Oh Gary! The site looks different? Archived, perhaps?

M'kay, m'kay, I'm kidding. I can read. 

If you want the forum banner, I still have it saved on my computer.

Yes, I'd love to have it!

If anyone has anything they can recontribute, please send it to gary335@twctodayforums.com. This new e-mail address is where I'd like all my TWC Today related e-mail to go.

Also, an update: I've managed to put all the Flavor pages back together. I'm still working on getting the playlists pages back up, and continuing to work on the rest as much as possible.

Does anyone remember where or form whom I got the file upload form? the contact form? Perhaps both were available somewhere on the web?

Gary,

Here ya go.

Matt (ErnestoAlert)

For those interested...my username is derived from Tropical Storm Ernesto's Storm Alert fame. As most know, this was a ridiculous move by The Weather Channel, considering Ernesto was quite weak. The name is intended to be taken in a sarcastic tone.

Wasn't the old logo bigger? Looks like you shrunk what the other Matt gave you.

Try saving the BMP as a PNG, GIF, or JPG. BMP isn't the best format to use on websites.

Yes Matt I did shrink it, because if left at its original size it mad the SMF half stretch way off the page. I would think that I had to do the same thing before.... :thinking:

Thanks Billy!

On a different note, as you all may or may not have noticed, the site is currently using the original nav buttons. Thanks to Billy, I believe I've located the person who made the second set of buttons and have contacted them, Hopefully, if it was this person I'll have the correct buttons up soon.

I've put the png banner up, but as you can see, it causes the SMF side of the top to go WAYYYY off the screen. Anyone know any way to correct that without shrinking the banner?

The problem is that the old forum did not have that "simple machines forum" logo on the right.

And I've figured out how to make it so that it doesn't! Take a look!
