I've changed the name in the header - the admins are talking about changing the address at some point but it will all be announced.
We are going to run a competition for artwork / favicons / branding... but for now there will be a few changes just to point the way.
We intend to run anything major past everyone before making it happen.
This is our forum for all of us

As a holding position ahead of agreed artwork I have set a blue palette on the forum. The header is TARDIS blue based on: - TARDIS blue is officially Pantone 2955 C according to several sources quoting the BBC
- Pantone 2955C is rgb (0x003865)
- I have picked the web safe alternative (0x003366)
Sources:
Do shout if I've got this wrong!

I'm just curious where Pantone 2955C said to be the Tardis colour comes from, perhaps it's what Worldwide say Tardis merchandise should be coloured? I don't know, but the Tardis itself has varied in colour quite a bit.

I kind of like the idea of the url still being notthebigfinishforum even if the name is The Divergent Universe. Is that too confusing?

Brilliant name for the forum, makes perfect sense, liking the blue too.

Liking the name, liking the colour (and the attention to detail in choosing it!) and I think a consistent url (thedivergentuniverse.com would be ideal) will make finding us easier for those who haven't yet.

Don't let Tony fool you, he's done a heck of a lot of work in terms of getting the forum organized. Although there has been a lot of discussion and checking with each other along the way in the admin group.

Just want to add, so glad people found their way here, and hoping more of the regulars from the old forum will figure out how to find us. We've been trying to spread the word.

I'd like to add my voice to the chorus of thanks to all of the admins for getting this place up and running. It's a worthy replacement for the BF Forums and I'm glad to see people taking to it.

I'm not likely to be a massively active member of this forum, but I certainly agree with the sentiments above, a massive thanks and congratulations to the mods and admins who have got this wonderful site up and running so smoothly in such a short time, and I hope it continues to thrive as a fun, popular place to talk about Big Finish's wonderful work.
