bitPimps Make-Over!

Post by **CaboWabo** » Sun Jul 25, 2004 7:22 pm

that's right - we got our hair did and our nails done, and mo'.

here's what has changed on the site:
- many code changes.
- slight, yet effective re-design.
- new homepage feature, Ride of the Month.
- better search capabilities in Articles and News sections.
- new host (big bonus for everyone), hopefully a faster and more reliable server.
- more user gallery space.
- many seemless changes that most users will not notice, but they've helped us greatly in many areas.

I've kept in tact as much as possible (almost everything), though there are a few things I've noticed during testing:
- most pimps who have uploaded their own avatar will have to re-upload their avatars, most of them are missing.

that's about it.
I've tested as much as I could.
if anyone happens to notice any new bugs or freaky things happening, please let me know as soon as possible.

I hope everyone enjoys the new changes, overall - even though it was a pain in the ass and caused a few more hairs on my head to fall out - this benefits us all and I think we'll see those benefits immediately and continue to see those benefits as time goes by.

thank you for your patience.
now back to the show!

Nice job Cdub....

I noticed the ride of the month on the Home page Immediately and liked it. Maybe its me, but pages seem to be loading a lot faster now too.

Edit..Nope it's not me, these pages are flying

Bug:
Galleries
Registered users will not be able to upload images yet.
I'm working on getting a piece of software installed on the server to fix the bug.
I'll make a post as soon as the Galleries are able to uploaded to again.
Shouldn't be long.

Thanks
