Dang, you don't like that one??? :shock:
So that means that I have to cancel the new HIGHLY fluorescent red/green/blue theme that I've been working on every day the last few months?? :lol:
(Yeah, I know it sucked... but I'm a coder and not a web designer.. :cool: )

Thanks for that, but this forums wouldn't have been anything at all without our great members (well, at least most of them.. ;)) and the GREAT help I've got from the best forum staff you can find on the Interwebs!!
So congratulations and thanks a lot to all of you! :cheers:
 
Happy birthday Milforum!
I think I've been here for about 4 years now. I'm not entirely sure.
This is a fun place to share ideas etc.
I think we've had some good mods as well who have worked hard to keep the forus balanced.
Thanks redleg for all the hard work. Hopefully this forum will be around for a long time.
