Hi guys,

      As you guys have been aware the EPICentre has been hacked, broken and generally left milling in a horrible state of neglect whilst my concentration has been focused on my three jobs. In the background Primarch has been beating with a very heavy object (Legion4's Tome of Tactical Goodness - The abreviated edition) to get the new site up and running. Things came to a head a few months ago when the site fell over. I managed to get a temp fix up and running back then using the gaffer tape methodology.

      Anyway - the EPICentre has been completely torn down and rebuilt from the ground up and is now ready for use, it is completely home made so there are no exploits or published security holes for it on the web, so it should be impervious to 99% of the hackers out there.

      Without further ado, I present The EPICentre !

Thanks for the hard work. Just one comment: it's kind of hard to read the dark blue letters on a black background. Any chance of changing colors?

I took a peek and the banner issue happens when the banner graphic is wider than the 55% of the rendering window allocated to the #content style.

You might want to use fixed width for that section or calculate the widths based on the initial page render.

Another issue I found is that when I hover over links other than the menu links, the link text disappears (everything goes black.)

Hi!

Thanks for all the work Tom!

Nice touch using the original netepic banner, to think that one is almost a decade old!!
