Hi Nick, I'm getting lots of 500-internal server errors (yesterday & today) when I'm trying to send a post, is it only me?

Everything is working fine for me John, no one else has reported any problems, I guess it could be your browser ?,

Thanks Nick, I'll try something different. I really like the format of this forum, I know you've got loads still to do, but thanks for all the hard work :D Did Lefora give any idea if/when the photos would be restored on the old forum?

Hi Jazz.
We moved for several reasons, firstly because the new lefora forum was crap, secondly because they removed me as administrator without even having the good manners to email me and explain why and thirdly they removed all of the links to the guide pages,
I just got this email from them telling me they have also removed all of the links from the old site linking to this site.
