Send me a button link when you get a chance so I can throw it on the main page. :D

I know, it's nice having the menu, especially when you got 1600x1200 of screen real estate to play with. But the low-res people end up with about 5 words on a line before it wraps... So I figured this would be a good compromise.

The conversion is complete and the new forum is up! Take a look around and take it for a test flight. If you notice anything weird, let me know. I will be working on the forum/website user authentication integration next, so it will be single-signon once I'm done.

Denzil has posted a couple of cool desktop screens over at the SkunkWorks. Jump over there and grab 'em both! :) The first one is a more general Strike Fighters pic: http://skunkworks.free.fr/pafiledb/pafiled...SWPreviewWP.jpg The second is a tribute to the Thud: http://skunkworks.free.fr/pafiledb/pafiled...ds/thudwall.jpg Great work Denzil! :D

Some new screenshots from Gamespot: Some sweet shots...

Cool, just send 'em all over. My email is madjeff@biohazcentral.com, just shoot 'em my way.

I knew you would like that F-16. :D Actually, my goal is to write a quick script that will rotate those logos between different aircraft images I have. Shouldn't be too hard, but I'll wait till I get the actual forum moved before I start messing with the bells and whistles. Doh! Sorry about the res, I forget we still have a few of those floating around. I'm an old CAD guy and never run less than 1600x1200 on a 21" monitor. :) I'll trim the banner down tonight, that should make a big difference. Another thing I will do is have several forum "Themes" to choose from, such as dark and light backgrounds, and a large-text version as well. You will be able to choose which one you want in your defaults. That's should cover just about everyone's likes. :D

I just whipped out a layout and tested the conversion of the existing XForum over to phpBB2. Take a look at the layout and colors and let me know what you think. All existing users should be able to logon with their existing password and username. Take it for a spin and let me know what you think. :D After I hear your opinions and suggestions I will do the real conversion, probably sometime this weekend. So no messages will be lost, and the transition should be pretty smooth. Just don't post over there yet (at least not anything you want to keep...), as the test database will be wiped and redone. Heheh, guess it would help to post the actual URL... :D ]http://forum.biohazcentral.com

Click on Profile on the top menu bar, you can change all your user settings there.

Milk for me, I'm drivin' this thing... ;)

Back at 'cha... :D

Hey, thank for the link! I'm planning on putting a "Buddy" style block on the left that has link buttons to fellow websites, so can you whip something together when you get a chance for the SkunkWorks? I didn't notice any last time I was over there. Something in the 90x40 size range would be cool. I need to redo mine, you can't even tell that's an A-10 in the background moving mud... :)

Oooh, the best news of all! Sounds like it will be a very open an moddable system! :D

Found some more info on WarRoom for Flanker. Ross McGregor replied on the Ubi forums and posted some info. Jump over and read it, it's a small insight as to what's to come. Here's the quote: Here's some links to the program as well as the manual: Executable for WarRoom for Flanker 1.5: http://members.shaw.ca/rossmacgregor/wrwin403.exe Manual: http://members.shaw.ca/rossmacgregor/WarRoom.doc

Just picked up this little tidbit over at the Ubi forum. I did a little Google searching but couldn't find anything on the Warroom engine. Anyone else know anything about it? I does look promising!

Just wanted to give the Warthog Pen a warm welcome to Biohaz! :D Biohaz will be hosting several forums for the Warthog Pen, and excellent A-10 resource site. Be sure to drop into the forum and say hello.

Just wanted to tell everyone to try out the Webchat feature when you get a chance, there's the link on the left under the main menu. It's a fully browser-based chat, no java, and it's pretty slick. I'm usually on there in the evenings when I'm online, so jump in and say hi! :D

The new phpBB2 forum allows custom uploads as well as a ton of new avatars I've scrounged. I've decided I'm going to move the forum over to the new setup tonight, even though users will have to log on twice for the time being. I expect traffic on this forum to grow quickly (I hope... ;) ) and the current XForum is just too limiting. Better to do it now then later.

Man, I'm starting to feel LOMAC is cursed. :( Carl's announcement today was a surprise, to say the least. I wish him only the best, I've learned in my own life that sometimes you just gotta re-prioritize things, and it's sounds like that's what he's doing. After all, there are a lot more important things in life than this hobby we call simming. But this has got to be a pretty big upheaval for the team. I wonder what kind of delay this is going to cause? We've already had several staff changes that caused delays in the past. I know my fingers are crossed here... :(

Sorry Dice, I did get your email (but only one of them) but was busy all weekend and didn't get a chance to reply. Too many honey-do's this weekend... :D I'll reply to it tonight when I get home.

Damn, was hoping I could do something remotely, but I'll have to look at the code when I get home. :casstet: It'll change one way or another...

It's been bugging me as well, but I wasn't too worried since I had planned on doing the forum upgrade by now. But the script is not quite ready, so I'll go ahead and edit the existing forum. BRB...

BFawlty, good to see you got on finally, I saw your post this morning on SimHQ saying you were having problems. :)

Dan, great to see you drop by! Don't suppose you could send me the latest beta to "review"... ;) Just kidding... Kinda.... :P

Cool, A-10 fanatics are always welcome here, since I consider myself in that catagory... ;) As for dragging your A-10 buddies over here, what do you think this is, a place for people to loiter around discussing flight sims all day?! Oh wait, that is what it's for. Why aren't they already here? :D Thanks for the comments Dice, and welcome to BioHaz!
