I'm not going to say that you should revert back, but it would be nice if the site had a little more contrast to the look. This new light blue vs lighter blue (the difference between one post and the next in the same topic, or one topic vs the next in a Forum) doesn't sit well with me. But alas I am just one person, maybe others aren't bothered by it.

I have activated the Sub-Silver Board Style but PLEASE NOTE that that style is not the Official style for this Web Board and so you will not see the Corel Logo or the flash animations that are planned for the near future.

See my earlier post regarding styles and the fact that I do not have access to the Corel Web Server.
It took months for me to get Corel to upgrade to PHPBB3 it would take a few more months to try and talk them into maintaining extra styles.
I have only activated Sub-Silver as a matter of convenience for anyone who has problems with their display.

To use Sub-Silver you have to go to your user control panel and select it.

The old software, as you will recall, had a "Next" and "Previous" button for each thread... But hopefully we will be able to rectify this... :lol:


You will find this in the Sub-Silver Style.

Thanks for giving us the option. I'll see which is easier on the eyes. I appreciate it.

Does the "Quote" feature and Image Tags work for you?
I have found that the BB code is switched off by default so go to User Control Panel click the "Board Preferencies " tag then click on "Edit Posting defaults" and click the "Yes" button next to "Enable BB code by default". You might want to click all the other Yes buttons here.
Then click "Submit"

Thanks for activating the sub-silver, Steve. Much easier to find "new posts".
