Default Please pardon the dust as we change up the site...

Folks,

I'm currently in the process of making some significant changes to the site to accomodate some new.. ahem... things.. Since I'm a one man shop, and you are all effectively my quality assurance department, please be sure to post any errors, or strangeness in this forum.

Currently, the following areas of the site are being affected:

- Swapshop - the heli section has been taken offline through the weekend
- Some members post counts decreased due to a nuclear implosion yesterday afternoon. I am currently working a solution to this problem. No posts were lost anywhere on the site, just the computation of posts between the forums and the photo/video galleries. Should have this resolved soon.

That's the big one for now, I'll report more as stuff arises. Thanks for your patience.

MD

Thanks for the explanation, however, ending up inverted too low is Boulder specialty as was proved at the Huckfest and I would not dare go there.
