    OK, site upgrade is finished. Quite a lot has been upgraded, including Vbulletin, journal and the photo gallery. It might take a while to find for you to find all the new features.

    As part of this upgrade we decided to invite a couple of users to be involved in the testing process. This was a great help and a great success, and I'd like to welcome MAP's first two official 'Testers' (that's breakers in some peoples books!) JohnnyX and Gaskell.

    We have also increased the development team from 2 (me + Yoda) to now include WhiteWizard and KGirl. They will now help with PHP and web coding, and hopefully allow us to make even faster progress (should that be possible!).

    Thanks also to all the Global Mods (KickChick, Melanie, AndyMurray and Melanie) who have also contributed to ideas and testing for the new site, in addtion to still performing their normal role of ensuring MAP facilitates some of the best Martial Arts Discussions on the Web. Thanks also to the Topic Mod's for keeping the discussions flowing in their respective areas.

    Gosh, I feel a tear coming on. :cry:

    Oooohhh, testing. The great cornerstone of all software implementations. Bet that was interesting...;) Big ups to Johnny G and The geordie lad for taking part; isn't the most interesting job in the world...:D

    It's looking good; thanks to all whose hard work made the upgrades possible.

    Incidentally, I accidentally made a double post, and instead of showing my post twice, the software told me I was making a duplicate post, and redirected me to my first post. Cool! Was this part of the upgrade?

    Just to clarify, my duel post was an exact duplicate of my previous post, not just two different consecutive posts by me.

    Regarding the photo gallery, is that all sorted out yet? When I try to view a photo, it tells me I need to be a registered user to view the photos. Huh? I was registered, last time I looked! ;)

    What I've seen so far looks good :D Thanks guys. I especially like the profile in the journal, gives people a chance to see them more often. Just a small requst though. The old VB showed only the 10 most recent journal entries, and when the new VB showed 20 or 25 (whatever it was) I was thrilled. Now, if I missed a day, I could still see all the entries that had been made without checking everyone's journals in case they had been updated. Could we pretty please extend the list again?

    EDIT: You seem to have lost all of KickChick's entries but one! :eek:
