This one is bound to go more smoothly than the last, but let it be known that we will be taking GRM and CMS sites down for a bit of maintenance this evening. We'll start at 6:00 EST and should be done shortly after.

This time is not going to be like last time; there are no major changes or anything but we do need to poke around under the hood for a bit.

As always, thanks for your patience!

I was going to say, is this related to the sudden vanishment of CSS?

Well I just got hit with major changes. I get an old school html type site when I log in. Very old school looking.

It looks sort of like the mobile version of the site.

I feel like I'm in back to the future or something. I didn't even have the internet in 1997!

It really is. Can one little CSS file really kill performance that much? Damn.

That was just the warmup so we could implement the badass new ad management system. Check the home page to see the result. (and click the Champion ad so a brother can send his kids to college, eh?)

Looks broke. I see no ads and the words are bleeding out everywhere.

I anxiously await the results of the 2 hour downtime!

only thing that seems to be missing is the ability to post images

I seem to be able to copy and paste addresses but not the image itself.... ( I could before)

in fact when I click on edit then copy then try to paste .... paste isn't available ( shadow print rather than bold print) I can right click and paste.. but that only gets the address

the flashing curser goes away when I click on the image icon.....

Looks like all the posting links that used to pop up a little dialog aren't working here (Win7/FF8).
