The forum has been upgraded successfully. Although we needed to pay $149.95 for the full Pro version of this software, but Henry and I decided it was worth it. The forum will be under construction for the next couple of days for cosmetic changes, but posting has been enabled.

There are a couple of changes I'd like to point out:

1.) We now require registration, I know it's a feature that no one looks forward to, but hopefully by doing it this way, the administrator can monitor the spammers and prevent them from entering the forum

2.) The forum URL has permanently changed, please bookmark/favorite this page on your browser:
http://www.kyphoto.com/cgi-bin/forum/discus.cgi

3.) No one is able to post in the archived messages, feel free to start another topic

4.) Added "Collector's Lounge" topic for collector's to share their hobby

5.) You may now upload attachments that are up to 100KB in size, I hope it's a reasonable file size to upload your photos

TO-DO LIST

1.) The "Start New Thread" button is still in the WAY bottom of the page, I will try to move it to the top of the page

2.) Add navigation bar on top of forum

Any suggestions are welcomed. E-mail me if you experience any problems or have any questions.
