I hate to be doing this so soon after we just came back, but it's better to do it now and get it over with, I think.

This weekend, schedules permitting, I will be upgrading the forum and website to a newer version of Invision Power Board. The Gallery will also be getting a serious upgrade (we're actually switching softwares). There's a few other things I have planned as well, but some of them are less immediate. I just wanted to announce ahead of time that the site may be experiencing periods of downtime, during which the forums will be offline, and the Gallery will be down for as much as a week while Donahoo and I re-tool it. Downtime and intermittent explosions (hah, I'm kidding... seriously...) should die down by Monday at the latest, and the Gallery should be back up by next Friday.

All anticipated completion dates are subject to change due to unexpected changes in schedules and general competence of the webmaster .
