The links to this pre-crash site don't work (or don't always work).

What Liam is talking about is this

But I don't think the designs you are looking for are there. Takiro may have a copy of them.

just a general question , how many earlier iterations of the fan boards did bt have and is there a possibility of still tapping into them . did each of the earlier owners of bt have fan boards or am I way out in left field again .

There were several iterations of the fan boards- the owners didn't change (other then property going from fanpro to CGL but that didn't affect the boards- it remained the same) but the boards got hacked/had technical problems and basically they had to be wiped clean with all the old posts lost. As far as I know all of the post from the older boards are just gone.

this seems to be one of the former fan boards... though some of the topics have been deleted and replies also .
