I'm going to switch the board to new software in the near future. I'm still working on finishing some of the functionality, but hopefully everything will be complete in a week or so.

Here is the new layout:

http://www2.quiltingboard.com/t-29085-1.htm

Aside from completely changing the internals, I removed all icons and other clutter to make the pages load faster. I also simplified the layout as much as possible and increased the font size to make it easier to read.

You can log in there using your current password.

The databases are separate, so anything you post over there is not going to be reflected on the current board. But please log in and try using the board (try browsing/posting/sending pm's etc.) and let me know if you see any errors.

Hopefully, we'll be able to catch any major bugs in the new software before actually switching the board.

Right now, I just want to move away from the old software because it seems like new problems are popping up almost every week.

Once the new software is up and running with basic functionality I'll be able to add new features.

I already added a few things that were requested in the past:
- birthday listings in user accounts
- ability to search for a user on the user listing page
- ability to see if you PM was opened by the recepient
- quick reply box at the bottom of each thread's page


Please login to the new board and test it out:
