I'm going to do some maintainance work on this board in the next couple of weeks and you may find that the graphic files turn ugly as I reset them to the generic ones (i.e. Proboard's own buttons).
The board's homemade buttons and graphic files (i.e. the IHG buttons and files) are hotlinked to IHG's homepage. This homepage will be undergoing renovation as I shift to a new design.
Also, the new message board may be shut down for a while as I shift to a new webhost. The current MySQL database and bandwidth is way to small to handle a message forum like ours.

29 July[/b] First part of the operation done. That was fast and smooth, wasn't it? So the images has been moved to the new homepage. You can look at the homepage's new basic design if you like: http:www.internationalhockeygang.org/Next step will be to move the homepage (and the new forum) to a new webhost. This will also influence this site as the images are linked from the homepage. So, when that happens, I will have to reset the images to Proboard's generic images once again in order to make sure that this board remains fully operational. I will notify you in this thread when the homepage will be moved.

The new forum has been closed until the homepage has been moved to a new webhost.
In the meantime, you can use this old faithful board.

The transfer to a new webhost is in process. It will take 24-72 hours. Do expect some irregularities at this board as well (since I cannot be here 24/7). I.e. if the IHG custom-made graphics disappear, it's because the transfer to the new host has been completed. I then just need to upload the site to the new host. I will look after it, but, as I said, I cannot be here 24/7.
It will take some time before the new board goes live. After having learned about its features in greater detail, I have decided to make some adjustments. Also, right now I don't have time to set up a local MySql database and learn all the technicalities about handling it. This is required if I want to save the posts from our run-trial. I will of course take time to learn it later on, but if you really want me to save the posts from the first few days the board was live, then you cannot expect the board to go live this year (since I'll soon be back to my job).
So you should expect the board to go live again next week, but completely from scratch, meaning that you will have to register again. I hope you can live with that.

30 August[/b] Frontpage on homepage has been filled with content. Hope that doogster, Graham and Marc are satisfied with the result. Still miss some graphics from Super J to make a banner for the Polish Ice Hockey Portal. www.internationalhockeygang.orgMay take a little time to load. If you have any comments, please post below.
