I have an idea, what if users can change the forum appearance in the user control panel?

That way, everybody can see the forum how they want to see it...

The theme/style is (and will be) so heavily customized that users have to stick to this one theme to not miss out on features. I don't see a problem with it though, as this is how most forums operate.

Sorry. ;)

I agree with Dekar. I had 3 styles on my site once when I was running phpBB 3.0.2 and that was a headache as I have well over 30 mods and lots of customization that making sure they all had all the features working properly can be very time consuming to say the least so now I just stick with one style. Much easier to keep everything in order now. :D

By the way, What ver of phpbb are you running and what style is this? I really like it. :)

Yeah that's the biggest problem of having multiple styles. I add all mods manually and I'd rather not spend time editing 3-4-5 different styles each time a mod is added. ;) Besides, I like how the forum looks now. It's actually just a simple, plain style that I've modified heavily. :)

I'm using phpBB 3.0.5 btw.

When I went up to 3.0.5 thats when I went to just one style as well. Was alot of work just making sure one style was working let alone making them all do the same thing. LoL

Looks great here and good job with the style. I really like it.

In the arcade, I think we should have it so the people with the most high scores are shown like the leaders are...
