Big Changes To The Fourm

[RipCity32]

Hello SI.
For those of you who did not know, we have undergone a little change at the co-admin spot recently. Big Bid'Ness is no longer an admin here. I would like to first off say I thank you very much for your time here as one, and you did a fantastic job throughout the years, and it was not an easy task to remove you from the spot. Still one of the greatest members to ever post here.

With that said, we need a new admin. And Pugz, infamous, and I have voted on whom to promote to the spot. Basically chose between both nola and GMF. Both very worthy candidates, and I wish we could have given the both of you a spot. But we have decided to promote Giantmetfan07 to be the next admin here on SI. Welcome aboard pal. Don't let us down

And with that said, we then had a gap at the G-Mod spot. On choosing who to promote there, we decided to go with someone who has had experience with the spot in the past. Thus making this a fairly simple selection for me. WHO-DEY-BENGALS_14_18 will serve as the new G-Mod to partner up with nola. Once again, welcome back to staff man.

In addition to all that, you can obviously tell the board when through some major changes, as we have upgraded to the latest version of IPB. Unfortunately, we no longer have any skins because they were not compatible with the new IPB. Just bear with us through these times, it's going to take a bit before we get things going completely smooth again. Just like switching from the IF to IPB, it's going to take some time.

Currently excited with what we got going here. Expect some cool, new changes to the board. And as always, let us know if you guys have any suggestions.

Thanks guys.
-Rip

Congrats to GMF on becoming the newly added Admin!

Thanks for the opportunity once again. It was good for me to have a little break as far as this goes so it should work out well.

Sorry about the offline mode guys. We were trying to fix the skins so the site would look better. But as of right now we don't have all of our old skins and we are in the process of trying to get them back. Also it would be great if some of our GFX members would help in rebranding the site by making us new skins. Thank you and sorry for the inconvience.

What we are looking into guys, is possibly trying to revert back to the older version we had.
While we do that, we are going to try to make a site for us admins and graphics makers to practice on that way we know the ins and outs of the new version. Then when we are all set, and have a skin made for SI on the new version, we will make the jump over there, and things will go much smoother.

Hopefully we can do this, no promises. But it's certainly what we would like to do.

why go through the effort of making a whole new site for people to re join?
It's honestly not that bad, just takes time to get used to.

No what I mean is, we revert SI to the old one.
Then we make a new practice site for skin makers like you and whomever else. As well us the staff, so we can learn how to use the new version of IPB.
Then when we feel comfortable about using the new version, and have a skin ready to go for SI, we will change SI back to this version of the IPB. Not making people join the practice board.
Only people who will sign up for the new site is those we feel need to practice using it and whatnot.
