    Hey everyone. And yeah.. such a pitty that Lea did go down once again.
    The plan about reconstructing lea and resurecting it again is for it to be maintaned by people who actually care about the site, unlike what happened with Mufasa in the end or what is happening now with Yuvraj. The idea is to have shared access to the hosting website by multiple people so if one person is not around to make the payment in time, someone else may pick up.
    So Far there is a few people who are willing to put money towards it and recreating it again. Vbulletin is what makes it expensive as it's $195. Thought it's only one time thing and we wouldn't have to upgrade it as it already have too many features for us anyways. Getting a web address cost around 10 dollars a year and forum server is around $35 a year so that is totally affordable.
    What comes to reconstructing lea... yeah I have spent about 30h reconstructing it as I'm an absloute noob with php and vbulletin. But I'm starting to get a hang of it. The picture on Lea website on facebook is from last evening and I have done quite a bit of progress sense then, thought I still have quite a few mistakes to fix on it,
    The thing that I have a biggest problem is that I have not much to go by. I have the colors from all 3 designs on old lea but I'm missing pretty much all the buttons like post reply and such. So if any one has used Internet explorer on browsing lea, it would help if you can pull something off, or if you have screen shots or anything from Lea that might help some as well.

    New board and everything and already breaking rules... DOUBLE POST!
    Anyways as this forum only allows you edit your post for 10 minutes or delete one in that matter. I pretty much have to double post. Here is a picture of what I have done so far with Lea. That is only the main page. Nothing more. I have worked on other areas of the board as well. http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v4...04-15-2011.jpg
    What comes to night sky blue and jungle green. Those will come later. once I get all the color sceme right. It will be easy to edit everything. But as now I just try to concentrate on getting the stuff together. And as the orginal board offers me the most to go by, I desided to use that one.

    If my recollection is correct, wasn't there an issue once upon a time where the vBulletin was no longer compatible with the server and thus we were forced to upgrade to get rid of the .php errors....and thus spend more money?
    I could be wrong though...or maybe I'm confusing it with another board, but I know that's happened at least once to vBulletins I've frequented.
    At any rate, it's lookin' good! Thanks for all the work you're doing.

    Just a little info, Proboards does allow custom smilies, just not as many as LH had. (I work with a lot of Proboards) InvisionFree/ZetaBoards does as well. However, I don't mind what forum software we use, I'll sign up anywhere.

    There are also many "hacks" available on Proboards (and probably Invision) that allow for things such as more smilies than normal, changing avatar sizes, etc - my Proboard has 60+ smilies...the only difference is that you actually have to click on one to add them - they aren't tied to text smilies.

    Yeah, what happened with first Lea was because of upgrading the Vbulletin, but the problem occured as Mufasa upgraded Vbulletin before getting a back up from Lea. The correct way is to, first back up the forum, then upgrade and then when you install the database, it will automaticly repair the database up to date.
    In our case thought, we wouldn't be upgrading the Vbulletin. If Yuvraj does sell the board for us, I think the Vbulletin that is installed comes with it and if we have to get a new board. We wouldn't update Vbulletin as most things that are added to Vbulletin sense first lea which was Vbulletn 2 hasn't done us any good really. Lea is pretty simplified forum.

    I'll do anything in my power to help your site, STM. Money is not something I can help with, though, or we wouldn't be on this free page right now.

    I know nothing of PHP, sounds like some entropic drug to me. lol

    Wow, that's looking great so far! It's good to see the hard work all paying off. Thanks again for this. ^^

    As for PHP, I've only ever used HTML, and even now I don't remember much of it. PHP was never my forte... xD

    Hehe, Feral. It's not my site. Lea belongs to everyone. Alone I don't think I could make it work really. Especially sense I don't work. And don't worry about the money part. It's not requred by any means.
    Yuvraj is given till next saturday ( not tomorrow ) and after we will most likely be doing something about it if he doesn't get back to us. But in all and all I do think it is best for the board if it's owned by people who actually care. Far too long it's been around merly.

    I'm with most people, I don't mind if Lea changes over to a different format, it's the people that make it. So we're all behind you STM, any help you need that I can give, you can have.
    Speaking of which, I needed help logging in today, was trying over and over again wondering how on earth my password couldn't be right... but I was only typing in my username, not my e-mail to sign in. Yeah... I can read

    It's good to see that even if it isn't the normal Lea that we're all sort of used to, that we're still about. I agree with Azerane, I couldn't much care less about what sort of format we're going to be under, as long as we have the people still that's surely all that matters
