The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Members,

Please bear with me as I work on switching major images on the GOF to a new photobucket account.  Some things may disappear momentarily while I work things out.  Thanks for understanding.  I will let you know when I am done.

The url changing is complete.  All major images have been moved over to a personal account for the GOF itself.  I needed to free up bandwith as I have many things attached to my account, and this board is just one of them, and it receives a lot of visits daily. That means a lot of images reload time and time again.  

I could not move over the background image.  Apparently photobucket must have new rules about image sizes, and as long as I don't touch the image on my personal account, its grandfathered in, so to speak.

Thanks for your patience.
-Adam

Anytime Petire. And whatever changes you need to make is fine. At least you got what you needed to get done.
