Hey Guys,

I know that I personally don't post in the forums much, but I felt compelled to inform you guys, that the brand new XBA is only a few weeks away (hopefully sooner). Please understand that we are all volunteers working on this project. Plus, we all have personal lives to mend to.
:cheers:

I'm not quite sure what version we're up to now (lost track), but I know that you all will love the new features and design/layout, and we'll be doing a nice giveaway to help promote the new site.

I'd love to show you a "taste", but as the industry tells us..."When it's done"

Let's see. The original was that aweful black and green crap. It was lightly modified a few times until it was overhauled into the current setup. Assuming this is a total transformation I would count it as Version 3.0

Yes, it's a total transformation. Visually, it's very different. :hardcore:
Also, a lot of new features.

Hopefully, a new feature like not being able to post links unless you have 100 posts or so will apply. This will seriously prevent drive-by spammers from taking over.

That would be the initial release of V2.0 The layout has been modded several times since then to what you see here but never completely redone. I think this forum would be about version 2.6 or so.

Memories...

The site will be wider, around 960 pixel to be exact. Not all the features will be live the first day.

90% of the backend code has been completely updated. New reviews will be out of 10 instead of 5.

...a bunch of little things. Too many to list.
