If the little square/cube moves, it's because it's an "hot" discussion

Hi Jabba and Fishfreek,

Good work, although at first it was a bit of a shocker. It's very different.

I don't mind the light colours, it's a little easier to read. The quick reply function is excellent and being able to quote smaller parts of a post without having to delete manually is great too. I also like the gender and age thing.

I haven't looked at the multimedia section yet, but I'm getting curious now.

No problems so far, only the fact that it seems slower than the old forum.

EDIT: holy crap, I'm a light weight now...

The basic page and multimedia section are great, but i had a little problem uploading more than 1 photo at a time (got SQL error, then multiple entries).
New forum looks and functions (quick reply) are much, much better than before. I think the forum is a bit slower, but not always - but it seems that it's not connected with number of posts in a topic or something similar. All in all - great improvement, thanks Jabba&Co!!!

Right now the speed is fine. I was downloading at the time, but it was slower than usual while downloading.

The multimedia section doesn't log me in automatically (I think this has been reported already), then when I return to the forum I have to login again. Usually I don't have to. Even the front page said I was online at the time, which is a bit strange when you still need to log in.

Small detail: the page numbers at the bottom don't tell you what page you're currently reading.

I forgot to mention earlier that I'm glad you didn't change the system and categories of the forum.

Only work around I have come up with so far is to keep two browsers open one for the the multimedia section the other for the main page....
