Today we introduce the new SP-FORUMS.

Accounts & Passwords
Because we are using a new system you will have to reset your password before you can log in. These are the required steps:

1. Visit the send password page and fill in your (old) username and email adress. If you can't remember them, please contact us (marc AT sp-forums DOT com)
2. You should receive an email with your new password and a link to activate it. Copy and paste the link into your browser's adress bar and hit enter. Your new password is now active.
3. You can now log in with your new password and change it if you want using the profile page.
4. Start posting :)

If you encounter any problems or have a question, don't hesitate to contact us (marc AT sp-forums DOT com).

New Features & Changes
We've moved to a new webserver, which is basically a physical location of the website. And we're using a new forum system called phpBB which you may have used at other sites already. These changes bring the following new features:
    * No more strange errors and temporarily activity of the forums
    * The website should be faster (mostly for the US visitors)
    * Support for Private Messaging!
    * A new design
    * Couple of other things which you'll find when using the forums

The Future
We're working on a couple of things including mp3 upload functionality so you can easily attach mp3s to your posts. More on these features in the near future.

Advertisements
As you may know if you run a website yourself, it costs money. We don't like the idea of asking for donations so instead we'll be implementing some relevant advertisements, not a lot.. just a few to cover the costs. Also, if you're out to buy new equipment take a look at ZZOUNDS. They have some pretty good deals and if you buy there using this link SP-FORUMS will get a small percentage of their sales.

Transition Problems
This transition may come with some problems. If you find any, please let us know (marc AT sp-forums DOT com) and we will look into it.
Also, the url in your browser's adress bar may look a bit weird.. this is just temporarily till your Internet Service Provider has updated our records.

Thanks
And last but not least, we would like to thank all the members (that includes you!) for the suggestion, feedback and continuous support even during times the forums seemed to be down every couple of days.
