I can help and advise you with some things but not a lot as I do not really have much spare time.

If you head to the Fansite tips Thread at the top of this forum board you can find some good tips there and post your questions there.
There is also my Forum tips Thread where you can post your questions.

Fangree Productions Statement

Quote:
The Unofficial Sims 3 UK Site is getting ready for the upgrade to PHP-Fusion V7 and the site is closed for now until the release of PHP-Fusion V7 which should be in the next week or so.

The reason we have closed the site before the up grade was that we lost a lot of data when we were testing V7 stupidly on thesims3uk.co.uk server which we shouldn't of done, but hey we learn from our mistakes, so all our old members, forums posts and other content is gone I am afraid.

We have installed PHP-Fusion V7 BETA on our test site so we can work on the new theme and various other features.
We are working on a whole new concept for the site and hope to re launch The Unofficial Sims 3 UK Site some time at the end of June.

We would like to apologize to all our old members of The Unofficial Sims 3 UK Site for losing there accounts and other content and we hope you will re join us when the site is back up and running.

The Unofficial Sims 3 UK Site is open again!

First off we would like to apologize for the site being off-line for so long, the reason this happened was we were upgrading the forums which then basically destroyed the forum tables, we then lost the site backup which made me angry so I decided to close the site until the release of PHP-Fusion V7.

However we received a lot of emails from members and visitors wondering where the site had gone and we feel the site should not be off line to long, so i decided to bring it back and worry about upgrading later.
Lucky for us after a few days of searching I found a recent site back up and I restored it and now the site is back to it's normal functioning state.

Once again sorry for the interruptions.

Important Announcement!


We are delighted to announce that The Unofficial Sims 3 UK Site is now part of the Fangree Productions main domain fangree.co.uk where all our sites will be.

You can now find the Unofficial Sims 3 UK Site at...

http://www.thesims3.fangree.co.uk

You may have already noticed that http://www.thesims3uk.co.uk still forwards to The Unofficial Sims 3 UK Site, so no one will get lost and if you still want to use thesims3uk.co.uk to visit the site you can, however the sites real address will be thesims3.fangree.co.uk and this is the address you will see a lot of from now on.


If you have any questions or comments regarding the new Site Address post below.

Regards
Fangree_Craig
Fangree Productions Founder

Uh? Really?

... how long did you spend thinking about that one? It seems strange to use a subdomain after so long using a dedicated domain name.

Any link you've posted anywhere using the thesims3uk.co.uk domain name is now just going to redirect to the news page at the new subdomain.

Seems a bit backwards, that does.
