Hi everyone!

You might have noticed that the site is under some heavy work, the most obvious upgrade being the new layout.

There will be some maintenance in the Library too. So, if the order of 'latest articles' shown in the homepage seems a bit scrambled, with lots of old articles showing up as our 'latest' don't worry. It's not any sneeky goblin or filthy orc messing with our system... its just good old me. :oops:

It will take place this evening and, if needed, tomorrow night. It will be over soon and all willl be back to normal in the end... or so I hope.

It's interesting reading over some of the older jewels in the library, brings back memories from when they came out years ago. There was a link in the Tomes of Wisdom containing all the really really old articles (most didn't contain images), have they been erased?

The old articles we all hand-coded in HTML and it would have taken me weeks to re-do them all to suit the new layout, so I figured they weren't worth the effort and just deleted the menu link and hoped no one would notice.

Thanks Mac for sorting out the articles, it's a big help.

This is taking a bit longer than I was expecting so I didnt managed to finish updating all the thmbnails. You can expect more scrambling during tomorrow, most likelly during the evening.

I was being carefull but, after the first twenty, you stop seeing the thumbnails. If you notice any of them misplaced please give me a nudge.

Thanks!

Thanks for working on this, Mac. The new thumbnails are much sharper than the older, smaller ones!

What's this? An Admin not fixing each and every minor detail? :shock: Alan! And I thought you spent every waking moment working to better the site! For Shame! :-X
