Default Forum Skin

[Sparky]

I'm afraid I have to buckle down on bandwidth usage on the forum, before I go bankrupt. It seems this forum has become popular enough that the thousands of hits (guests as well as members - mostly guests) on the main page alone, including each little graphic that makes up the default skin, "Fancy Blue", was adding up to an obscene amount of bandwidth each day. Therefore I have reverted the default forum skin to the plainish grey default skin that came with vBulletin. I slapped a little Never Forgotten logo on it but that's all I've done so far.

Guests, I will try to spice this skin up with Foster's graphics as I get the time, but I'm afraid you won't be enjoying the more graphics-intensive skins anymore. I am really trying to keep this forum free, and this is one step towards that.

Members, to use one of the other skins, go to the bottom left of any forum page and select one from the dropdown menu there.

We'll see how much this helps. Give me a week or two to really tell the difference. We had a spike in guest activity recently, probably for GWH, and that may or may not go back down.
