But where is the youtube function?  That thing workled great?  

Ron has set the forum to use a different theme than the one we had before, which is why the color and layout has changed. The current theme hasn't had it's code tweaked to make YouTube embedding possible, so unless he changes back to the old theme or changes the template files, you can't embed YouTube clips like before.




Same symptoms as when you see a Dorian video.

Wrong, nowhere did I mention a flaccid penis ::) ;D

Jeez, Getbig is bringing back memories of the old days in the 80's with the internet and the 9600 modems.  Now you young guys can see what it was like back then all the time.  I actually took a shit while my last post was getting posted.

Ron should charge us 5 bucks a month or whatever the price may be(Kiwi, you made a few hundred million on your board, maybe you could suggest a price?) and get a decent board.

WTF happened to getbig?

  Getbig was infected with multiple Trojans from the phishing website southernsoulandblues and it destroyed both operative functions as well as corrupting all archived data. It was a massive attack.

Was Getbig sabotaged by a rival board, Ron?  Vince Basile seems to have a theory but he hasn't really layed out the specifics yet.

No - a ton of sites were attacked.

It didn't destroy anything at all.  It wasnt even on the boards, nor in the folders, which once I realized that, made it a lot easier to figure out.

However, I needed to upgrade various other aspects that you dont see, and just have not finished it all (someone is helping out).    The original board had old code in it, and wanted to clean it up. 

I will have my original colors back, as well as this one too, including Youtube back. 

But between going to Joe Weider's house for behind the scenes pics yesterday, LOST final, Apprentice final, and family, will code more soon.

You're right, my bad. I thought Ron did a clean install and restored the database.
