Photics is on a distinguished road

Progress Report...

The transfer project has begun. While the site looks quite dull right now, I'm quite happy with the technological changes. Here are some of the highlights...
  • Search Engine Optimized Links
  • New features with vBulletin 3.7
  • One system... with blogs for everyone!
  • An integrated chat room!
I really like the chat room. It uses the same login & permissions information as vBulletin. If you'd like to test it out, you can go here...

To Do List...
  • Upgrade to vBulletin Gold 3.7
  • Import old Posts... and maybe old users
  • Install a new vBulletin Theme
This really isn't a lot of work. It would already be done, but I'm actually waiting for the upgrades to be released. The new theme might happen as soon as this weekend. The other stuff, probably the weekend after that. I'm figuring that the site should be back to normal by the end of the month. No, not normal, BETTER THAN BEFORE!


The Good Part...

I had a little chat with Gaile a while ago. I can't really go into details right now, but I will release a little bit of information. When this site is back to normal, I can start preparing for a Guild Wars fansite contest. The prize should be... interesting
