The downtime is finally over!

I have been having some minor server problems, leading to my attempted repair work which brought down the server. But the good news is that after 16 hours of painstaking work, our message board (and indeed our web site) are running at 100% total efficiency! I am feeling pretty good right now.

Here's two things that did not work before that work now:

E-mail from the board. Go ahead and mail your friend or subscribe to that topic. All e-mail sent from the board will now go through!
Custom avatar uploading. Want that cool image off your favorite web site? Now you can upload it to this board as your avatar! Note my sweet new TARDIS avatar.

Hope you all appreciate my work!

Very much appreciated Danny, also can you show me where you got that Dr. Who avatar so i can go and find a Dalek one from the same source.

I found it in use by a member on the Outpost Gallifrey forums -- maybe you'll find a similar one there. If not, find a picture you like and I'll make an avatar for you!

Thanks very much!! I found a Dalek image here, if it is possible to make that into an avatar. Thanks.

Here you go.

Ross Hendrie · #6 March 24, 2005, 5:36 PM

Thank you!!!

Danny Stewart · #7 March 24, 2005, 5:41 PM

You're welcome. Can you figure out how to set it as your avatar or do you need help?

16 hours, wow I am impressed. How many days was it spread over?
If you arn't busy, tired, just not wanting to help etc, I seem to be having some difficulties in uploading an avatar, I can't see where I am supposed to upload it, perhaps there is some sort of problem, but I don't know, could you please help me? What I see at what I think might be the right page.

Danny Stewart · #9 March 24, 2005, 6:10 PM

I fixed the avatars for you, Drex. And it was spread over about two days.

Bajoran Rogue · #10 March 24, 2005, 6:26 PM

Thank you for fixing the avatars. Two days, wow, that still averages out at a long time per day, I am really impressed.

Ross Hendrie · #11 March 24, 2005, 6:37 PM

Yeah me too, well done Danny.

You're welcome. And yes, it was very tiring, but at least it's all working now.
