Welcome to the new Tech in Hiding

Every year, or sometimes several times a year, I try to update the site to make it easier to navigate and to consolidate on unused sections. Today, the 2009 version of this is nearing completion. Here are the highlights of the new update:

• More modern theme. The old theme worked fine functionally, but it was a bit dated stylewise. It didn’t showcase the site enough, so it’s been updated to a fantastic design by Nick over at ElegantThemes.
• Removal of Games subblog. There wasn’t nearly enough posts on the site to warrant a special section. Don’t worry, there will be just as many posts about video games. They will be available at http://www.techinhiding.com/category/games .
• Better integration between the website and forums. I’ve moved off SMF onto the more Wordpress-friendly Simple:Press. It takes the theme exactly and just moves everything into a cleaner operation.
• Archiving of member blogs. The latest blog post from member blogs was back in early June. They’ve all been moved to http://archives.techinhiding.com/ with proper redirects on the backend, so new visitors won’t even notice a thing. This is almost finished at this moment.
• True multi-browser support. The other version looked pathetic in Opera, and that issue seems to have been resolved.

Hopefully, everything is up and working at this time. If you can’t get to a page or other related problems, please leave a message below or in our forums. Thanks, and I hope you enjoy the new look.
