 ;) Hey everyone. Surprise! New CHL! I bet you thought you were in the wrong place :D rest assured, you are in the right place, same old CHL, just a brand new look.

But it's not the look only that's new. As you probably notice by now, the forum itself is new too. That's because I changed the software and thus, a few familiar things will be gone. I'll try to run through the changes as best as I can but there are just too many. However, it is my believe you will enjoy this forum a lot better because it's much more intuitive and - well a better forum all around.

  • Newest posts are at the very bottom of the forum. I'll try to move it sometime soon.
  • To find the newest posts since you visited last time, simply log in and on the left side, there is a link that says "Show unread posts since last visit"
  • You will still login with your old username and ID's.
  • When viewing posts, the latest one is at the bottom not at the top anymore
  • If you have a picture to attach, just click Additional Options under the post area and you'll see options to attach files.
  • New members will no longer automatically post an intro in the Introductions forum. Instead, they will receive a Private Message from me. However, if you see a new member (info on the left), by all means, post a welcome
  • Since there's so many new things, if you don't know how to do something, just ask!

Lyn, question about picture posting.  I tried to post my pics earlier and found out that it allowed 4 pics per post but all together cannot exceed 192kb ?  Is that right?  I had to split them into 2 separate postings since I couldn't get the bytes down anymore but the quality of pics are already so compromised all you get is pixelation.

Thanks Lyn, for the facelift.

Oooo, I like this new version even more- great to see new posts at-a-glance. I like the monochromatic theme too: nice and clean. Thanks a bunch!

Nish, I'm still playing around with the settings. I changed the number of uploads but that's all. I'm still re-learning the admin settings.

To everyone who emailed/private messaged me about board access, I've made a few permission changes. It should work now can you please try again? Sorry I can't reply to you personally at the moment because I'm sick (of all things) and have been pretty much in bed most of the time. It's two days in a row now and it sucks big time.
