Hey friends. We're updating the board over the next little bit. If it's ever down for a few minutes, it's because we're updating the software. We should have a new theme that will be a big upgrade to the current one available soon.

What's even scarier is I just did a rebrand, website launch, and company identity with the other two dimwits in that picture.

I think I've fixed the permissions issue that was in the way here.

You're welcome.

You did. Thank you sir. We have some final tweaks and then we'll be ready to launch it.

I'm hoping you are going to add apostrophes for Mens and Womens Hoops as in Men's Hoops and Women's Hoops. That typo has bothered me for 9 years, when I first joined the board. For the love of God, let's upgrade our grammar, too.

Glad to see the color scheme matches up with the alternative look on the current board. My aging eyes prefer the white background.

FlamesNation has been updated and the new theme is now the default theme on FlameFans. If you were using the secondary theme, change to the "Flatboots" theme for the new one.

We're still working out kinks and trying to make it perfect, so if you notice anything, let us know in this thread and we'll look into it.

Enjoy!

Looks fabulous! Took me a minute, but I found the "new posts" link. That's a staple. What I don't see yet is the "unread posts" link at the top of a thread with new posts. My SOP is to scroll the new posts page, click on one, then click on "Read unread posts" at the top of the thread. Where is that?

That sucks. Bring back the old way! I don't want to see ALL unread posts. I want to be taken to the FIRST unread post in the CURRENT thread!

I really do like the new look, but I'll stick with the old alternate one until the old functionality is added.

What functionality do you consider to be the "old functionality"?
