ApolloImperium Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 Forum Upgrade Completed As you may have noticed, DemonGoddess completed the forum upgrade last week and we now can say that we are up-to-date on the forum end. Due to the changes in the scripting, you may also have noticed that the old familiar look is no longer available, but good news abounds because this means that you can control the look. If you scroll down to the very bottom of the page, you can see that there are a variety of different skins to choose from, so feel free to play around and find one that you like! Upcoming Contest Since we have secured the AFF Store on CafePress, we are going to start to make use of it again! To do so though, we will be calling on you our loyal readers to help. Put on your thinking caps and your eye out for details about an upcoming original art contest to help revive the store! Funding Status Information to exact status is always found on the donations page. Currently, the site has $156.35 stored in PayPal. October's hosting costs have been paid and with expected advertising revenue we are well covered for November! We do always appreciate donations though! Please see the donation page for further information. AFF Store and admin@ email address The store will be coming back, new and improved, I promise. However, like I said above, it's going to take a bit of work and some help! As for the admin email address? Well, I'm still slogging through bit by bit. If at all possible, please still refrain from sending new mail to it. I would be most grateful! Twitter coming to AFF We have finally found a way that as Author's you can notify your readers about new stories or updates! In your author's panel we will be adding in a field for your Twitter information. If you so desire, you can create a Twitter feed that your readers can then follow to stay up to date on all your fiction happenings! AFF will also be joining Twitter once this goes live that way you can follow us and we will have yet another way to keep you informed on all the latest happenings! Happy reading! Apollo
Animedevildog Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 I have noticed that the Games and Attack Shop are no longer there. Are there plans for their eventual return?
ApolloImperium Posted October 4, 2010 Author Report Posted October 4, 2010 I have noticed that the Games and Attack Shop are no longer there. Are there plans for their eventual return? These programs were written for the old coding and with the upgrades we completed don't work right now. DG is exploring the add on's for the new coding to see what extra's we'll be able to add on. Hopefully we will have new stuff soon!
DemonGoddess Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 What I have to do, is see if they've updated the arcade and attack shop yet. Just like the forum was, those subprograms ALSO have to be rewritten from the ground up to work with the forum software.
JayDee Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 I don't think I have the fans/enough updates to use it myself, but that Twitter idea is a bloody brilliant solution for the 'updates' problem. Give a big hand to whoever thought that one up!
Animedevildog Posted October 4, 2010 Report Posted October 4, 2010 Apollo, DG, thank you for letting me know the current situation with those two apps.

Give a big hand to whoever thought that one up! Apollo thought it up, now I gotta implement it...
ApolloImperium Posted October 5, 2010 Author Report Posted October 5, 2010 Apollo thought it up, now I gotta implement it... *blinks and adopts innocent eyes* You could always teach me to code and then I could do it on my own.... *grins* But since I think most of our members prefer the site in working order, perhaps you shouldn't....
DemonGoddess Posted October 5, 2010 Report Posted October 5, 2010 Update on forum stuff - The attack shop is still under development for IPB 3.x. The casino is not compatible to 3.x and will be undergoing rewrite shortly. The same applies to the arcade we had, however, I do believe I've found an acceptable sub for the arcade.
