Just an FYI to everyone. ORTB should be transferring hosts in the next few days. You may experience some times when the forum is disabled to help with the transfer.

I'm hoping to have it all completed in the next few days. Cheers.

Hoping to get the www side transferred over today. You'll know when its up and running, currently it seems to just be a blank page... Lost the main page gallery at the time of the transfer, so I'll get something else up and running soon as a replacement.

Hoping to get the forum transferred over tomorrowish. Might have some downtime as a result.

Smilies are back up, and I'm seeing people trickle in. Looks like we're good to go.

Again, post here if you see any issues.

Ah yes, the articles side of the website got a new facelift and change, so right now the menus aren't linking properly from the forum. I'll work on getting those set up as soon as I can, but don't expect it too quickly.

Ah, good catch. It looks like about 25% came through though... no rhyme or reason to it.

Not sure if I will be able to restore that. Anyone that wants a avatar, go ahead and upload a new one, and I'll work on restoring them if possible to those who can't upload a new one.

No problem guys. The transfer should help keep things moving forward. Less roadblocks to do more cool stuff.

I was looking in SteveRoche's build and noticed the images aren't showning up.
Not working in FF or Chrome.

Seems like I saw some others as well but can't remember which ones.

Yeah, until Greg sends me the old attachment files, we're SOL there. That's why the avatars aren't showing up too, the forum software treats them all like attachments and stores them together. They don't transfer with the database.
