Forum Upgrade Notes

[ktchamp97]

As you may know, we shut down the board for awhile this morning to upgrade to the latest stable version of the vBulletin software. There are some exciting new features that you can check out here: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=249460

One of the main upgrades is a brand new user profile page (go to your "User CP (http://www.5atexasfootball.com/forum/vB/usercp.php)" to check it out). It works sort of like a "Facebook" or "myspace" but within our user community. You can set your page so that only your friends can view your pictures, post messages, etc. You don't have to use the features at all, but I think alot of folks will have fun with it. Also within the new social networking features is the ability to create your own groups. See the link above for more details.

We'll be tweaking the settings to make sure everything runs well, but we have reinstated avatars and profile pics. Take some time to get to know the new features and have fun with them!

To edit your profile and turn the new features on or off click here: http://www.5atexasfootball.com/forum/vB/profile.php?do=editoptions

To see an example profile page, just click on my username above and select "View Public Profile"

Very nice - but I wonder if I'll make any friends, or whatever those youngsters do on Facebook.

Refer to "The Yard" (Off-Topic) board for any discussion involving the new features, questions you may have, problems, etc...

There are already a couple threads involving avatars and social groups...

Sorry if we've been a little slow on this...I need to remind myself to start checking that quite often...I'll get right on it.

If we're ever being slow or not up to par on something, feel free to shoot us an email and tell us to pick up the pace.
