The basics have been done and, hopefully, are all stable. Please forgive the lack of polish, but it will be smartened up soon! It has taken a long time to get everything up and running, so I ask for your patience while the mods and I finish the job.
As you can see, we are now running on the new 2.1.5 version of IPB. I'm sure many of you will be spending time exploring the little changes!
We have also got:
Flashchat Online List
Some of you have been eagerly awaiting this! Scroll down to the bottom of the main index page, and you shall find a new section displaying who is currently chatting, along with three new links that will display the chatroom in your preferred format.
PHP Spellchecker
When posting or creating a new topic, you can check your spelling! In the main posting screen or when posting a New Topic, you can click the small "ABC" button just above the text area to use the spellchecker. It is also available in Quick Reply mode!
Nicer Spoiler Tag
The 2.1 version of our trusty Spoiler Tag, now with added polish. The old one still works because I have left the script on the server, so no need to worry about stumbling across secrets in plain sight.
Konoha Gallery
The FanArt Gallery is being renamed as the Konoha Gallery, and it has been upgraded to a new version so there will be small changes in its layout and how it works. The artist's forum is now named Artists' Square.
The Fanfiction Library has also been renamed to Konoha Library to make it more fitting, and we have a couple of small plans for it. It has also been recoded to be compatible with the new board, so please let me know if there are any problems!
Now, this is an important part. We have got all the new rules tagged up. They have been split into different topics so it's easier to organise and for you to find specific rules.
Please read all the rules!
We will be strict in enforcing the rules, especially on character bashing. A few people have made a lot of character bashing posts, usually targeting Sasuke and Hinata. We're not happy with that because it creates a bad atmosphere and alienates fans. It also reflects on the Heaven & Earth boards, giving them a bad image.
Action has already been taken, and we are just making everyone aware of our stance so we can cut down on this kind of behaviour. We want to welcome people, not alienate them, and we know this board has a good bunch of people. It would be a shame to let immature/aggressive posts ruin that.
Anyway, I believe that is all the important news at the moment. Keep your eyes open for new features and breaking news - we are not done yet.

The update wasn't really a cosmetic one (even though we are currently working on a new banner )
There's a lot of new little features like: Who's Online FlashChat...a SpellChecker, new Spolier Tags, and newly improved post and reply area...the PM system got revamped...a couple more Smilies :headbash: / ...there's a new Warning Bar at the bottom of your Avatar section (and you all really should read the new rules about that)...also the Gallery and Fanfiction sections also got a couple of new features, plus new names for those sections
Just look around the site a bit more...investigate...don't just look at the main page, and say "meh...I don't see anything new." We all worked really hard to make this site better for you all, so go and enjoy some of the new features!

The new posting look is just fantastic, smiles are all still there, also the PMing system is just crazy with pop-ups! XD And the new FlashChat list of who's online is just splendid!
Awesome job! Everything is just Fantabulous! Yay Smiter!

"Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. Now, you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow, or it can crash. Be water my friend." - Bruce Lee
Whether 1 and 15 or 15 and 1, Superbowl or Toiletbowl...those are my Boys. Ain't no bandwagon here. GO COWBOYS!!!
