A couple of new things

Hi Everybody,

First, I want to let you know that we closed the poll for the new bell weights for the DF logo and the new logo will be out in the next couple of days.

Second, I wanted to share with you that tomorrow we will be upgrading DF to vBulletin 3.7 (the latest release). There is a great deal of new things in this release and it is the most stable and best supported according to vBulletin.

Below you will find the full details on what is new in 3.7. If you find something that you think would be good for the community and we haven't enabled it, let us know and the Staff will consider it.

We don't expect any major problems (nothing like the login issues we had during the last upgrade) but there could be minor problems which we will resolve.

Please use the contact us form to report any problems.

Enjoy!!! This is what's new in 3.7....
