Can I troll the regular members still, or is that not allowed anymore?

Forums look nice GSH. Thanks for making them. As a suggestion you should make the theme the same for when you are both logged in or logged out.

Nope. None of this existed 26 hours ago. I'd have been making backups if I had any inkling things would have to change.

Plug: http://dreamhost.com/ makes it really easy to do a bunch of things. See https://panel.dreamhost.com/index.cgi?t ... installer& for their 1-click installs of a bunch of things. (EDIT): Looks like that second link requires an account. Not sure offhand if there's a public version; not going to try and dig in.

GSH,

Thank you for establishing an easy to use and view site for the community.

I looked at Neilk1's site and no offense meant to him, but all those little dots made me feel like I needed to clean my glasses.
Having poor eye sight stinks! ;->

Thanks Again

You do know that in most webbrowsers, holding down control and rotating your mousewheel expands/contracts the sizes of everything? On these forums, there's a text size changing widget in the top-right, just below the search box/buttons as well. But, ctrl-mousewheel is your friend if text is small.

The problem of N1's site is that the background is a starfield, and you can't change the theme, which is probably what TnT's referring to.

I suggest setting more posts per page. This could get, erm, interesting seeing as it is only 10-15 it looks like (didn't count).

Quick reply mod would be nice to have as well, and if this if PHPBB 3.6 or higher it should have quick reply built in, turned on in forum options.

Enabled quickreply.

Not sure where to set # of posts per page. It is a little low for my taste.

It is in one of the windows. I think board features or another menu in that list.
