When will this conversion happen?
An exact date for the conversion has not been decided yet by the administrative team but don’t worry, you will be informed way in advanced. I’m aiming for the end of the month, during what will be a slower time for us with the holidays. But that has yet to be decided & we’ll need to make sure what is best time for Loop. I will update with a date when we have one!

Conversion Facts
The board will be offline during the conversion. But We can all hangout in the IRC!
Don’t worry, you don’t have to do anything major, because it should all convert; you could save your signature as a precaution, but will have all images backed up and themes ready to go thanks to Todd, they can be can seen here.
The doHTML tag will not be available after converting to ZetaBoards. ZetaBoards offers a wider selection of BBCode that will let you do things such as create tables and embed YouTube videos without the doHTML tag.
TheEastPacific.com will be fully functional. So will any existing InvisionFree board, topic, and forum URLs will redirect to the new board. These redirects will continue indefinitely & no conflict will exist between existing ZetaBoards board.
There is no conversion back to InvisionFree at this time. The ZetaBoards software offers an improved forum experience.
Only Loop can do the conversion

[edit] I forgot to remove redundant information about the theme.
