Community Gamer is changing again, you may have noticed the Blog already has a new theme, and some changes have been made to the forum. However I may be ditching this forum and starting a new one from fresh, either using SMF 2.0 or MyBB, still not sure, but I have to create it so the forum can be easily, and neatly embed into the wordpress Blog.

These forums can still be used, but may not be very active. I will keep you updated.

Rob.

Sorry about being quiet past week or so, Iv had to send my PC in for a fix, possibly a new motherboard.. and while iv spent £50 to send it back to Bolton, Im getting a new CPU Cooler too.

Not sure what is happening with Hosting-Shack at the moment, but there may be some difficulties paying for their servers, hopefully it will be ok, but I may end up trying to find a new host until Rob @ Hosting-Shack can get it back up and running.

Something else I want to do is try a new piece of web software, so far I have tryed boonex dolphin, which is free, but the extensions and themes are not, so that a bit crap.. I want the forums and blog to be in the same 'thing' instead of having too separate software. I think everything now is just too messy and I want to change it. This probably wont start until the hosting is sorted, fingers crossed Hosting-Shack will be ok, they have been a great help and providing the best service on web hosting, radio hosting, and paying for my DNS thing so my domain works with their name servers.

Il keep you updated.

Just a really short sharp update post. I have made an installation of Wordpress over at http://www.cgamer.co.uk/community

This means i have removed the blog section from the forums as it is not needed any more however the forums will still be in action with updates being posted either over at the blog, or in the forums. All announcements over here will be displayed on the portal page as always.

Final changes will be made soon making links to the new areas ect

Enjoy! :]

I am just after some feedback from everyone who is registered, or even no registered, here at cGamer. Just to find ways to improve the site and add requested features.

Please complete the Survey at THIS Link.
