Yeah it's been out for a while. I think Chris runs the hosting of that site so it's his call.

Yeah, I don't think Chris bothered to renew it back in August when it ran out.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Also, this seems like a good place to bring it up:

Invisionfree has the option of converting forums over to a "newer" Zetaboard set-up. I was toying around with the idea of doing this.

So we could get:
-New, updated look to the boards
-All topics and such would seemlessly migrate over
-The current invisionfree URL would still redirect to the new board URL so no one would get lost in the transition.

Of course if people are fine with the current board look, that'd be fine too. I just wanted to put it out there since it was an option and gauge the interest.

I'm willing to give it a try. =) Besides, it's not going to affect how the forum works, it's just a bit of show.

Okay so we have two people on board with the idea.

Anyone else have any input. Only because I can't change it back if we make the conversion.

Eh, I think it could use an updated look if you ask me. AFAIK several things are out of date here.

One roadblock I was running into was that I didn't see any forum skins that I was really wild about. I'm still looking around and it's still possible I'll transfer things over.

Could it be possible to edit a skin or create a custom one?

Possibly, if I knew anything about writing in code and was artistic in any way. :P

Ah, but I *do* know about writing code. Some code, that is. :P Artistic, well, I could find something most people are happy with.

Is it HTML?

It appears to be Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), judging by whatever F12 does. I might be studying those in my second semester of college, so I might be able to offer a hand if needs be.

Ah, CSS. I've studied through that already along with HTML5 and a bit of JavaScript. So yeah I can probably get something going if you'd like, Josh. Provided it's alright with Chris. :)

Also any help from Nick would be appreciated. ;)
