This new look has been in the pipeline for a long time (way, too long, should have been done years ago, anyways I digress....). Late or not, here it is.

But it's not just a new look. We have also launched CLUAS social networking - à la MySpace and Facebook - for all CLUAS members. To see it in action you should log in and visit this page to see your own profile page. You can update it yourself (just click "Edit Profile"). I recommend you add in a quick biography, upload a photo and then go and add other users to your profile via the "Add a friend" button on their profile pages.

You can check out the profile page of other users by (for example):
1) clicking their photo on a discussion thread or,
2)  browsing the friends list on any members profile page.


When you are logged in you can now also send private messages directly to other CLUAS members by either: 1) clicking the envelope icon beside a person' photo / image in a discussion thread, or 2) Click on "Send message" on a member's profile page.

How do you post a new topic on the forum??

Dovers, once you've logged in go to whichever forum you want to publish a new topic and look at the top of that forum for a "Post New Topic" button. Click on it and off you go. If you have any problems let me know, either here on this thread or via the "Private Messaging" function (click the envelope icon below my name).

First class upgrade, the site is cooking, looks and feels great.

All the very best

Cheers Peter. There are still a few things to be ironed out, e.g. things get a bit hairy on some sections of the site for those using Internet explorer 6 (about 16% of our visitors, believe it or not). I'm on the case however. And Peter, go off there and upload a nice image / pic to your profile page so that he don't have the default avatar appearing here on the discussion board.
