    That's Jon BonJovi, by the way. It's one of the included ones.

    Hey this is kinda trippy like when someone gives you a glass of sprite over ice but you think its water (or vise-versa) and there is this initial shock. Then you realize it's ok.

    I need to turn down the brightness on the monitor though I think this could be a contributer to skin cancer. :-\

    Looks like a lot of cool features.

    I hit next instead of the page number. This takes me of course to the next thread where I'm at first confused as to why the topic changed. Glad to get that straight now. Bet I'm not the only one.

    It's always nice to have the septic tank pumped out. Thanks Jefe.

    I like the little boxes with letters in them. I can't wait to see what they all do.

    Need me to create a nice skin? Also, if you have pspell module compiled with PHP you can use a built-in spell checker. Much better than spelling cow.

    Yup now the entire Fugly world looks like a carbon copy of the Thatsites.

    I know you're an idiot but some times you still manage to surprise me.

    If you would like to do that, please feel free. That might be a lot of work though, since there aren't many themes available to start with. I looked and didn't see anything that was even close to the colors we want. This is the default. It's what it looks like when you install it and do almost nothing to it other than change your icon to Bon Jovi.

    If anybody wants, I'll upload a whole set of pictures of Grimjesus' wife that you can use instead.

    I'm going to reinstall PHP anyway pretty soon so, when I do I'll make sure to compile it with pspell.

    What do you all think of this thing? Is it enough? To me it seems to be a lot better (so far) than PHPBB. Has anyone noticed any features that are missing?

    the biggest thing, is No more spam. I like it directs it to that area, and hopefully, Tommy and grim can lay off the paint chips, and not post in it.

    It doesn't actually redirect it to that area. I created that one in PHPBB and was manually moving spam to it. I was going to write something that scanned through that area and deleted the users' accounts but then it just didn't seem to make sense to keep putting pieces of duct tape on that old forum in the hopes of fixing it. We needed a fresh start with something better.

    If this is good for now, just let me know what mods you want added. If it's still lacking or it doesn't help with the spam, we'll upgrade to something better.

    All the old data is moved over, minus all the security holes and extraneous mods that were on the old one. I was playing with the search and it seems to work great.

    So far so good, but let's keep looking for defects and whatever add-ons you guys would like.

    Yes. I am no match for your cognitive powers. I'm completely under your control.

    Now shut the fuck up while the rest of us adults discuss how to improve the forums.

    Well you want to improve the fourms, Find a style that's not the default. Post a few up let people pick the one they can live with. Put a link on the main site to attract visitors. Then go back to your hole and let us get back to what we do best.

    Did you want the same sort of colour scheme as you had before then? If not, what did you have in mind exactly?

    Personally I want the Brown/green/yellow scheme back.

    What is the general consensus? Do you all like this vanilla baby blue thing or would you prefer to make it look like the original Fugly colors? Since you all are the ones who use it, it should be up to you to decide.

    Reizvolles is very good at this kind of thing. She made the buttons for the PHPBB version.

    Everybody post your opinion of what it should look like and I'll gather as many existing themes as I can and add them.

    I like the green, Hell it's part of the reason I liked the site in the first place it gave it a certain charm.
