Conversion to phpBB3
I've converted these forums to phpBB3. We will be tweaking and adjusting them in the coming days to fix little annoyances about the new version (such as replacing the default theme with one that isn't quite so blue). Please bear with us and let us know if you find any major bugs in the new version.
Re: Conversion to phpBB3
The board is also now at: http://forums.nfoservers.com (just as the main rentals page is http://www.nfoservers.com). The old URL should continue to work, but please update your bookmarks and links.

Re: Conversion to phpBB3
PHPBB3 definitely is more eye-friendly and far more adaptable and new of course. I definitely agree with you that it needs a new theme especially in NFo's case - your logos/website are all dark-themed and I think this should follow a little more suit. Possibly a black/red background with black/red border and white text to incorporate your logo's colors.
Definitely looks better now though, although like you said, some fine-tuning is needed.

Re: Conversion to phpBB3
First off, the default skin was way better, not to mention, it's compatible with almost every screen resolution. This "new red theme" is the same, doesn't look that compelling, and it stretches my browser where I have to actually scroll to the right to see what at the right side of my screen.
Second, I probably shouldn't say it's the "worst" skin ever, I've seen worst, I was just being a little bit sarcastic about it, but to tell you the truth, I really don't like this new skin. I even attempted to look through the "User Control Panel" to see if there's a setting to revert it back to the old layout, but I had no luck finding it.

I'm sorry about the sizing, we'll be looking into that and you should see the option of choosing the other styles in your User CP now.Tassadarmaster wrote:First off, the default skin was way better, not to mention, it's compatible with almost every screen resolution.

Re: Conversion to phpBB3
I don't know if you guys have ever learned, red text on black background does not work...
You definitely need to either mod it to be more dynamic or make it look more professional and less in-line with what clans use. I can definitely see it conflicting with different resolutions as someone mentioned before. I like it for the most part but text color and contrast needs to be taken into consideration (ie: red text on black or vice versa BANNED, and maybe more brightened shades of colors).

Re: Conversion to phpBB3
We've changed the theme back to something closer to the default while we continue to hone new options.
