Posted: 2010-02-15, 05:05 New server and domain
Forum and bugtracker have been moved to a new server. Now we'll have more space and possibilities for further site development.
Everything is now hosted under domain vcmi.eu.
Old links will remain functional for some time and redirect to the new domain.
I've updated links in the forum with new address, so internal linkage remains consistent.
If you encounter any problems with forum that might be related to that migration, please report them here.

First, congratulations on the move to the new server. The new address is more elegant, 'international' :p and shorter (easy to remember). It's a sign we are growing to a very serious project, with a dedicated domain and everything. ;)
Now, about the issues with the icons (to be expected in the first days after such a move):

This may be a browser problem but VCMI icon does not have transparency( I have white area instead)
Opera 10.10
I don't have that problem in Chrome (v4.0.288.1), nor the issue with the desktop shortcut reported by Boulie (I have WinXP.SP2).
For me, in the Chronicles layout, only the WinXP icon seems to lack transparency (though I see it with black background i/o white). And that only for the posts before the move to the new server.
If I switch to subSilver however, almost all buttons and icons fail to load correctly:
Another issue is on the Statistics page. The OS & Browser icons section receive doubled icons for the OS/Browsers used on the new server. I don't know if we can merge them with the old ones, or perhaps the old stats should be just deleted in that section. If neither of the two is possible, perhaps we can find newer, more stylised versions of the duped icons, to use for the stats on the new server. And if you'll work on those icons, perhaps you can also add the Safari one. See my post here (the SRWare Icon is not so important, though if not added, the members using Iron should be identified as Chrome users i/o Mozilla).
Tips for testers:
- Check the bugs already reported in the BUGTRACKER, to avoid creating dupes
- Check the ITEM IMPLEMENTATION STATUS lists, to avoid reporting as “bug” a feature not yet ready for testing
- If you feel the devs should prioritize a certain feature implementation, please add it to the Missing features & functionalities thread.
- Enjoy! :)
The use of the EDIT button is strongly encouraged on the forum.
Not sure if these two are related, but since at least a week I get 404 error everytime I try to reach the board or bugtracker from my laptop (tried different networks).

Warmonger, are you sure that you use up-to-date links at your laptop?
Our old server is down due to bandwidth limit (unexpected attack of yahoo crawler bot... that's why we've moved). That's actually an error 509, not 404 but otherwise fits.

FYI - I also never get the 404 error (or any other for the matter), so it must be an issue on your local machine (probably the links as mentioned above)
However I do have a problem with the attachments lately. And I believe it's since the move to the new server I always get this message: "Sorry, but the maximum filesize for all Attachments is reached...". As the message says, it seems to be a problem of the forum in general, unrelated to my profile (there it says I've used only 6% of my attachment volume anyway). Was this perhaps intended, so that we use Mantis as much as possible, or is it just a space issue on the new server?
