NEW CASINO:
Finally... something to waste those Bressler Bucks on besides the Bookie. The new Casino has Black Jack, Slots, Roulette, Video Poker and 10-player Texas Holdem. Yeah, that's right, play poker against up to 9 other forum members. A red box on the right side of the Forum page will tell you how many currently people are playing Holdem, if any. If there's no box, start a thread and recruit some folks for your own game.

BETTER USER PROFILES:
Brand new and improved user profiles integrate blogs, photo albums, visitor comments, personal boasting, statistics, forum friends, forum awards , etc. You can also start or join social groups (clubs) that have their own message space and galleries. Finally, you can customize the design from your user control panel. Sample profiles: JBMoney & Shotglass

BLOGS:
They're back, but better and easier to use. A listing of the latest entries can be found on the Forum Home Page. Start yours anytime or just respond to others. Your blogs will also show up on your new profile.
Main Blog Page - Current Bloggers - Sample Blog (Pistol Pete's)

NEW DESIGN:
We moved the 'yellow bits' around and turned down the lights. We'll be adding a second, lighter, user-selectable design soon... for those folks who already live in a damp lightless dungeon.

COMING SOON:
2008 Game Tournaments - Time to give folks a second chance at those Arcade Awards. Start practicing!!
Arcade - Current Awards

Auctions - I have some old PC games I'll be selling for Bressler Bucks. Hey what can I say, Deadpools haven't been paying off like they used to. You have something you want to get rid of to cover your casino habit? Knock yourself out.

Presidential Election - Oh we're already beating up this year's batch of 'lesser of two (three?) evils'... *yawn*

In case you didn't grok as much from the OP, there's new things to screw up in User CP.

I can't wait to screw some stuff up:worry:

You might have noticed that there is also a new vBulletin gallery feature.

Unfortunately, this duplicates something we already have with the PhotoPost Galleries. I do not have a way of tying the PhotoPost galleries into the new profiles... YET. Hopefully I will eventually.

For now, it's up to you which one you want to use, but the old Photopost Gallery probably has more features than the new vBulletin one.

For myself, I have made a gallery in my new profile, but just listed a URL to my existing PhotoPost Gallery.

Good balancing job.

ty, it's holding up well.

I don't remember if I posted this but probably close to 2.5 years after we put that Trex stuff up, some of it started going bad. As in... it just started flaking away. It was not every board though and was even forming a real clear pattern on the deck.

I called Trex and it turns out that there was a bad batch, all of the same length, hence the pattern (we used 14, 16 and 20). They sent a guy out to take a look and then replaced every single board free of charge. Pretty decent customer service. Looked better when they were done than when we did it.

I'm sure the ones I screwed in looked better.

Dude you got skills with that balancing! But can the dog do tricks?
