IMPORTANT NEWS!

[Contra Fates]

Yes, it is so important that I've even hit caps lock for this thread title! Truth be told, the time has finally come where RSF can no longer be just the way it is. It's time for a whole new skin, new colors, new titles, new focus, new features, etc. As such, it's announcement time!

1.) MARCH 11TH. REMEMBER IT!

March 11 is the day that all of the changes are going to take place. And what exactly will RSF be looking like? Well, something like this:

That is going to be the first new skin for RSF, complete with some rotating banners from our very own Mellusia! There's also a hint at what our new focus is, but it won't be any fun to just tell you. I have also gotten a second skin for us to use, but I want to make sure the transition to the new software and the new skin goes smoothly before I add the second one. As many of you requested in a previous poll, a dark skin was paramount, so, this skin will be made dark! But, being that this is RSF, there's going to be plenty of color splashed in there to liven things up.

So, as I said, March 11th is the day that the transition is going to happen. I have no set time, but if you check RSF on the 11th, or close to it [blasted time zones!], then you'll know why things may be down. If all goes well, the transition should be done within the day, and we'll be back online with a brand new skin and a host of new features to play with!

2.) RSF Goes .Com, Baby!

In order to lessen any confusion regarding the domain name, I've purchased risingstarforums.com, and set it to redirect to the main site.

Check out the new COM!


3.) DeviantArt Group, Join It!

I mentioned creating one of these earlier, and I've already gone and invited those of you whose deviantart accounts I could easily find on RSF. So, that being said, if you haven't joined the group yet and you have a DA, go click the icon and join it! I've already started posting up the winning SOTW entries, and I'm going to be posting up the RPC winners soon as well. Eventually the group will house every single entry that was made into the contests, so people on deviantart can enjoy it as well, and offer up some comments and praise for our talented RSFers!

Those are the updates for now, I hope you guys like the new skin, or at least what you've seen of it so far!

OMGWGAJMJcopter!!!!!! That is sooo sexy!!! I cannot wait for March 11,2010!!! I need to start posting my stuff on Deviant Art.

[SurrealSanity]

I love it.
*Evidence says RSF owns.


I can't wait to see all of the new toys you've got chocked into the new version of RSF. I know that you have worked your ASS off on it, Kendra, and I'm damn sure that it will be well worth it. I'm sure I express the over-all sentiments of the rest of the forum - but I don't want you to quote me on it, as I'm not quite at the ESP over long distances level, just yet - But, as a member of this community, I can definitely appreciate the time, money, and effort you put into this forum.

So thanks! And thanks for allowing me to be a part of it.

(And I'm going to miss the old address. I was always more of a 'net' sort of person.)

[Jigoku Shōjo]

Oh. I absolutely love the new skin!

[BlackJack]

The new skin looks snazzy. And the banner featuring large breasts intrigues me.

Also, the .com acquisition is prodigious.

You can still use risingstarforums.net, since they both go to the exact same place.

I'm really looking forward to the new skin. It's made of awesomesauce. Is all of this because the forum is almost one year old now?

I love it.

Aw, thank you very much for the kind words, hun. <3 I'm going to keep doing what I can to get RSF ready for the makeover and upgrade, and I'm definitely going to do my best to give you guys plenty of new toys.

Also, you can still use the .net domain, I just bought .com for the chances that people might forget the domain name. xD It's a safe bet.

Oh. I absolutely love the new skin!

Yay, I'm glad to hear it, Alexis! =)

Hahaha. When Mellusia first showed me that banner, my first thought was: "...That's sexy." xD

I'm happy you like it! And, actually...we were planning on making changes to a new skin a LONG time ago, but we kept having to stall it because of VB4, because it was hailed as this magical, be-all-end-all software upgrade. And, VB4 wouldn't let me use the current skin I have, so I didn't see the point in having a new skin for the current version, if I had to just throw it away whenever VB4 came out. But, VB4 is out, and there's been a few patch versions to help fix a lot of the bugs, as well as new modifications to give us the features we need. =)

So, it's time to rock n' roll!

Also I tried joining the DA group but it wouldn't let me. ;~;

[xLorrainex]

OMG Kendra that looks so snazzy!

[Mellusia]

Yes, everybody loves large tits *rolls eyes* xD

@Kristoph: What's your DA account?

[Doaj]

You were right. The skin does look waaay better with the colors changed. When you first showed me the generic colors on that skin, all I could think was, "I really hope she finds a different one..." You didn't, but this totally flies. On wonderful job, Mellusia, on the banner. Can't wait to see the others.

[BlackJack]

Yes, everybody loves large tits *rolls eyes* xD

Ironic coming from the most "endowed" attorney in history.

[Inu]

@Kristoph: What's your DA account?

Hobohodo.

[BirriaDS]

Yes, everybody loves large tits *rolls eyes* xD

THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT.

The new skin looks great. It remains a dark skin but it's filled with every colour. I LOVE IT!
