that's amazing! I was a noob in Nov of 04, and the board looked better/newer than that IIRC.  Lots more traffic as well, though WT was Tha Man back then!

The green forum was the very original software I started this place with, YaBB, which stands for "Yet Another Bulletin Board." You can see I took that screen capture because it was on a recording setting day. The date is in there, 4/17/2003 :thumbs:

It's amazing on how many people have come and made their mark on the site and now it's where are they?  I know White Trash was the man, but the site got to soft for him.  And he terrorized a few local sites, and now he's too busy to even go wheeling, due to him long hauling!

Yeah red, I remember the day you signed up.. It was January 9, 2005, a Sunday, some time in the early afternoon. I remember because I was online working on a new script at precisely 2:07:52 when I noticed a new member by the name of red. That was a good day
