Maybe make this title bar for the forum with bigger and more bold wording. And maybe change the background of the forum instead of white. It looks kind of boring and doesnt fit with the theme of the site as a whole.

I'd like to see the "quick reply" box back. It helps a lot!

I just fixed a possible Cookie issue, so if anyone was having problems staying logged in, it should be fixed.

We just fixed a cookie problem. So if anybody was having trouble logging in before, it should be all good now.

Because it looks good.

Is there a rule that I can't put past SFGAm attractions in the banner?

^Agreed. It makes the whole banner just look good and especially because we can "remember" Vu. I love the new forums and the banner is great! :D

Right now they don't exist, most likely I'll end up merging them into the FAQ.

And I also just fixed the error that you got after posting, due to having a large search error.

I think that overall, the site looks good. However, as demon boy said, it is helpful to have the quick reply box.

The new forums are wonderfull! Just takes some time getting use to I guess. At first, it was hard to find some stuff. So will we be getting a quick reply? Thanks.

Just a quick question about signatures. I don't remember with the old forums if sig's were shown in the "Headline News" forum or not. I noticed that they are not now.

Really don't care either way, just noticed that they were not there now. Again, I don't remember if they showed up before the change.

Overall, I like the new look of the forums. Those involved did a great job! :D

Here's a problem for ya...

So I was working on the site and apparently I overwrote the index.php file of the forums with the index.php file of the main site. So the main page is completely gone, and I don't have a back up of that.

My Bad...hopefully Kyle still has the backup files on his computer :)

I'm liking all the changes and such, but the front page and all the other pages look like notebook paper, but there are links underneath. Sometimes there is a break in it and lots of topics/words are overlapping and it is very weird. Is it just a temporary problem or something? It has been happening ever since the upgrade was made. Thanks. :)

What Web Browser are you using? Most likely if its a older browser it doesn't understand the new styles of code we're using.

Can you take a screenshot of what you are seeing, and post it here so I can see what you are talking about?

One thing that is a slight annoyance for me. Hyperlinks almost seem hidden with the text now. Anyway to make them a different color or make the underline a bit bigger?

In reference to the person having problems with viewing the site, I'm having that too. But, I know why.

I'm over at my mom's right now, and she still has IE6 on her computer. The forum page is very hard to read, and it looks just like a blank page of notebook paper (white sections, and black lines).

My suggestion for the person having the problem would be to upgrade to either IE7, or switch to Firefox. I currently run firefox at home and at work, and I have no issues with the site.

^Thanks a bunch! I think once I get IE7 it should work fine. Thanks for solving the problem! If I have any issues with it I will ask here.
