I like it but ER's emoticon plugin for Greasemonkey doesn't seem to be working, the emoticoms just show up as font colours :?

I don't like it... :cry: At least a few of my favorite smileys are still there. :D :) :( :? :wink: But no "roll" smiley...

For everyone whining about the new emoticons:

Here's all the ones from phpBB 2. If we could get them uploaded we could get them in there.

I want the old smileys back, and maybe some new ones too. Other than that, the new forums are pretty good. I don't really see any new features that I would use. However, it's always good to replace outdated software, especially this type. It's a little different but not so weird that I hate it. Bring back the smileys and we'd be all set.

I am glad it conversion process went well (this time). Last time we tried it was a cluster-you-know-what.

Have fun and be sure to let me or the mods know if you'd like any new cool features!

Ya? I'll be on the lookout for any cool add-ons.

New features...hmm... something with the usergroups. Definitely. Usergroups you can join once you've portablized a system, instead of just the portablizer titles(don't change those, I love my custom title every time I see it)

It's a forum, woohoo! I'm glad we upgraded for some of the new features and hopefully added security measures. Perhaps there will be less bots getting in. Aside from that, as long as it runs smoothly I'm happy.

I hate it. It took me like 10 minutes to figure out how to access my PMs. :lol:

As long as you are bringing up forum features, it would be cool to have my forum chatbot integrated once it is done. :D

YES! I was afraid the upgrade would fix my "super savebox"! (Note my "145 messages out of 100") All you suckers are stuck with 100, while my saving power is unlimited! BAHAHAHAHA! :mrgreen:

Usernames are incredibly small. One size bigger, and left centered would be great!

Other than that, it's good.

Yeah the CSS needs more tweaking, maybe I'll get some more done before LOST. Can't miss LOST!

I also think the Board index >> Community >> Whatever thing at the top is too small as well.

The "Online Status" button can be put under the sig next to the PM/Profile buttons?

The Report button should be on top-right to prevent accidental presses.

Now would be a good time to integrate the user feedback system for trades. Also, the links need to open in a new window instead of escaping out of the forums.
