New Site Layout and Features.
« on: September 13, 2008, 04:02:59 PM »
Today I upgraded the site a bunch.  Lots of things changed which will help all of us take this site and LAN's to the next level. 

The list of thing that changed are:
  • New Forum Upgrade - The Forum got upgraded to the lates SMF beta (2.0 b4) which includes lots of new features which you will start to see over the coming weeks.  It is also alot faster then the old beta
  • New Webserver - I moved this site to a faster more powerful server that I own.  My company http://www.therealms.net/ graciously donated some space on a brand new box.  NO MORE DREAMHOST
  • New DB server - While we moving we upgraded to a new DB server as well, no more waiting for page refreshes!
  • New Content Management System (TCMS) - TCMS (Tiny Content Management System) was developed by me over the last few years.  It is designed to be fast and completely modular.  This was the first integration with SMF I had done with it and now we can add all sorts of modules to bring more traffic to the site (the LAN module is still in development but has been activated to give you a taste of what it will do)
  • New Theme - It was time to shed the old younger look and move on to a more adult, easy to use look.  The base theme was created by DzinerStudio but was heavily modified to work with SMF 2.0 beta4 and TCMS
  • WAP - Significant increase in Mobile Browsing Speed

All that being said, there WILL BE some bugs, please post them in the bug report section.

Awesome work Popsikle.  The new layout definitely looks more professional and, as you said, adult.  This site wouldnt exist without your efforts.
