hope everyone likes the look and feel of the new rfu design, still a few minor odds and ends to take care as we go, but it should work without any issues.. that said, here are a few notes:

- if you come across any bugs or anything that strikes you as odd, please let me know, just post it here!

- if you've come across something at another site, a cool feature(s) perhaps, that you think would be great here, or have any suggestions regarding the look and feel of the new design, again please let me know!

- this is going to sound odd, and most likely the only time you will ever hear a website suggest this, but for best results you should use a browser ad-blocker such adblock+ or the like... there are quite a few custom pages built into the design that offer great news feeds, vids, media, and other rams related info culled from around the net..

but rather than link to a lot of this info i instead iframed it in order that it would be automatically updated as the target sites are updates, lots of great advantages to this... problem is, some of the sites i targeted use ads which can show in the iframes if you're not using an ad-blocker...

- be sure to check out the welcome vid, it can be found in the "dashboard", the first item under the "directory" heading...

- also be sure to check out all of the links under the "resources" heading, again accessible via the dashboard!

Great job A-1. It will take a little time getting used to. It seems to eat up a bit more bandwidth or something as it seems slower than the old format.

The only thing I noticed yet are the compressed avatars. Every one got squashed into a square. Many avi's are now out of perspective.

The new website looks awesome. It's very modern.

This is more of a feature request. Now that the forum is phpBB enabled, can this website/forum be added to the tapatalk.com directory?

No rush, I know the site just got upgraded. It would be nice to follow this forum via a mobile app. :D

Thanks in advance.

Great Job! Very professional looking.

I have 2 questions:

1. How do I change the screen color like I did before?
2. Can we have a chat room for the games?

1. at this time there's no option to change screen color, but i can definitely check it out....
2. dashboard > directory - second item on the list, rfu chat... i set it up so there's a general chat room and a game day chat room, maybe we can get some folks to test it out before kickoff... why don't you go ahead and make some posts to it right now, see how you like it....
