As you've probably noticed, I finally ponied up the cash to get my Threads members area renewal, and the forums have now been upgraded to version 6.5.5, which is (probably) the last version in the v6 line.
I've reset the stylesheet and everything to be stock Threads. There were quite a few little stylesheet changes and stuff that happened between this version and the last version I had (which was 2+ years old) and I didn't feel like updating my styles for a version that was only going to be installed for a couple weeks. So we're all back to the stock Infopop stylesheet.
Lord willing and the creek don't rise, tomorrow is the day when the public beta of v7 will be released, so I'll be playing with that for the next week or two before. I won't update these forums until I've got my new Twist style applied, and until I'm relatively certain that I can apply my Twist style without it getting constantly overwritten in the inevitable beta patches.
So that's the deal. Other than my "fix" to make Threads use sha1 instead of md5 for passwords, this entire board is completely stock now, which will make it easier for the v7 upgrade, when that comes. The upgrade had a lot of database changes, so you all may want to go check/update your profiles and display settings in My Home. Nothing should have been harmed, but it's hard to tell sometimes.

I actually like phpbb originaly. It was very easy to modify. Even with my poor knowledge of html and php at the time.
But compared to other system out there at the moment, nope.

True that, but PHP BB 3 is like an abusive boyfriend, "I changed baby, I won't hit you anymore."
