Updated Theme and a few other tweaks!
Dec 14th
Insanely Wind along with the help of user “matts” has updated it’s theme with various tweaks and other changes to make your forum experience better. Visit the forum to take a gander at the changes! We are still ironing out glitches.
Other new additions to the InsanelyWind community are:
A DSDT Sub-Forum for OSX
And a slightly changed title for “Hacks and Mods” to “Hacks and Hardware”
EDIT: I also added a search bar to the bottom of the forum which uses Google and is a much better search than the stock PHPbb 3.0.6 Search engine. Give it a shot. I am working toward integrating the Google Search throughout the forum. Look forward to better searching in the near future!
Enjoy!

Updating the Blog…
Dec 1st
Hey all,
I updated the skin on WordPress. There is a few changes that I will be making over the next few days to the blog, so there may be some issues occasionally, but I expect not much downtime. This will NOT affect the forum in anyway, just the blog.
Thanks

You might’ve noticed our Forums are locked down to only registered users. This is only temporary, as we are having security issues with someone stealing our guides and reposting them to a forum, trying to copy InsanelyWind. Please, if you would like to continue reading InsanelyWind, you can either:
1. Wait it out for a few days until we resolve this problem (Most likely what y’all would do)
2. Join and just read. (Some people are thinking that we did this on purpose to get new users. I’d just like to say this is not the case, and we thank you for your patience while we rectify this problem…)
Thanks! ![]()
