Today we’re proud to announce the immediate availability of Community Server 2007 – the best version of Community Server yet!
There are a number of new improvements, but by far the largest is the new theme system “Chameleon”. Chameleon allows people to change the look-and-feel of Community Server without requiring a degree in Computer Science! There are simple to use what-you-see-is-what-you-get tools to assist you in changing colors, graphics, fonts, and more. Also sharing themes has never been easier – Community Server uses a single-file for exporting or importing all of its theme settings, which means you can quickly share your themes with your friends.
Below is a sample screen shot of customizing a Community Server blog theme:
How do I get Community Server?
You can download Community Server, including the free Express Edition, from
http://get.communityserver.org
Where do I ask questions or read documentation?
For questions, please visit http://communityserver.org/forums for documentation or FAQs please be sure and visit http://docs.communityserver.org (our new Wiki and Knowledge Base are now available). Note, we’re still in the process of importing content from our previous documentation system so a few things aren’t working quite right yet in the Wiki.
Need to talk to someone? No Problem!
Yes — you can speak with a real person (amazing we know). Please contact us at http://communityserver.org/contact or call us at +1 972 407 0688. Please start with the contact form as we are SLAMMED right now (a good thing!).

P.S.S., we're hiring for both our Community Server product team and our .NET services team! We prefer people in the Dallas / Ft.

We are also still looking for 3-5 interns interested in working at Telligent this summer.
