We threw caution to the wind today and updated the site to 7.3 beta 2. It's called 'beta' for a reason, so while we're under testing mode expect to see some falling bricks, dust, and a few guys leaning on shovels.
For an idea of the thousands of things that have been changed since 7.2, please check the changelog. Thanks to Rick with LOTS of assistance from our very own Ian Spence, Sir Dude, Blaaskaak and even Gizzy and the support of the alpha testers. Hopefully the beta period won't be very long and we can get back to writing mods to break your site soon enough.
Stay tuned as we make use of the paypal integration too... we'll have the nickel tour up and running soon enough
