Nice layout. Are you going to put a few user-selectable skins in with it?

Nice layout. Are you going to put a few user-selectable skins in with it?

probably not. because the skins may break after future upgrade. If the authors don't bother to update their skins to the latest vbulletin version, the skins will have to be removed. Then the users will start complaining. :non sono stato io:
Best to stick to the default theme.

looks exactly the same as sat-television.com and maldiviandigital.com and others.

[vinboy]

so, anyone want to stop me from doing the actual upgrade in the next couple of days?? ;)
if no comment, I'll proceed.

As long as we don't lose anything!!!

LOL, very unlikely we will lose anything... ok i'll do the upgrade tonight.. at 2am.
You will see the new layout when you wake up the next morning.

I am just a raw amateur, know very little about computers, but the layout is certainly a lot clearer. That's my 2 cents worth. All the best with the new setup.

[wiilliiss]

how about a colour other than blue?

[Geekster]

I like the floating user CP/whatchamacallit bar, but threads seem a little sparse...

Can't be any more simpler than clicking the What's New? link above all new posts are added there, Vinboy good work nothing wrong with the New skin brings a breath of fresh air to the forum.

[Apsattv]

I have to say I don't like the new look/layout at all

Much harder on the eyes.

Can we change back to the old skin/theme?
