Soon we will be installing a new version of the forum (next week or so) so please let us know if you have any problems once the install is done. The new upgrade looks very promising and many of the new toys have been long overdue. Here are some of the new features that you guys should see The ability to "Like" posts! A new Visual Editor for creating posts. See exactly what your post will look like while you make it! Upgraded attachments system that allows you to easily attach even more files to your forum posts! Lightning fast forum navigation on every page with our new drop-down navigation tree and improved hotkey support. At the top of each page you can see if any of the topics you've participated in have been recently updated tagging to bring a member's attention to a post A Shoutbox integrated directly into your forum! Notifications to help you stay on top of the latest updates to threads you've participated in and more. Send a personal message to multiple people in the same conversation, or even entire groups Per-user activity feeds with the ability to follow other members. There will also be new features that we dont yet know about so please use this thread to let is know about any features you find along the way. We are hoping the transition should be seemless but if you have any problems then dont hesitate to get in contact and we will get things sorted ASAP. Cheers The admin

Well that was a suprise !
I didn't expect the changes until next weekend, but it looks like ProBoards have brought them forward a bit.
Once you've all had a play, please post up any issues on this thread and we'll do what we can to try and rectify them.
Cheers

There used to be a 'recent posts' button on the top of the home page, can we have it back pease? It's a way of quickly getting updates.

Dude there is a recent posts button at the bottom of the page in the ''Forum Information & Statistics'' Im still trying to find out how to get the posts to align to the left instead of the centre as i agree it looks rubbish with them centralised

had a good look at it all day and I don't like it.....love change for the better but this is shocking!
all pics are smaller, the recent posts link doesn't give you the last 50 posts like the old one..... but maybe I'm just an old fuddy duddy.... please convince me this is better?

It looks to me like all text is being formatted as a heading (H3 style). This is giving centre alignment and bold font. No idea how to change it, but is there a setting for default style for posts?
Strangely, it looks fine using Dolphin Browser on my Android phone, but I agree it is rubbish using Firefox on my PC.
