Congratulations on your new look!! Well done. Haven't "explored" it yet, but from the looks of it - "neat".

Now there's a small problem for me though one of my other fav forums also looks like this and now I will be confused where I am. So don't be surprised If you fide me posting how to do a Range Rover head gasket overhaul job here :shock:

Mabrook, this looks real neat! :D

Best of all the cookie problem seems to have dissapeared. Now I can log on irrespective of a proxy.

I am glad you like it! :)
Now Dubai Forum has many more possibilities like attaching images and reporting abusive and spam posts.
We can also have subforums, so DF will change a bit in the near future. I have yet to implement a lot of things.

If you find any problems with the new version of the forum write them here.

Re: Congratulations DF - could be wider Nov 24, 2009
Congrats on the upgrade & new look.

One input though, it could be a little wider. I think most of displays now have 1024/1200/1280 pixels wide resolution.

Agree with Xty on the width issue.

But overall it looks like it's a change for the better. Congratulations !

Besides, I was tired of looking at that mid-30s woman with the burj al arab back drop.

Bahh ! now I have the same problem I'm having with my rangy forum which uses the same PHPBB. I have to log on manually everytime. Good thing Firefox saves me info and I dont have to manually type it in though.

But really no issues regarding that. a small price to pay for change I say 8)

You'll get used to it don't worry. Plus I rather click on the ads here and contribute to the site rather than paying for RK's booze !

Yea it's getting a lil too cluttered. I opine a wider screen would be great. On a cell phone the small interface gives me a headache.

Plus the color combo isn't really working. Why not try contrasting colors, like a light backdrop, but the headings and posts in a darker shade like dark maroon or sometin?

How bout a way to stop spammers from crapping all over the place. Or assigning a regular member to powers to remove the spam if it cannot be done automatically. Captcha would only work for bots
