Double post...

I would also like to point out that the Search feature here is waaaaaaaay better than vbulletin.

It is like night and day awesome vs suck.

Might help cut down on useless posts, the old search engine was terrible.

Can you make the buttons bigger? It makes everything easier to use (like the page numbers under the thread name)
You got my vote for RA2 Wizard. Always and forever.

Jesus tapdancing Christ WE HAVE FINALLY SWITCHED OVER TO NEW FORUM SOFTWARE.
Although I prefer phpBB over SMF, it's still awesome.

Input is appreciated. :)

Its nice to be honest, but all the sigs are broken.
That, and theres no new post search.

Sigs over 300 letters got messed up after the 300, but I moved it out larger.
As for the recent posts, I can make it show a list on bottom, but heck it is so easy to see them.....just look for the big yellow Firestorm, or the image!


If you guy's insist on taking up space with recent posts I will add it to the info center.

I'm just downright confused. I mean, It looks nice, but I honestly don't like the button layout, and how White text and quotes can't be used anymore. I also hate the new security features.
 
Other than that, it looks nice, though. Also, could I please not be notified by e-mail whenever somebody replies to me?

No, I kept it, but you can only look at it fully by scrolling left and right. The whole point of it was to brighten up my sig without being complicated to use.

Oh well. Hopefully that'll be fixed, soon.

You must have been in your profile panel and checked to be notified.....go uncheck it.

What are you talking about?
Your sig can only be 600 wide.....I hope that your screen is AT LEAST 800 wide (ok, if it is ONLY 800x600 it may break....you need a new monitor AND video card)

I can't change the settings for one or two people with equipment that came over on the Mayflower!

It is there, see that tiny very dim arrow at the very top right corner of the forums? Click on that and it will expand to show some hidden stuff including Show unread posts since last visit.
