When uploading files to the server, please ensure that the file you upload does not have any spaces in its filename. If there are spaces in the file’s name then users will encounter problems when trying to download your file (it will not download with the correct file extension). Replace any spaces with either an underscore or a dash. For example: “North_American_Facepack.zip” and “North–American–Facepack.zip” are both acceptable filenames whereas “North American Facepack.zip” is unacceptable because it has spaces in it. I have added this note to the section of the site where users can upload their EHM addons.

Follow the NHL Playoffs this month by using CatchUp’s ADM Wallpaper! The wallpaper is in a tree-style format and shows the latest score for each series. It’s updated on a daily basis and so your desktop will always be right up-to-date! You don’t even have to repeatedly download the file on a daily basis; if you follow our guide, your wallpaper will be automatically updated! Here’s the link to the guide: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi … 3398#33398

Due to the problems with the hacking last month and the discovery of a potential security hole in the KB script, we disabled the KB. However, the system has been replaced with one based in the Forums and all of the KB articles have been moved across. Having completed this work, the KB (and, of course, the EHM Guide) is now back up and fully working!   To access the KB, click on the ‘TBL EHM Guide’ and ‘Knowledge Base’ links in the navigation header at the top of the page. If you wish to submit and article to the KB,...

With the start of the Stanley Cup Final only five days away, there’s never been a better time to download CatchUp’s ADM Wallpaper and follow the the series’ progress in style on your desktop! For the remaining two teams in the Playoffs, CatchUp has snazzed-up the logos with a flame effect. It all looks very cool! If you have Windows XP you can even setup the wallpaper so that it will automatically update the series score after each game has been played! You find more information about downloading the wallpaper and how to have it automatically update here: http://www.ehmtheblueline.com/forums/vi … 3398#33398

After about 19 hours of downtime, TBL is back online! Our site was hacked via a security hole in our Blog System. This hole has now been removed and we should now be more secure. As a result, users will no longer be able to upload images via the Blog System; users will have to use an image hosting site instead. All of the mayhem of the server crashing (due to the hack) caused part of our database to become corrupted. This is why when we came back online last night, errors came up whenever someone tried to post. I’ve...

The community’s resident avatar man has produced some stunning avatars for our Forum. Over the past six weeks, CatchUp has been taking requests for avatars in his cool ADM (After Dark Multimedia) style. Now, to top it off, he’s released a set of ADM-style avatars for each NHL team. To add one of these avatars to your TBL Profile, follow these simple instructions: 1) Edit your User Profile by clicking on the Edit Profile icon in the black bar above the site header (it’s in the very top right of the screen).2) Scroll to the bottom of this page and click on...

TBL is very proud to present a brand new site feature: EHM Blogs! Now you can share the highs and lows of your EHM team with the rest of the community! Not only that, but fellow users can post comments and suggestions about your blog, allowing you to get feedback and suggestions on how to improve your team. Your blog may also be a good way of publicising your EHM projects and for keeping the community up-to-date on how your project is going. This will allow you to get feedback on your projects. Our EHM Blog System can thus be used...

So, does the announcement of development of the EHM series mean TBL is shutting down? Hell no! Now more than ever it is essential to keep TBL running, to keep providing content for people to add to their games, to keep talking about and playing the game. So we ain’t going nowhere. Not any time soon. Please people, continue to come to The Blue Line and celebrate this great game and the friends from across the world we’ve made by running the site. Not for us that run the site but to keep the dream alive. Do it for Graeme and...

As part of my continuing work to upgrade and improve the site, I shall be making some improvements to the TBL Points System. This shall make the System easier to run for the Admin Team and should make the System a little fairer. Rather than the Admins having to award points for a user’s 100th post, this shall be done automatically. This will remove a great burden on the Admin team and will ensure that nobody slips through the net. As a result, the everyone’s points will have to be reset. Don’t worry; you won’t be losing all of your...
