SevTor has undergone a big change since the previous format.
A change back to a CMS that used to run an old version, for several years up to 2007.
I even switched back to the same old skin, which involved digging up all the old stuff, then modifying it for use with the latest version of that CMS.

The change was important because it frees up time that I used on administering the CMS that was running SevTor up to last week, instead of using that time on content - such as stories and links.
And as an added bonus, switching to the "old" CMS allowed me to make the site bi-lingual - the stories remain English-only, unless I actually find the energy and time to translate stories to Dutch, but SevTor itself as a site is now bi-lingual.
And it became much simpeler and less time-consuming to add other content, such as links, a guestbook, and an actual news-section integrated into the site rather than a seperate page where I had to manually enter all the html for each update.
The change even allows me to add forums, galleries and other stuff in a matter of minutes if I'd want to.

So, if you haven't already checked it out, I'd say swing on by right now!
