Welcome back to the Amiga.org forums!
« on: August 28, 2018, 07:11:34 PM »
Thank you all for your patience during the forum migration.  Regretably, it took longer than anticipated over the last two months due to workload associated with migrating other A-EON and Amiga Kit websites.  The Amiga.org Staff thank you for your patience and welcome you back to the site.

I would like to thank Christopher for his hard work on this forum and others for beta testing and providing feedback.

We are pleased that these important forums have now been migrated to a faster server coupled with modern stable forum software.  This is not the end of the work:  there will be more changes over the coming months, slowly enabling new features.

We hope you like the modern forum layout.  Please continue to provide us with feedback so we can shape the forums in the direction that the community who frequent these forums can get the maximum benefit out of them.

@amigakit

glad to see we're back up and open to everyone again! out of curiosity -- did anyone backup the image database before doing the transition? we had a pile of good images in the gallery, and if they still exist somewhere, i'd like to get them posted again.

Yes, the images are embedded into the old database.  We will extract them and integrate them with the new forum software in due course.

Congrats on getting the forums back up and running! 

Are their plans to restore the news portion?

Cheers,
