With Halloween right around the corner, tomorrow in fact… Id like to wish everyone a happy and safe Halloween! For those that are interested, well be hosting a Halloween Costume Showoff. For those that wish to participate it will be hosted in the general forum at www.jpdatabase.com. All you need to do is post a picture of yourself (with or without friends, it doesn’t matter, but the more the better!) in your costume(s) with a little description of what you’re supposed to be (even if its obvious). Members who participate might find they are in for a trick or a treat. No one will ever know. Muhaha (that is supposed to be an evil laugh. Corny. I know. I bet I sound like Doctor Evil when I do that). I hope you all join the discussion even if you do not celebrate Halloween.

On the more serious side of things, the host responsible for hosting the Jurassic Park db gave us a treat this past weekend. Since our server is one of the oldest hosted by them we received a brand-new server with various upgrades! Complete with more storage and bandwidth. This means the Jurassic Park db can host more Jurassic-type stuff, all for your internet browsing pleasure. In the end we shall spare no expense.

I’d also like to announce that once all the software for the new server has been loaded we will be upgrading the forum to one of the latest versions of Invision Board.

We’re currently finalizing the new layout. Due to technical reasons the old layout cannot be used without serious rewriting of the source code. There is no set date for the release of the new forum because were all currently preoccupied with our undergraduate and graduate studies in various Universities. That pretty much is the reason for the lack of updates around here. Not to mention Jurassic Park IV news has been really slow over the last few months.
