Within the next few days our site here will probably be upgraded to the new version 5 software.As some of you have already seen, you can take a peek at it here f-106deltadart.freemessageboards.com on this BETA TEST site, which IS NOT affiliated with this REAL site. The Beta site is just for testing and training, and will be removed after I migrate this real site. I'll try and make the upgrade/migration as painless as possible and keep things as functional the same as I can for our members. Staff... things change a lot for you and I'll walk you through things, although I'm sure you'll see just how much easier things will be.

Will we be able to post more than one photo? Having a free Photobucket account would solve that single photo problem. I know that for sure. I've seen what you can do on a computer Gary. It's not that big of a deal using Photobucket, but I do understand your question. HTH... |

You guys can go to the website f-106deltadart.freemessageboards.com/ and play with it. It's all temp data that will eventually be deleted. |

I run with multiple tabs of the board on Firefox all the time, if that's what you mean, Bullhunter.  It also helps that I have a cookie set to "permanent log-in"... |

Go to the beta site and try what you're talking about. You'll see that uploading photos is a little different now, easier and you can upload more than 1.

Messaging has been greatly improved also. When addressing a message you can type in the real user name or the screen name and it finds it for you on the spot to select. So if you send me a message you can type in mow or admin.
The more I play with it the more I like it.
Few more days probably before the migration.

Starting a new thread titled IT'S HERE! Forums V5 Upgrade is NOW!! because today is the day we migrate. I hope you have at least looked at the above betazone url so you get an idea what's coming.
Staff: It's a totally different look and feel, but a better one and one that SHOULD feel more like what you're used to dealing with on other websites... more modern and up to date ways of doing things. We'll work together as you learn it... just ask if you can't figure something out.
