I am trying to liberate NewOTP™ (or is that MyOTP™?) from the clutches of this nanny-state format.

Larger avatars are now re-allowed, and the delays between posts/searches is now only nominal.

I'll keep working on it.

Still a work in progress, obviously, but things are shaping up nicely.

Can't seem to undo the 5-day grace period, unfortunately, so hang tight and we'll be posting web addresses and images in no time!

The reason the look keeps changing is because I'm trying out different formats to get something that looks good.

I kind of like this "icicle," though we don't seem able to add the OTP header to it. Once more, work in progress.

OK, figured out how to make this forum exclusive without actually locking it. You can reply to these things too.

If anyone can dig up a copy of the OTP rules from the old site, I'll add that in too.

I can only do it with the relatively ugly "subsilver" template, though. I'm still trying to wrap my head around this, especially as I've now accidentally deleted the old template. Laughing

What is the Readers Digest explanation of why the Old OTP went kaput? I have been playing with the different skins and like the classic. But I miss the ability to browse the older threads.

Cali no longer has sufficient time to devote the amount of time it takes to admin this place.

Jyrki and Av, you may want to post Cali's heads up post here, so that I'm not speaking for him or you guys...

It has nothing to do with time -- Cali wasn't exactly doing much admin work on the old site either. Laughing He just doesn't have the space to host it any more, for whatever reason.
