I made the big switch tonight, and converted RivetBangers.com over to the latest and greatest version of the forum software!
Unfortunately the functionality to see the past posts over 1,2 or 3 days no longer works, however, I added a modification which lists all the recent posts on the top of the forum categories. Let me know if you like or dislike it, and I will try to find something else.
Enjoy the next generation of RivetBangers technology!

No skins/themes a user can choose from? Hard for me to read with my aging eyesight.

Looks good, especially on the iPhone.

Tom,
I installed a second theme - "we_universal". To check it out, go to User Control Panel -> Board Preferences -> Edit Global Settings ->My Board Style -> we_universal.
Let me know if that theme is any better for you. If not, I'll keep looking!
Thx,
Mike B

Have you been here yet?

My preferences are generally going to be a black or dark background with white font. A font size setting is a big plus.
thnx
