First impression of new board

[stovebolts]

So,
I know that right now we are still working on the board and we have a lot to do before it's where we want it. For our members who were on last Saturday and Sunday when our database started crashing, I'm sure you'll understand that this migration came about a month earlier than planned.

Well, with that said, what do ya all think of the new digs! Personally, I think it's pretty cool. And for those that are going to ask about the home page http://christianforums.net we have big plans for that page coming soon.

 

[WIP]

I think it will be nice once I get accustomed to the change. Still learning where things are and how things work. Thanks for all the hard work getting this up and running.

Hey, I've won 4 awards and it says I am addicted.
What does all that mean?

[Claudya]

, but still getting used to it, too.

Haha, this forum has an achievement system. That's cute.
I'm "addicted" as well. ;-)

@Claudya
Just because I could

So what do the US government and the CF.net staff have in common these days?
They screwed up and had to shut down their service.

Sorry, couldn't resist.
I realise it probably wasn't even you guys that "screwed up" the old board.
If only your government could fix their stuff as quickly as you did fix this board...

 

[stovebolts]

Ohhh that was bad @Claudya! (but I secretly wonder how many likes you'll get for it lol) You can "Like" can't you? It's to the far right.

Where's @reba with her rolling pin! Or an old shoe!

Claudya, you are so witty!

By the way, which member of the chess team are you?

 

[Claudya]

Thanks. But StoveBolts was right, it was bad. (Bad jokes can still be funny though.

)

Well actually I "am" (or want to be) the heroic white pawn at the right edge that is now cut off. Looks like we need to re-size our avatars.

 

[Rollo Tamasi]

You sound like a martyr.

 

[reba]

Stovebolts, you forgot to pack the rolling pin

 

[Claudya]

You sound like a martyr.

Well kind of. :
That chess picture has a number of possible metaphors or interpretations. If you do a google image search for "finding your purpose" this image is among the first ones google will find. That's the meaning it has for me: I'm seeking for a purpose in life that can give me the strength and the will and courage to face and defeat the difficulties of life (represented by the black chess team).
Under extremely unfortunate circumstances martyrdom may be the inevitable result and consummation of a purpose driven life. Of course I don't want that to happen to me, but I'd love to have something in my life worth dying for.

Stovebolts, you forgot to pack the rolling pin

Hehe look, reba, I have it:

 

[reba]

I like the new look a lot! Looks much cleaner and nicer I do think that the very light grey on a white background isn't the best choice, but I guess that's just something we'll have to get used to! Next to that it looks great
