The Semper Fi skin was released with this websites software version IPB 2.x. We recently upgraded the software to IPB 3.x.x and in doing so EVERY Skin had to be completely redone. At this time, I've completed the Original Theme, OFF Theme, and I'm about to release a DARK Theme for those that prefer to view a darker page. I still have plan to complete the Semper Fi Theme and More, but it has been put at the bottom of a very large To-Do list for the moment. I'm positive you will see them all in the coming months, and I will announce each new themes arrival. Mike

Gentleman, The skin is installed ...as you can see.... The Skin is set for the OFF Forums, so if you venture out to the Blogs, Gallery, Downloads it will revert to the CA Original theme... ***UNLESS*** You go to the very bottom left of the forums, and change your Theme to "Over Flanders Fields". From that point, all forums, blogs, pages, downloads, etc....should have this theme. If you have BUGS, or find images that don't play well with a background color... let me know >>>>>> HERE <<<<<<< Enjoy! Mike

If you see anything concerning the forum skin(s) that are out of the ordinary, please post them here. There may be a few colors that are not correct, or images that don't display will on a particular background color. I'm tried to cross check as many things as I could while working on several skins at the same time, so I wouldn't be suprised if there's a bug or two, but overall I hope you enjoy it. Mike

When you read a topic you'll notice that in the lower right corner there's +'s and -'s. Those links allow you to set the importance of a topic or reply by rating the reply helpful or not. It will also effect a members reputation points.

The same drop-down menu should appear at the bottom of the lo-fi page. You can change this back to IP Board, but it does not automatically reset to HI-FI. You must hit the GO button and it will reset.

Here's a helpful thread that may help others. For Instance......Did you know that you can now post MEDIA by using the MEDIA tag >> <<in the editor? You can simple click on this tag.....enter in the URL to any of the following media links: Flash Movie/Game Flickr Image Set GameTrailers Google Video MP3 MySpace Video YouTube And then enter and post. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zz2PpEIbfv0&feature=popt17us03

I was just going to mention this same one.

Yes, your old link should work just fine once the dust settles. You are probably taking a path to http://combatace.com which is directing you to a splash page while work continues on the new front page of the site. There will be some incredible features there once complete. M

Done

Thanks. Pleasure to meet all of you. I hope everyone has had a chance to read my post. Here's a little sneak peak of your forum skin.....

Yes. You WILL have your skin back. We wanted to get the "basic", "sterile" forum up as soon as possible so everyone could still communicate. We are continuing to work on porting everything over....like the Downloads and Gallery....but getting everyone back into communication was the utmost importance to us. You will have your skin back very soon. PM me if you need my address to send me beer. Fates

No...this isn't it. http://forum.combatace.com/index.php/topic/46027-heads-up-my-friends/page__view__findpost__p__330986

Actually, J.R. Gibson Racing Engine: 449 cu.in. Proline Race Engine-(all Aluminum) 449 Turbo Chargers: Twin 88's Approximate HP: 2500 at the wheels Car's Best Performance to Date: 7-07-09 1/8 Mile - 5.08 @ 155 mph 1/4 Mile - 7.59 @ 204.77 mph All of this......On Street Radials. Yes....the car is street legal. This is in the U.S., and He competes closely when others that have beatin him in the past, so the "title" gets passed around every now and then. A company I do work for sponsored this car in July, and I did the graphics for the wrap that is on it, as well as a shirt design.

(note that a sharp rise in the use of sarcasm may change one's circle of friends) * Unless you're writing a long sarcastic rant, it's most effective to highlight a phrase or two in a sarcastic font than to write an entire note in it. * Bold a sarcastic font for really sarcastic comments. * A sarcastic font is especially useful when writing to others in a foreign language. They may not understand what you're saying, but they'll know it's sarcastic. Examples

Yeah....he fraken passes for the Vikings now. WTF? http://espn.go.com/

Stupidity and Lack of Common sense are two things that every country has in common.

I hope their kids don't follow the dark side.

Actually, technology is a wonderful thing.....and.....it's been around for some time. I used to have an 442 that had a his/her's shifter and it worked quite well. Today, My Charger R//T has near the same thing. The old Slapstick. I can use a DiabloSports Predator tool( http://www.diablosport.com/ ) to change the shift points, rpm, and many things. IMHO, it's better and faster then any clutch. Not that I don't like it old school, but technology has come a long way.
