CF goes VBulletin...

"The colors will be changed"


That's good news Frank, I'll be back overthere when that happens.  Right now it is too hard on the eyes.  I can't enjoy the banter and info while I am squinting.

Can't access the site now from Internet Explorer, so I'm not impressed.

I am wondering if they are updatingain or something. I am now getting a 404 error, repeatedly.  :(

They must be doing something. I get the 404 error too.

I was able to get in by going to http://www.cigarfamily.com/ and then clicking on "online community" But once I'm in I can only access some of the topics others I get the "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
What a pain in the a**

Currently getting site not found messages.

Was a little uncomfortable with the new set up, but that's probably just because it was new.  Seems to me that it'll be nice to have better search features, spell check that works, and more info readily available.  Will take some getting used to though.

I don't see is as a pain at all, but then I am viewing it from the admin side of the table. I think we can all probably live with out the site for at least 48 hours, and if you've never bothered to get address out of the SS system then shame on you.  :gotcha:

They are trying to migrate a board with 20K+ members, 10 yrs or so of posts from a custom BB system(when it started there really wasn't much "off the shelf" stuff) to a completely new system, and we don't pay a cent for it. 

There is a new update to SMF but I'm waiting till CF comes back up for good to install in case I fark it up and everyone has to go looking for another outlet.  :tears:

I'd say chill out and see what comes neXt.  :cal:

I like CF's old colors better.

[Knuck42]

Absolutely agree with that.  The new colors sure ain't easy on the peepers!

[WadeFillingame]

They now have a color scheme that is [u]almost[/u] exactly what I've been shooting for here.  The old CF colors were really almost impossible to duplicate in HTML so even if you tried you'd look different, now they have a standard color set and I really don't want to look exactly like them. 

Now I'm going to have to go out and completely re-think things.
