    The new website is now live.

    Everything has been rebuilt from the ground up, so some things will look and behave differently to the old website. Although the styling has been updated, I've deliberately tried to keep a similar content layout to keep things relatively familiar, at least initially.

    All user accounts and forum content have been transferred across, so you should be able to log in with your existing username and password. If you have any difficulties logging in, you can reset your password by clicking on the "Lost your password?" link on the login screen.

    Member avatars are higher resolution on the new website, so if you have one already set up it may look grainy. You can upload a new picture in your user settings - hover over your username in the top right-hand corner of the screen to see the user drop-down settings menu, and select "Avatar" from the list.

    The old Directory and Features pages have been replaced with the Resources page. There is limited content on this page at the moment, but I'll be adding to it over the coming weeks.

    The new platform also opens up a number of possibilities for improving the website, so I’m hoping to continue developing it in future.

    Please feel free to use the new "Test Messages" forum if you want to try things out.

    I hope you enjoy using the new website. There are bound to be some problems to iron out - please reply to this message if you spot any issues or if you have any feedback. If you can't log in or post, you can email me using the "Contact Us" link at the bottom of every page.

    Thank you kind sir :D

    I'm still ironing out a few glitches with the new design, and there's quite a bit of work left to do to fill the site out with more content, but it's a relief to finally get it up and running.

    Please do let me know if you spot any problems......

    Fair play! The new site will take some getting used to, but it looks the bees knees

    Wow, David - that looks amazing! Sure, it will take a bit of getting used to (especially old fogeys like me who are not as adept at change as some younger Copenistas!), but heck - it's certainly worth it. Clean, fresh, purposeful look. Great work!
