I can ban a user name but not delete it now.
The forum is new to us too, I'll have to figure out if that's something for double names so I don't make it worse
And we have to fix some oddities as well...

It looks nice, but everything looks backwards to me. It seems like every forum that I've ever dealt with has always had the user information to the left rather than the right.

Edit: I also for some reason keep clicking save rather than submit.

Congratulations!
Nice looking, but hard on the eyes after watching for a while. A less intense green (pastel or something) would be more comfortable, don't you think Carlos?
Good work, anyway.
Cheers, npap

Very nice look, Carlos you are very talanted :D

I have noticed a bug with it tho. When your typing a message and you click any of the buttons "Quote" "Code" "list" ect ect and any of the smilies they dont work.

is anyone else having this problem?

Happinesses that pleasant is seen .
But since it has changed the color is not possible to insert the Smilies in the post.

I thought it was just me... but darn! That blue theme used to screw with my eyes so bad. The new scheme is so much easier on the eyes. Am I right in thinking that blue theme is the default one for phpBB? Who ever designed the default theme must of been colour blind or something.

Emoticons aren't working now though. Though you probably know this.

Heh just realized people were leaving comments in here. Thank you all for you support and I'm very pleased that you all like it. Things are slowing getting into shape on the online side of things.

We are trying to find bugs and clearing things up as soon as we can. So please keep leaving feedback and issues. Again, Thank you all for your support.

belovedmonster : yes that is the default theme that comes with phpBB. Blue is always a safe color to go with since it can be neutral, but I agree with you, for some reason it always strained my eyes a bit too.

Great job on the forum. The "Mint" look is indeed very pleasing to the eye. Good job Carlos.

I like the look. Only one feature still eludes me. I am unable to have a sig show up in my posts. This is the code I've inserted in the sig line: Image
It looks fine in the preview, but no sig in my posts. What am I doing wrong?
