I'm assuming flamingsombrero that you were able to post without any log-in etc. Also, did you get any pop-ups?

The colours fucking stink!! And the smilies are dubious....lol
but I love it!! Huge improvement.
Can we post attachments, use vbcode, make a sig, have an avatar, get post counts....all that kind of shit?

Mar: avatars, and post counts are possible if you login. I'll leave that up to the individual, rather than making logging in a requirement of posting to the board. A log-in will allow you to create your own profile, with a choice of built-in avatars, or your own (must be hosted somewhere else, of course).
Feel free to create a login!

That'll probably happen this evening, Mar - no one really expressed a dislike, and no one has vigorously defended the old board. Perhaps no one cares either way... but I like this - reminds me of the board at www.officialdamned.com which is very easy to use. No idea what all the buttons above this posting box do, though I'm sure they're very clever indeed.

Yeah not bad. I would defend the old forum cos I always liked its simplicity but... I'm always open to change if its any good. I use another forum this style and its always been pretty good. Just keep the one room though at the start.. hate it when the forum gets split up into 'topics', makes it a hassle to check all new messages. Ta for keeping this goin Reg! Dave

Hey, like the way u can post straight on as a 'guest' but also register as a 'member'...
(looks like we could be checking 2 boards for a while for the move)

Thanks Davey - I'll feel sad losing the old forum, as its simplicity always appealed to me, but there's something of a good feeling about this one, and there's plenty of geeky types out there (no names...) who like avatars and stuff like that, so I think this is the way forward.
Oh, and I removed the motherfucking swearing filter...
Edit in response to Davey C's second post: yes, I always wanted a fully-featured board that allowed guests to post (not everyone wants to have to login, especially if they're an occasional visitor) but most boards don't allow that. Plus I like the fact that dedicated posters and supporters of fatreg.com (thank you all!) can get a few extras like avatars and stuff that I just don't understand, by registering.
