It's expected that the conversions will begin in a week or so, so that could mean the KWC will be switching soon. If you have any questions, feel free to post in the subforum. If you'd like to do some investigating yourself, you can go to the ZetaBoards support board. Feel free to test out all the features in General Discussion

What features we know of so far: * Skin Changer - allows multiple skins (the skin chooser is found at the bottom of the board, and there are currently 3 options I have set for you to test out), and I can set a specific skin for a specific forum (this can be used to have multiple banners at the top of the page) * Better Security - I don't know how many of you are aware, but I switched over to Admin validation a while ago (every account registered has to be approved by me or AC Mathur) because we get many spam bots registering each day (today, for example, we had 12). This makes it complicated for people who do want to register, and some people give up trying to register because it's not a fast process. What this will mean for me is less time googling email addresses, and for you it likely means a larger, more active community. * IP Address Block Fixes - Again, this will help with making the community larger. Some people are blocked from accessing any boards on InvisionFree because their IP Address was blocked by IF. They may not have done anything wrong, but now can't join our board. With ZB, these people are able to attempt to register. This will namely make a difference for AOL users. * Sub-Sub Forums available - I'm not quite sure if we're really going to utilize this (at this point in time anyways), but it's a nice option that can be valuable should the board expand further. * Avatar Gallery - I can upload avatars in a gallery for everyone to choose from. * New BBCode - It's more logical (i.e. "big" and "small" rather than having to guess size numbers) and more useful! Check out this spoiler tag: Spoiler: click to toggle * Shrink Forums - Click the minus symbol at the end of the maintitle on a category, and the forums under that category will collapse, and it will expand again when you hit the plus. * Expand Posting Box - While posting, beneath the text box and to the very far right, you will see a plus and minus. By hitting plus, you can expand the box, and by hitting the minus, you can shrink the box. Edited by Katie, Jan 3 2008, 07:58 PM.
