Howdy.
This is a bit of a head scratcher... and a bit of an annoyance at the same time so I hope someone can help me out.
Without getting too deep into the reasons for it, I backed up our forums and moved em off our normal host to a secondary. Then, I moved them back to the original host.
Did the database backup and all that jazz... no problems.
Well, we got a big error here ladies and gentlemen.
What I run into now is that none of my themes are working and all my top links are directing themselves back to the secondary.
Original - http://www.lowbiasgaming.com/forums/
When I look at the source code for my site I see the old address all over the place. It's in the cookieDomain field and just about everywhere else I look for that matter.
Now, here's where the extra confusing part (at least for a noob like me comes in)... When I did the first move from original to secondary, I didn't have to relink anything... it just worked. that whole "/images/" situation. Ya dig?
Well, when I get into my ACP and look at all the locations for images and all that... they say "/images/(whatever)". They haven't been changed at all in any of this process, but they're pointing to the old location that doesn't even exist anymore.
I haven't yet gone into the ACP and physically changed all that addresses around because I've been working with other problems. While I'm sure this would (probably) fix my image problem, I don't it fixing my toplinks. They all have the original code that contains the "bburl" bit in it.
How can I fix this? Any ideas?

Edit: This linking thing also happens in the ACP. The "View Forum" link takes me to the secondary address.

I can get all the logos working and all the images working but the body of the page keeps the color and layout of the default theme (blue and white).
