    DEfinitly like the colour scheme now. Not sure that anythign is needed in the background at all. It's mostly covered. Maybe a small monotone faded badge repeated?

    Not great but hopefull good enough to give you an idea. It could be tiled to cover the whole of the back.

    That could be good. I'd love to see it almost like an embedded shadow type thing!

    Also been playing with exporting the database from this forum into the new forum and.....it works!!! Complicated as h3ll but looks good seeing all your posts in the new colour scheme ;D Few bugs yet to iron out, I suggest nobody throws away any avatars or signature graphics!

    Navbars now have a graduation, still can't make my mind up about the overall background though! Bigger banner from Foster tonight, (if she's got time), and I'm starting to like it myself! Must work on the blue icons next.

    How about for the news icons having a colour WFC badge for new posts and mono one for no new posts?

    Good idea, I can get the actual vbulletin images in photoshop format so would be fairly easy to incorporate. The problem right now is knowing when to stop and just get on with swapping forums over ???

    To be honest I would get fully modded to how you like it, show us the screens, see what we think and then once we all or the majority agree swap it over. Then by doing the mods first you should pick up on any bugs that may appear.

    Sometimes it's easier to go live, then bugs are found and reported quicker, and fixed quicker too. I need to do it when I have the following 3 days empty :D

    It's good, but shouldn't we be using the correct badge?

    I'm not saying that it should the 125th Annerversary one, but the club changed the font a few years back.
