Ah shucks, thanks Starry. So far, I've gotten a few things working at home, such as if a new person joins the site, and says hello in a separate thread instead of the main one, I can now merge the threads, which is something the software never had before. I also have in place protection to automatically reformat very long webpage links, so if you post an eBay link to an item that normally causes the screen to scroll horizontally, this will just truncate it, and create a few lines instead of one long one.
There are plans in place to come up with some new graphics, automatically resizing images if people post huge ones, and some other stuff which may, or may not be possible that I'll keep mum on until I get it working.
Overall, you won't see a huge difference to the site as a user, but the functionality will be vastly improved to cope with our ever expanding membership!
