Hey, all. As you've no doubt noticed, SD has been upgraded to the new ZetaBoards format, and consequently lost its former skin and banner. This happened sort of unexpectedly, but I'm currently doing everything I can to try and get the skin back. A few other things have changed as well, and if you'd like to report any bugs/glitches or have questions about how to use the new format, send an email over to spartandominion@gmail.com. The board should continue to function in the same way, at any rate. -Tru7h |

Background's back too, now - I'm just rebuilding the skin. It'll take a while, but you should slowly see the site returning to normal. =) |

Is it possible that we could switch it back to the old, invisionfree board? Or is this Zetaboard thing permanent? |

No switching back, unfortunately, and it turns out ZB skins are in a different (and not backwards-compatible) format from IF skins. It'll take some getting used to, but in the end it's a beneficial transition - the boards have far more functionality now than they did before. |

Agreed. ZetaBoards is an improvement from InvisionFree, however it's pretty lame how the skins are not compatible. I hope you can get it worked out, Tru7h.  ...The smilies are way better on ZB.

lol, Even though its an improvement, they should have warned us first. And plus the site when down for like a week before it came back online. |

I'm curious as to how this happened. What did SD do to get this upgrade? lol... I'll avoid doing it with Ingenuity. EDIT: Oh, I got it. I went in and checked the Admin CP and there is a section called "Convert to Zetaboards". When you go to that section there's circles you can check that say to either convert the board over or to not convert the board. I had not even noticed that. Edited by Jana, Jun 15 2008, 09:59 PM.

I never confirmed the upgrade, which is why our skin's still broken - if I'd known this was going to happen, I would have backed up our skin and begun to convert it a long time ago. It should be back to normal soon enough, though. |

I don't really like Zetaboards as an upgrade of Invisionfree. Both are good, but Invisionfree is the better format and more user-friendly in my opinion. I never saw the original skin, so I'm not too bugged at that being rebuilt right now. |
