New look to the site

Become a Fantastic Freddie Fan

The page has grown by leaps and bounds - and today we saw one of the problems with becoming so successful in attracting visitors. The forum crashed when we got so many visitors. Currently, the Google ads on the site cover most of the hosting cost.
