Here is the work log for the Apex sites merging the forums together and rearranging some formatting for both sites as well. I will keep you guys up to date here on what is going on. My wife is all setup on World of Warcraft playing with her mom so I have lots of time to get work done on this.
First step is finishing the forum layout recode in order to get back our nice DHTML menus. I am busting that out right now and expect to be done, without much, in a few hours. I have a much better understanding of CSS layouts now. The current layout here was actually my first fully CSS layout. I have learned quite a bit since then.
After I have the new layout ready I will be shutting down the forum here and will then be moving all the attachments from this site to the forumapex.com site where it will then go online. After the ForumApex.com site is working properly (just need to change a few file paths and setting in the vb install and scripts), I will begin to move the gallery to the forumapex.com site as well. My Goal is to get the forums operational first! I will work as fast as possible to minimize down time for you guys... but I want the forums working so you guys still have a place to hang while things are moved around a bit. I really think this is going to be a sweet move and a big thanks to all that spoke up about the merge! Hell, this is even going to save me money on my licenses and will make it much easier since it is only one forum to admin vs 2.
