| I've decided that its time to give the forum a bit of a facelift.
As there are a multiple changes to the forum appearance that Id like to make, it's easier to shut the JKS forum down for the 20 - 30 minutes it will take to perform the switch over.
So either tonight from about 9:00pm - 10:00pm, or 9:00am - 10:00am tomorrow morning, the forum will be offline.
Once its all done, let me know how it looks.
Cheers guys,
Lylow

| Ok, so Ive made my changes. Let me know what you think. It isnt 100% finished, but its getting there. We now have a widescreen forum, proper tabs at the top of the screen, and a slightly darker text colour. Ive kept all the link colours and quote colours that we are used to though. Its basically a different (and I hope) better look for the forum. The page background is unfortunately giving me some grief. Something has glitched and I'm unable to change it from the silvery "tyre tread" style image that was there previously. I'll be sorting it out over the next few days, fingers crossed. Let me know what everyone thinks. - Lylow | |

| Mate no idea, a few of the boys were getting kicked form a server we were on last night too. They tried to join and then would be disconnected for no reason.
And no KTA tags aren't a problem. | |

| Hey ladies.
Just a heads up. Even though this topic is 6 months old, I still havent been able to completely fix the background "silver tyre tread" image we use on the edges/background of our forum.
As part of my housekeeping mission for the clan these holidays I finally got in touch with the forum providers and asked for some help.
Theyve given me some things I can try to repair the fault which will hopefully sort everything out.
Unfortunately one of those fixes (and it will be the last one I try) requires the forum to go offline for a few hours - between 12 and 24 - while the forum re-installs the skin. So you may find the forum once again "down for maintenance".
Hopefully it wont ever come to it, but just a heads up. | |

| Re the above post:
This has been an ongoing issue for many many months - that of the forum background not loading properly. And its still not fixed.
Most of you will have never seen the forum working properly - this grey "tyre tread" patterning on the background is NOT what the forum should look like.
I havent been too stressed about fixing it, because while not the correct background it still isnt completely wrong, and as it turns out I needed to do a lot of work before I could begin the repair and even then it wouldnt be guaranteed to solve the issue.
However Ive had a couple of free hours yesterday and so I went through and did all the back ups I needed to the forum. As such I can now move ahead and try to fix the issues over the next 2 or 3 days.
Keep on using the forums during the maintenance work, as nothing will be lost and all posts will be recorded and displayed as normal
During that time though, the forums arent going to look as they do now. The text colours, font sizes, colours of the quote boxes - you name it - will appear differently. Ie: wrong colours, smaller sizes, links highlighted incorrectly, things like that.
Rest assured, it is only a display issue and none of our posts will be affected in any way whatsoever.
The change will take place later tonight and will slowly be brought back into line with our current theme during the next 48 - 72 hrs.
Cheers guys. | |

| Hey guys.
So as you can see - the forum has gotten a bit of a work over.
As I said in the posts above - this will all come back into line shortly over the next couple of days.
Hopefully in the process, fixing our rooted background.
Cheers,
Lylow | |
