[size=18]It is 6 in the morning, I am traying to wake up and suddanly, I start my reading and something is different, there are many little icons here and there, and I am lost, except for my dear colours of the Planet Z forum? My brain asks me what is goin on, and I say to him, I don't know, it must be John that has started his upgrade... Wow, true, that's it!

New features, surprises, but I still am a bit lost.

Well comeback Planet Z!

Long life to John!!! :D [/size]

The search engine is super-fast, I writed "music download" and the list came in about three seconds... impressive.

And what about the colours?

Pretty cool, isn't it?

And without your writing codes, which may be sometimes slow

Definetely, very interesting

Cool...

Z Braking News at The New Z Times – Read on:

“The New Z Times routers have found out what seems to be the mayor update Planet Z has undergone in the last 7 years of its life” The Chairman of Adern’s finance, Mr. Alfonso D’Amora said this morning.

And he added: “We are forced to send more troops to the Music Forum, so to increase the power and presence in the area, but everything is under control, as there seems to be a mayor upgrade also in the area of Modular weapons, pretty soon by the way”.

Chairman Upgrader Mr. John Cooper said in its turn: “Well, I think that despite those minor problems I encounter with the EMS support in the “up corner” of this structure, as everybody seems to know nowadays, our prospects for next year are covered and the policy upgrade has almost finished. Furthermore, I think we will be able to cover every need in all the countries we are struggling diplomatically against and in favour, to establish our supremacy, and all the rest, as expected”.

Our Z News correspondent Kirky the Kirk in Alaska, had the opportunity to get a 20 minutes phone call with Z Chairman Mr. John Cooper, while he was in China, travelling to Angola, using a walky-talky made in Andorra; here it is the conversation:

Mr. Cooper: “Despite all the efforts and huge time investments we have done in this office and in all joined departments, notwithstanding the risks of being catch by the enemy at night and having done a great deal of planning and thinking for this structure to take place, I feel somehow unsatisfied, I want to do more”. Z Correspondent Kirky the Kirk: “You’re right maman, gooman, keepgoin maman, keepgoin”, to what he answered: “Are you really a Z correspondent?” “Yeaa maman, I’m the man”.

Specialists predict that a minority of selfish, unreasonable people will surely stand in protest against the changes made by the Z Government at the Green House, settling themselves in front of the Green House where the Z Government resides, to complain about anything they can.

The president of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez added in a press conference in Guanajuato:

“Ywa... I know, sa ma call I know the man, see what I mean? Don’t sues sue fuean and all that... that’s my point”.

The expert gastroenterologist Rupert Fartindango, said that all this will finish in a big farting party at Las Vegas, but without harm for third party opponents, despite all their stupid behaviour and ungrateful state... of mind, if any...

what is funny anyway, is this:

You cannot post new topics in this forum
You cannot reply to topics in this forum
You cannot edit your posts in this forum
You cannot delete your posts in this forum
You cannot vote in polls in this forum
You can attach files in this forum
You can download files in this forum

Why not just say "You cannot do anything in your life, you're death" :) :lol:

You guys are awesome :)

And yes, the enemies did surface! I guess phpBB 2.x is a bigger target for spam bots- we had like 5 registrations last night from porn/spam/etc. I turned on the registration "identify this picture" thing, which should hopefully stymie the bots.

I realize there's lots of different stuff here, and lots of things are a little bit different- which may take a while to get used to. But I really think it's worth it.

And don't worry- for cosmetic things like colors and font sizes, etc- we'll get it sorted out.

Cheers,
-John

lookin' nice.. has anyone noticed that the "viewed/not viewed" color change of the thread/forum icons not working? It seems to always stay the same color, and remember how it used to turn orange when there was an unviewed new item? I wonder if it's just me, or a preferenc thing

edit:
oh, I think it was because my cookie was old and I wasn't logged in.

Geek note: It's now much more similar to the (Kawasaki) Z750S forum I subscribe to (actually the only other forum I subscribe to).

Even the emoticons are identical! :-)

Very nice work, John 8)

yes, and it's more or less similar to one of my favourite forums out there, the Recording Studio Design Forum

I like the new features (colors, font dimension etc...).
I suppose they will became abused when a new "hottish couterphasish" topic will spawn... We'll see... ;-)
