Really easy to upgrade too...takes about a minute

Not that it really matters on my site since I dont have alot of users (yet, hopefully) and all of them post in just one section so far.

I never use default icons... So my racing flags are coming soon to a browser near you!

 

But as far as updates go... That no my yob, mon. Mr. Wizard does that.

I think the hosting company is supposed to keep us up to date on the versions. I'll ask. This is what they installed for us. I could install it myself but if there are problems they woudn't know we had updated. Plus, one of the reasons we went with this approach was so that I didn't have to baby-sit yet another server.

So can we get better smileys and other "teweaks"

Why is sig text in purple??

[dave]

Beats me. I think it's a nice touch that the text is smaller, but the line height is too big. Whoever did these templates loved lots of vertical white space.

[Joe C]

Skeered to go "purple" way too feminine lookin

[volt]

Joe I'm in default skin but my sig text is purple??

 

 

And dave is right,,way too much white space below the text. v

There's nothing wrong with purple, it just clashes with my blue browser theme

What about "show all" as well for the topics listed in each section.

What about "show all" as well for the topics listed in each section.

You mean use "show all" as the default? What's wrong with 30 days? I think there may be performance reasons for limiting it.
