Update!

Ok, the downloads section is up & running. You can access it by either the link in the left had side menu of you screen or the link at the top right of page.

I've uploaded all the FTO tech manuals such as the Handbook & Workshop Manual. So we can stop directing people to the Irish site. If there's anything else you'd like up there, just let me know.

Tonight I'll update the other download category (FTO stuff) with all the current media - like current flyer, current club logo etc in full res.

Update!

I've just repaired the themes module. So now you can click on the 'Your Account' link & go in & change the theme of the site to suit. It changes all the colours etc for those who dont know what themes are.

Just remember if you change to a theme you dont like, the standard theme (the one you are using now) is called 'Kaput'

Only problem is.... all the themes I have are absolute crap :lol: Most are gawdy bright colours. I've been scratching around for some good ones, but they are hard to find (for free anyway.) So if anyone knows the whereabouts of some good phpnuke themes let me know. Or if you have some, you can just email them to me.

Or if you're a real t'interweb fiddler & can make one, even better. We want a nice horsepower / Mitsi / FTO theme thats easy on the eyes :)

"*~delightful!~* Pride" Pink perhaps :lol:

Actually I think Ben was right, most of them look like arse. And most of them still have place holders like "some more text here" and "Streetfighter" :?

Hey Ben,

Just out of interest how much traffic does the site generate per month?

Just in case you forget, you knocked the gallery link out with the update :D

Possible to update meta tags within the admin page? Might pay to do so as all of the below seems pretty irrelevant:

Per month we see a through-put of about 15Gb

Gallery will be down for the rest of the day.

Im doing a complete rebuild of the file structure on the server.... starting from scratch on my test domain. I wasn't impressed with what last nights upgrade did & the version of nuke we were running has been patched, hacked, fixed so many times, it was f*cked... updates weren't sticking. So I've got a brand new version coming across shortly with some tricky new features.

I'll be able to tag trouble makers with flags & devil horns :D

It's a miracle :cheers:

Your work is appreciated ;)

Edit:

Actually, some peoples' avatar pics aren't being resized any more, Sammi's and mr-charisma's for example, are the hosted on the site or external?

PS

Don't worry about fixing mr-charisma's :la:
