New Forums
Joyous news for our community, we've got new forums!
The old ones were getting dated so we've switched to different software which is miles better, lots of new toys to play with!
We're starting afresh with these forums, so none of the old posts have been moved over.
All the users who have made a post in the last 6 months, or have over 10 posts in total have been moved over so there is no need to sign up again. If you do not fall under these categories then you must sign up to the new forums to use them.
Everyone is free to sign up and start chatting with the best myspace editing community around. We're hoping to make this community bigger and better than before.
The old forums will stay open so people can search for old posts, but it will be changed to read only. They can be
found here.
Anyone who has signed up within the last few hours to use the forums will have to signup again on the new ones. Also anyone who has made a post in the old forums and is expecting a reply will have to post it again in the new forums. Sorry for the inconvenience!
I'd appreciate it if all the forum users would
read this post as it details more of our plans for the new forums.

As promised, new stuff!
You won't see all the changes with this new update, as most of it is to the backend of the site, making the site faster (hopefully) and making it easier for us to make new stuff. There's quite a large change so i'm expecting some things to not work, please tell us if you see anything!
The changes you
will see is the all new Layouts section. It's now much easier to browse through them all, many more are shown on a page and you can now see all the pages to easily come back to where you left off. You can also link to individual creators and layouts to share them on your profile or show to your friends.
Along with all this is a name change for myProfiles to myLayouts, as it just makes more sense. myLayouts is all new too, hopefully making it easier for you manage and show off your layouts!
Any layouts made public will now be checked by a MyGen moderator to make sure you have uploaded a valid screenshot and put in sensible details. A lot of people have been uploading their background images or photos of themselves, even though it tells you not to multiple times. They won't get away with it anymore, you have been warned!
A lot of old layouts have been removed that no longer worked because of the CSS comment filtering MySpace added ages ago.
The site design has been tweaked a tiny bit too, making it a little cleaner with more space.
That's it for now folks, enjoy the new stuff and please report anything you find broken!
UPDATE: If you've saved any layouts to myLayouts from the profile editor since the update, you'll probably have found they didn't work. It's been fixed now, but you'll have to re-generate your layouts or manually remove the slashes from quotes. Sorry!
