New forum style – done!

Please note, none of the websites mentioned in this post are still active.

It didn’t take too long from me deciding enough was enough and it had to be changed to it being pretty much finished. As much as I love Mike Lothar’s phpBB2 styles, they just weren’t cutting it in phpBB3. Optimization was an issue, and we were missing out on a load of features that the style just did not support. Sure, the colours are a bit bolder than we’re used to, but I think it’ll be fine once we’ve gotten used to them.

I’d like to thank the following people/organisations for their indirect help. Mike Lothar for the original Nosebleed/Conundrum, CiC for the phpBB3 port, and CyberAlien for the ColorizeIt! application. I may even have to put some permanent links up somewhere just to show my appreciation – not that we get much traffic, but y’know, it’s nice to be nice.

All I need to do now is sort out the top image and put a link to here on the index somewhere. I’m glad it was straightforward and there were no major problems. Shit-loads of minor ones, but nothing major.
