This is one of the best forum skins I've seen lately. Wonder who designed? Kudos to that person!
Recommend it to your friends!This is one of the best forum skins I've seen lately.
And the best thinking.I agree, this is by far the best looking math help forum I have ever seen.![]()
Wow! This is indeed a great compliment then! I had no idea we had such a dignitary here!...
Guys, we have been complimented by the owner/admin of one of the best forums on the net, physicsforums.com! It's a great compliment coming from Greg, who has been doing this for a long time....
Thanks Jameson!I don't know how I missed dethfire registering last February. Guys, we have been complimented by the owner/admin of one of the best forums on the net, physicsforums.com! It's a great compliment coming from Greg, who has been doing this for a long time.
@dethfire - We hired a designer from That1Design to do the work. He's amazing and it was the best money ever spent. He's ours though! Don't go using him too!!![]()
I am not impressed with vB5 right now. Are you guys going to upgrade when it goes gold? I will be watching for sure to see that! Your forum is so fast and has millions of posts so I think scalability and speed must be primary concerns.Thanks Jameson!It really is wonderfully unique and full of character!
No worries, at the moment my mind is preoccupied by the debacle that is vB5. But that deserves a whole other thread
Cheers!
Not a chance would I upgrade at Gold. I've been keeping track of the Beta's and I have yet to be impressed. The performance is terrible on the demo. Key features will be missing in Gold. URL structures are changing. They say redirects will be in place, but I can't trust that at the moment. I really don't know what they are doing. I've been mulling over whether to switch to IPB or Xenforo (the lawsuit still worries me). Either way, I'm staying put on 3.8 for the foreseen future and wait for the chips to land. It's a shame because I quite like 4.2, but it's now a dead end.I am not impressed with vB5 right now. Are you guys going to upgrade when it goes gold? I will be watching for sure to see that!

Hi Ackbach,Greg,
I'm just curious: are you still running 3.8, and the new PF look is more or less cosmetic only? Or did you upgrade/change software? If so, what are you running now? Any issues with the data migration?
I knew I have seen it somewhere before! Thanks for ringing the bell!$$L_X \omega = d(i_X \omega) + i_X d \omega$$ is the Lie derivative of a form.![]()
In particular, $\mathcal{L}_X\omega=d(i_X\omega)+i_Xd\omega$ is commonly known as Cartan's magic formula.I believe Chris said what they were in the chat once. The equation $$\nabla \times E = - \frac{\partial B}{\partial t}$$ is one of Maxwell's equations, and $$L_X \omega = d(i_X \omega) + i_X d \omega$$ is the Lie derivative of a form.![]()
