[mra]Today CBn is revealing our new forums style.

Designed to coordinate with our new main page style, our forums feature a new red and black style.

In addition, we have added a new feature.

Yes, it was quite hard work watching Evan work his magic. :) He's a virtuoso.

I love it. But to be honest I did prefer the blue. However, the images in the profiles are amazing. :P

Looks like v2.2.0 is being released next week, Dave. However. As usual. It's worth waiting until there's no bugs etc.

More work for you guys. :) :P

Cheers,


Ian

Yeah, I hope so. But we’re in much better shape now as all our extended features are now running with no Mods (modifications).

It should be, but there's going to be more templates to skin. The 'members profile' has been completely re-written. But it won't take you long to change the CSS. :)

Love! The color combo is so much more attractive, and I really like the way you tweaked the headers and such.. I really like the "my bond" option as well (I'd love to have a Moneypenny option though.. you know for the ladies :))

[mra]I have to tip the cap to Righty also as having Bond Images was his idea in the first place.

And Righty also reminded me that I had left Ian Fleming

Got it, thanks :) . However... I'm stuck on 'light' and haven't got the option available to get out of it, which is weird because I regularly switch them, but now I can't, so the Bond image is no good to me yet. Why can't I get out of 'light'?
