Welcome back!

As you can see, there's been some changes around here. Hopefully y'all like what you see.

Known issues / stuff that's getting fixed (PAY ATTENTION TO THIS POST AS IT WILL BE UPDATED):

Email notifications- this is an issue with google not properly doing the mail because we've moved servers. We have request updates pending and they should take effect shortly many domains fixed. Still working on others. Have to reenable DKIM / DMARC. Yahoo.com / GMX.de addresses having faults

Possible issue with 2 factor authorization being enabled on accounts that did not ask for it.

Search engine is rebuilding. Please be patient
- "Post areas" section of member profiles showing where you are most active is a function of the search engine. It will be returning

Forum categories missing from top navigation bar, they will be readded ASAP

Issues with the new image uploader. Will be investigating this when possible

Banner ads are temporarily disabled as I track down other issues. They will be fixed.

Usability requests to be done when I have time:
- Page navigation showing up at top of threads when in mobile done
- Change font color for last page number in Grey theme
- Change font color for feedback in Grey theme

More to come

Also wanted to come in and say thanks for all the work you do to keep the site up Spark. I imagine besides the front-facing stuff there's a lot you do in the background we don't know about.
 
My little lightning bolt icon at the top does not appear to be working as it does not smite anything when I click on it. Please let me know when I may begin smiting again.
 
Probably so obvious it should go without saying and that is the feedback, unless I'm overlooking it someplace within our new profile.
Thx!
 
Thanks for the hard work you've been putting in, Spark. We all appreciate it.
