We have just finished moving our site to a brand new server. There were a few issues with the old DC, which have made us move to our new home. We are still located in the US, as 50% of our members are from the states. For anyone interested, the specs of the server are as follows:

CPU: 2.8ghz dual core (totalling 5.6Ghz)
RAM : 2 GB
HDD : 2x500GB (One backup drive)

During the coming weeks, you may find some issues with the site, while we tune it to perfection :D If you notice ANYTHING out of the ordinary, please let me know. The members previously having problems with the resource gallery SHOULD now find it is ok. Again, please let me know.

Sorry Bazzah, still getting the following message in the Resource Section with IE7, doesn't matter which pic I click or how many times I try.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Its only a minor problem as I have Firefox installed and that works fine, just got used to using IE7 most of the time and I sometimes forget to switch browsers before I log in.
Other than that the site is great and thanks for all the hard work that you and the mods obviously do.

Still the same for me too, except that I'm still using IE6.
Firefox still works fine.

Congrats on the new server B.

I have let the support team over at Invision know you are still having problems. I'll keep you updated.

You may have noticed a few posts have disappeared. If so, this means you are now successfully being routed to the new server. Also, if you are on the new server, you will notice some recent uploaded images are missing. Do not worry about these, they will be transferred. If however you are still seeing everything as normal, then you are logging on to the old server. Do not worry, as soon as your ISP's have updated their name servers, you will log onto the new server. Again, anything out of the ordinary, please let me know. During the coming weeks, we are going to have to tune the site, so things may not work 100% right away. Thank you for your patience.

I'm guessing this ain't a real problem.. But for some reason I only get empty thumbnails in the gallery - for the newest additions. However, the thumbnails for "latest comments" (mine is apparently in Swedish so I'm just guessing that's what it's called) do appear. Is there an explanation for this?

Some of the images need to be manually moved to the new server. Do not worry. They have not been lost, and will be done very soon.
