The above looks odd on the template, which is the "sticky" tooki post on the top of the forums. That icon for the "last post" needs to be switched out and the spacing needs tweaked.

another thing thats borked that hasn't been noticed is if you post a url like:
Google (using no bbcodes)
it doesn't autoget the title and format it in bbcodes (it used to...)
I miss that feature.

Hmm...we used to be able to do [FONT] tags in sigs - this seems to have stopped working. Was that by design, or by accident?

Any chance I could convince you to re-enable it?

Well most of the time the posts do all look the same, but occasionally you get the 11 year old who writes in bright pink, size 16 font and comic sans. Someone usually tells them off and they stop.

IMO, these rare cases aren't justification to turn off the font tags.

LOL, it's fugly . Comic sans is over used and tired, but that's not the point.

Now if DH could disable spammers... feel free.

I assume Frank's window of opportunity has vanished, correct? Now what?
