Site updates
I’d like to announce a few exciting site updates. More amazing changes will be announced in the next few days.
- Speed: The OpenDesigns code is being revamped to preform less database queries. THis process should be finished in the next few days, and will eliminate up to %90 of all database queries
- Forums: The forums are now running on the awesome BBPress. This will improve speed, reliability and integration with WordPress, as well as enhance the overall user experience. You may notice that the forum posts from the last few days are missing. Well, it took that long to do the transfer, and we didn’t want the forum offline for that long.
- Forum Moderators: As much as we love free all the discussions going on around here, let’s admit: it becomes way too ugly way too fast. If you think you have it in you to be an official OD peacemaker, apply now to join the OD 2009 moderator lineup.

Well, I was a moderator, and would still like to be one, so continue to consider myself. Thanks.

Welcome back Joe.
I have been kind of vocal in criticising things around here recently. I hope this now means the site is going to be run better.
Anyway, I wish you every success.

Very nice! I wish to apply as a moderator. I want to be involved with the code of the frontend and backend.

HOW ABOUT DOING SOMETHING. THIS COMMUNITY IS DEAD.

Designs are being approved with some regularity. I’ve cut the queue down a bit.

Wow, didn’t been a while here, and what a change! But I do miss the previous lay-out somewhat
