Date & Time

Since this is an International Community and we are trying to get everyone in sync with with the latest we decided to add a new designation of when things take place. For instance, we run on GMT but someone may join and not set their time correctly so the Post appear to be at a different time and date. To solve this we now state how many minutes, hours or days ago an event took place. The reason for this is simple... If I make a Post now it is the same "now" in China or Brazil so after a minute passes by that minute is the same in any other part of the world.

Additionally, The more recent a Post happened the more red it shows. As it gets older it darkens and then turns black. This will help you readily distinguish things just made or done.

* You Username is more apparent in the Bottom Bar so you can know you are logged in. Some Members tend to Post as Guests.

* There were many other small enhancements to each Theme which can't be placed here: correcting errors, showing more info, etc.

Tell Me What Looks Weird

Only from visiting other sections of the Community randomly to see if all is working right is the only way I discover errors. Please do tell me about them when you find them, especially those that are cosmetic such as: broken images, something misaligned, etc. Thanks.

Board Mergers

To keep everything easy to update and in one place we are moving away from Board specific Themes and just dealing with General Topic Themes. This eliminates wondering where to Post and keeps everything simplified. For instance:

All LDS related Boards is just under ONE Board now: LDS Deep Doctrine

All Computer related Boards are under TWO sections: Web Design, Coding & Client Help and the other Board Computer Hardware / Software & Games.

This system is better since a Hardware issue is rarely needed here and the previous Board looked dormant. Now whether you have a Software / Hardware issue you only need to go to one place.

By the way, in case you are wondering - all the previous Posts were moved to the relevant merged Boards with no losses.
