Interesting. :tup: :D

I've a few red squares though - is this a cookies thing?

There are some new images used with the updated version - Mister * will probably be able to do those some time this week.

If anyone finds any quirks, please post them in the support forum.

Well, just a few of those red crosses in white boxes (same as Jim mentions, I think), but no biggie. No "problems", as such - everything seems to work. :tup:

The bar at the top of a topic (eg. at the top of this page, where it says "Upgrading Forums") funny looking box with options written on it and a little red x. :tup:

Has the old 'find members posts' in the profile pages disappeared? I rather liked that.

Thankfully, no.

If you look just above where that section used to be on a member's profile Mark, you'll see a button that says Profile Options - click on that.

I like that one receives a pop-up for "new pm's received" when logging on. Also noticed the new edit options. This site is top-notch. :D

Shame about the ongoing use of a 60-second flood control, though. :tup:

I would like to say, bloody well done Admiral Dave. :tup:

I love the extra colours you've added, and like usual, very professionally done.

Here's to IPB v2.1.5. :D :D

All the best,

Cheers.

Evan did most of the work on the styling upgrades - so all credit goes to him for upgrading that for 2.1

The worst thing during the upgrade was finding out where they'd moved the custom BB code parser so I could hack it for the CBn codes.

Hi Dave.

Okay. I didn't know. Well done Evan. :tup:

My friend. Matt's (wanker) doing this all the time. Apparently, (accordingly to my bud bfarber) (another wanker :D ), he'll soon be working on v2.1.5. It's fine...but it's all the blasted template changes, and the re-arranging of the ACP.

Never mind, my friend. CBn more than copes with what's thrown at them from IPS. And, I have to say, how extremely well you guys cope with the changes.

You've been very wise to wait for this version. And as you know, if you upgraded to v2.1.0, there would have been 4 upgrades, plus two security patches. LOL

Keep up the excellent work, guys.

Ciao.


Ian

p.s. Wanna meet up next month?. :D

Nice work, guys. I like the new stuff you added, pretty neat and not overly obtrusive.
