Everyone's opinion is definitely not cool... 8-) There's liberals that speak the truth, then there's all other wrong and invalid opinions.

I've changed the rules thing. Not that I realized it was particularly exclusive.
Leftist cooties already made the site sick :D

Sick as a dog. But not from the leftist panacea.

These smilies have to go. They lack pop; emotion. I can't express myself with them.

Also, doubt anyone noticed, but there was a strip next to everyone's mini-profile/avatar that said "Online" when we first started the forum. It has now disappeared. Not seeing it for anybody, including myself. And I am always online when I'm on here. :P <----- Get rid of these damn it.

Avatars are back on the left.

Maybe.

Let me know if it registers back to the left for guys in the next week or two before we continue trying to fix this place. Wait two weeks for every fix to go through. Pshh.

Refreshing the page did nothing.

CTRL+F5 as suggested by Slaughter put the avatars back on the left for me.

I recommend everyone do this first thing every time they log in. :p

Just now managed to change the background color to black. Doesn't fix the brightness of the rest of the navigation, though.

And holy hell. There are thousands of different ways to edit the colors of this forum. It took me almost an hour just to find where to edit the basic background color.

As far as editing the actual look of the forum, it is looking ugly for us right now. Do we want it to look as it always did? Or close to?




Edit: Also found where to edit the avatar/signature/post background color. This also changes the topics/replies/views/last post background, too.
I changed it from a bright white-ish to a generic gray color so it's not as blinding on the eyes. That's all I got for tonight.

Black background is great. Forum topic and post backgrounds are still shit.

I hate smilies in general, so I don't care one way or another what you guys end up doing with them.

I still see the "online" tag by the avatars.
