I moved everything from the right bar to the left to create more room for the messages, since they were getting squished.  what do you think?

Yeah, it looks like the posts to the forums are getting a little more room to breath.

I reall like the new forums and layout.
Were did you find simple machine and
how hard was it to convert the data base.

well, the conversion was a pain because of the size of the database and the fact that we kept overwhelming the SQL server.  The company that maintains the hardware is really bad at managing it.  I know that IGM is looking for a new company to contract with who has support that speaks English and can respond in less than 3 hours.

SMF is part of the packages that is available with our account and once I saw it I went to their site and checked them out.  I also did a test install on another site we had out there for WoW, and played with it there.  I still use it to test mods, etc.
