Well, we're back! Comics by Shaenon II has officially been converted to phpBB version 3!
• There's tons of neat new features-- one of the most useful is the draft system, where you can save your post-in-progress to your account, and work on it later. Just click on 'Save' instead of 'Submit', and the draft'll get saved to your account. Then, you can load it later with the 'Load' button (same place).
• You may wish to re-upload your avatar, as the upgrade did weird things to some of them. When asked to enter the size of the avatar, leave both boxes blank or the avatar will be scaled down to the size in the boxes (you probably don't want that.)
• If you are unable to log in with your old password, simply request a new one-- it'll say on the password prompt what you need to do.
• Moderators [Channing & Shaenon]: The new Moderator Control Panel link is above and to the right of the forum topic list.
• As a byproduct of upgrading the forum, everyone's time zone has been set to PST, and everyone's language to American English. If you don't live on the US West Coast, or you prefer British English, you should go to Board Preferences, in your Control Panel, and change it.
• Also in Board Preferences is the Board Style menu-- with this, you can change the entire look of the board. There's 3 different themes to choose from, so have fun...
• Finally, in the event that you run into any trouble using the upgraded forum, or there's something you don't understand, just PM me or send me an email. Thanks!
