New forum look

Snazzy

Good job guys!

MyDixieWrecked · 05-25-2006, 04:22 PM

yeah looks nice, though what about avatars?

Ranks seem to be screwy, too. All us low-posting newbies are Generals of the Army!

Perhaps you're still working on it.

Its not a new skin, its a whole new software package. Vb to be precise. A lot more powerful and better suited to large forums. We really did out grow phpBB.

Still a few things need sorting out like permissions to various forums but that doesn't really effect users.

Very nice. Great job guys!

<<-----------HEY! The old smiley names still work!

The old "CosmicDark" theme is still available as "Classic", although a little changed.

DanTesla1 · 05-25-2006, 08:03 PM

Sweet! Yeah, ranks are a bit screwy. I also had to dl and then dump all of my PMs.

One thing you may notice is that every thread you post in you get subscribed to. This can be set up to email you whenever there's a new reply. Currently it doesn't it just subscribes. I found this annoying and disabled it.

VB is kind of annoying, but I guess I'll get use to it.

No seriously - we moved to new server software, entering the late 20th century in that regard.

faker_phil · 05-27-2006, 06:20 PM

I like it, but can you bring the "show new posts" button back?

Thats under quick links in the toolbar at the top of the page.

The "quote last post" button doesn't work in the quick reply box.

TitanSound · 05-28-2006, 01:35 PM

faker_phil · 05-28-2006, 06:34 PM
