It's good to be back, but I have to say (and I may be in the minority) that I actually like the default phpbb template better than the CC.com template. I find the text/background contrast better and the new-message icons easier to spot. The CC.com template uses icons for threads with no new messages that are the same brightness as the threads-with-new messages icons. That, and a few other colour choices make (IMO) the CC.com template harder to read than the default phpbb template. Maybe now's the time for a new template?

Avoiding data loss is no small feat. Great job, Troy!

And then there was much blueness....

And all was good once again....

(actually, not ALL, there seems to be some minor issues with the template still)

Thank you! One of the problems is your name appears in bold, but not orange. Since you have to fix that anyway, I would like to mention that only you and Sava's names used to appear orange, the others and Formendacil green, and Josh, rogue, and ottoatm's regular. I don't know if this matters, but I thought I'd mention it.

P.S. Oh, and when I'm posting, the topic review looks too blue for even my tastes (and I like blue). Screenie.

The Memberlist and Private messages templates have been fixed, so that you can actually read them.

The topic review when replying has also been fixed.

I'll look around and see if I can find any other problems.

Ok, here's another one that needs to be fixed, the 'Who is Online' (I was logged out at the time, so it's just the colors that need fixing).

Great to be back on! I honestly feel ten times better now. And it's great to see all the familiar faces again - it's the community that really builds this place.

Anyhow, back to a life of reviewing, discussing, and KK2 defending...

Also, when you go to 'Usergroups', it's fine, but if you select 'The Admins', 'The Brute Squad'(is that from The Princess Bride?), or 'The Gaming Guardians', they all have the wierd Blue Phenomenon (same as the others I showed you). As far as I can tell, everything else is working fine.

Hehehehe

I'm not complaining... makes me look the same as an Admin. :twisted:

And blue's my favourite colour.

And it seems silly to worry about such pedantry when the whole SITE was gone over the weekend.

Thanks a million to Troy, not only for restoring the site, but for running it for us in the first place. Having it gone shows just how much we love it!
