Just received this notice from ProBoards:
ProBoards v5 is coming soon!
We're excited to let you know that on April 29th we will begin to upgrade all forums to ProBoards Version 5. This free upgrade to this forum contains literally hundreds of new forum features and improved functionality. Below are just a few of the great things you can expect with this free upgrade!
The "Colors & Theme Creator" section of the Admin Panel makes it extremely simple for you to customize the look of your forum.
Host all your forum's images directly on ProBoards! No more relying on third party image hosts!
A Shoutbox integrated directly into your forum!
Notifications to help you stay on top of the latest updates to threads you've participated in and more.
Send a personal message to multiple people in the same conversation, or even entire groups!
Create a unique, custom avatar inside of your forum with the new Avatar Maker.
Per-user activity feeds with the ability to follow other members.
Better moderator tools that make moderating your forum a breeze.
The ability to "Like" posts!
A new Visual Editor for creating posts. See exactly what your post will look like while you make it!
Upgraded attachments system that allows you to easily attach even more files to your forum posts!
Lightning fast forum navigation on every page with our new drop-down navigation tree and improved hotkey support.
At the top of each page you can see if any of the topics you've participated in have been recently updated.
Direct access to the forum's HTML and CSS for those hard-to-reach tweaks.
tagging to bring a member's attention to a post.
... and so much more.
More updates on the way
We will be sending another update in the coming weeks with useful information prior to the ProBoards v5 upgrade. Stay tuned!
Hopefully, this will be a smooth change over and you will only notice the new looks, but since we are not exactly sure how this will all be integrated, if anyone has any problems logging in once this transition starts, just send Denny or myself an email and we'll try to get things figured out for you.
