Well.. I accidently broke the forum while upgrading. sorry.
Avatars were not lost but my modifications to the templates were. these modifications included the exotica logo at the top left (which I will replace in a minute) and ruining the template code with crap html for amiga browser. However, I will leave them be this time. Amiga users can enjoy the interesting black on white for now (Amiga browsers NEED some css support)
