page once it's setup. I figure maybe another hour or so... I'd have it up already but got sidetracked with something else.

100 threads don't get made here that often, can the same thread appear twice?

It's not the 100 newest threads but the last 100 most recently active. So an old thread with a recent reply would get bumped up on that list. Threads would only appear once.

You can see it in action now on the root homepage: www.gfxvoid.com
