With the new version we can allow each user to have their own gallery. Plus, there are quite a few other things that I think could help the community grow. Here is the full list:
Improvements to existing Features
- New blogs skins – some professionally design blog skins to help make your blog stand-out.
- Improved Editor – simple to use WYSIWYG editor.
- Improved blog authoring experience – simplified workflow for creating, editing, and saving posts.
- Improved comment editing/management tools for blogs – designed to help you edit and manage a large number of comments quickly.
- Better SPAM Protection – changes to the built-in spam rules to more effectively deal with spam.
- New reports – new reports for a variety of statistics maintained by the Community Server database.
- Per-post answer status –allows users to track answer status on a per-post level for forum posts.
- Better fixed-width support – design changes to enable better support for fixed width sites.
New Features
- Tags – ability to add free form tags to content and then use tag clouds and other tools to filter content.
- Content Mirroring – ability to configure a blog to be subscribed to one or more external RSS sources bringing that content into the site for visitors and making the content searchable.
- Post Relevance sorting – allows site owners to use new post relevance algorithm (optional) for blog aggregation page. This feature allows popular content to stay “above the fold” longer.
- Invitations – ability to configure site so that only invited users can join the community.
- Badges – members of the site each receive a community badge that can easily be displayed in a variety of locations, such as external blogs.
- Feedburner / external RSS support – easily use tools, such as Feedburner, for sharing your RSS feeds on blogs.
- Runs in Medium Trust – better support for hosting organizations that want to run ASP.NET applications in a reduced trust level.
The bad news is that by upgrading we will lose the chat functionality. The useage of the chat has been very limitted as of late and I feel the benefits outweigh the drawback, but this is a community site, so everyone should get to vote on that.
This poll will only be up for a couple of days, so please vote immediately.
Would you like to upgrade to the new version of the site software?

Chat is gone. This is the new version. As far as AOL chat, I'm not really sure. I don't know anything about AOL. Apparently people don't want to use the chat feature anyway. Not many people used it and no one voted to keep it. .brit

Re: Upgrade to new version?
Me and Adam used the chat. A hand full of other people used it, but not very many. I didn't vote to keep it cause I didn't figure enough people would vote to keep it to even bother with. I like Ken's idea about using another chat room, aren't there some you have to have a password to get in? We could do that and just give the people on this site the password maybe?

Sounds like we have a volunteer to check out the options. Any one second the motion to make gtilley45 the Chat Keeper? Maybe we call him the Chatonator. .brit

Re: Upgrade to new version?
HA! So the chat isn't important to ya'll? Seriously, I don't even know if that's possible. I was just making a suggestion hoping that some of you "computer guys" would know what to do or if it could be done.

I just noticed you are from Ball Ground, GA. My brother lives in Jasper, isn't that like 10 minutes away?
