Its safe. I was going to post about this later. The backup forum got moved to Yuku last night, and if you had an account on the old forum then you'll get one of these.

My Old Farts Clan forum got moved to yuku also. It assigned about a third of the clan that had underscores in their name a 7 digit ID. I can't figure out how to see the members Email addresses to figure out who they are or reset passwords.
It was supposed to email instructions to all the members on how to sign on and I haven't heard from anybody.

I have not being impressed with them so far.
They lost all data from my wife's site and all backups, so we had to rebuild it from scratch.
The redirect isn't working because they are putting splash at the end of the address.
The should be warning the Admins before they disable the sight, to give them a chance to back up some data, like their member info.

The performance seems good now that the sight was migrated but their conversion procedure was terrible.

Yeah pretty ugly BBS. They have "skins" but nothing seems to apply them. Also can't figure out how to upload photos for avatars.

Meh, for us it's just a backup.

To change the skin:
Under Admin Design select Beta Forum Style
Click on Enabled to change it to Disabled
Click Save at the bottom
Select Skin Library under Design
Pick copy to my skins for the ones you like
Click on apply for the one you want to be default
You may have to go to Customized Skins under Design after that

I think you click on your profile and photos to add an avatar by clicking on Profile Photos.

I think it's easier to preview the skins here before choosing them:
