At approximately 10:00 pm CT tonight I will begin an upgrade of the forum. It shouldn't take more than an hour. This is a major upgrade (from the 1.1.x branch to the 2.x branch), and it will result in a new default theme and some new features.

As a result of the upgrade, we will lose the (17) themes currently installed. 1.1.x themes are not compatible with 2.x. If I have time, I may try to find a few additional themes to install, but I make no promises. We can slowly add new themes again over time. A lot of work has gone into make the default 2.x theme look nice and be user-friendly, so it shouldn't be too horrible to use. I happen to like it a lot. :teeth:

I'll post updates in this topic as I go. If you notice anything weird after the upgrade, please post a description of the issue here.

COOL! Upgrades are always good unless it's from Microsoft.

lol Actually, updates from Microsoft are vital, because they release stuff before it's ready. :teeth: But yeah, upgrading is always iffy until they get some updates out (Service Packs FTL).

The new look of the board is going to take some getting used to.  Came on tonight and had to do a double take to make sure I landed on the right site.

:teeth: In my defense I did warn you guys it would look different. lol

Installed a bunch of themes. Feel free to play around with them and choose a favorite (or don't, I don't really care). :teeth:
