You are not allowed to view links. Register or LoginLooks excellent!About the authors: will each author be asigned to a certain department of the site or how do you want this to work?No, each author will be able to post in whatever category they want. So if you have a news article, you can post it, if you feel like writing a blog you can post it, if you have a theory you can post it, etc. etc. etc. @ShyBleuEyes: your password is probably in your spam box or something like that. If you still can't find it let me know so I can change the password for you.

But how cn we get to the forum form there?? Is the new site linked to the forum?
As most of you have seen, I completely changed the website (not the forum, but the main site). The main reason is that the old one was too static and if there were updates, I had to add them myself and I lack time lately. So I installed a Wordpress based website that can be updated by anyone I assign as author. That way the website will become more alive and most importantly: up-to-date. Let me first explain how the new website works.On the homepage you will see a list of posts, the most recent added first. The slideshow shows the news, for now I have posted the two latest TMZ articles. The menu under the logo shows the categories for the articles to be posted. I posted most of what was already on the trial page and the old website, I might add some other things later. The sidebar on the right (if you scroll down a little) shows a login function, the MJ Beatz Radio, navigation to the forums, HoaxPics (new MJDHI image upload function, similar to tinypic) and MJ Beatz Radio. Other links will probably be added later. Then you will see category navigation, the new MJDHI Facebook page and a slideshow of the new gallery.In the footer the link to the trial video archive (also in the menu), the latest tweets and the forum rss feed. So far in short what you will see on the homepage.Because I haven't found a good solution for the forum yet, I decided to keep it like this for now. If I decide to make changes in the future, I will let you know in time but so far it will stay unchanged. That means that if you want to participate on the website itself, you will have to make a new account there. I advise everyone to do that to at least reserve your username so that nobody else can walk away with it. If you have an account on the website itself, you will be able to comment on the articles, blogs and posts, unless you are an author (more later).New is HoaxPic. I installed this page to make sure that images posted on the forum can't be deleted by the ones that originally uploaded them to the net. Plus I am going to disable the attachment function because it slows down the threads, and with this tool it's easy for everyone to post an image. This is the site: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login (see also sidebar navigation menu). You simply save the image you want to post on your desktop, choose the file with the tool, click upload and you will get a few links you can then use. If the image is very big, choose the bbcode (not html!) 'Thumbnail + viewer link', if the picture is small (up to 700 pixels wide), you can use the bbcode 'Show directly this image', or just the link if you still want to use the image button of the forum. This way all the pictures will be stored here on the server and we will be sure they will not vanish just like that.Another new feature is the Gallery (top menu above the logo). I made a few galleries already and uploaded some pictures, but future authors will be able to add more pictures to the existing galleries, or make new galleries. On the bottom you will see the new chat (if you are logged in), as a toolbar similar to Facebook chat. You can have private chats, talk in the general chat that all logged-in users can access, or you can make a new room and invite users. Just check it out for yourself, it's pretty easy to figure out.But as I said: I need authors, that is the reason I made this website. Authors will be able to:Post newsPost articles that fall under any of the categoriesPost own blogs under the category blogs->member blogsPost videosPost pictures In other words: an author will help keep the site up-to-date and will be able to post not only on the forum, but also on the site itself. If you like to become an author, please let me know.I hope everyone will enjoy the new site. Suggestions and ideas always welcome!Souza
