Will pop up the new skin tonight compliments of Nighthawk :)

He's also refreshed my memory regarding the redirect on the site, so I've just updated it.

The old http://www.ftoaustralia.com now automatically directs to you index.php - aka the main page :)

Congratulations kids, you've spec-f**king-tacularly failed suggestion box 101. Clearly a few children ran outta tampax this week. I've removed the sh*t.

From now on, you're all going to PM me all suggestions for the theme. I will tell you if its doable or not.

So far, suggestions Im taking onboard:
1. Darken fonts
2. Darken grey scheme
3. Enable quick reply box without use of quick reply button
4. Post / New Post / Popular post etc icons to be enlarged (possibly use Mitsi logo)
5. View last post icon to be larger

Thing in my to do list:
1. Enable mobile user script
2. Redo Favicon

For those of you dealing with the massive headache of having to click the login button to enter your login details - ensure you tick the box "Keep me logged in"
Im not going to reinstate the main page logon areas for security / spam bot reasons.

May potentially look at a different car pic for the banner, but not on the priority list. Keep in mind, making changes to a phpbb theme like this, is not like using mspaint. Its all code cutting & very time consuming.

Bookmarks are useful at avoiding that.
