Forum update run overnight

I did a pretty major forum update last night.

If I've done it right you won't have noticed anything but if you do find anything wrong, send me a PM and I'll look at a fix.

For simplicity we've reduced the template look to just 2.
Subsilver (the default) and MorpheusXDarkBlue.

Both have the same mods installed. No one seemed to be using the calendar so that's been dumped. Ditto the attachment mod. The files being uploaded were so small that it seemed a lot of work for files that could be hosted elsewhere or emailed.

It seems the new style cuts the right hand side off of avatars...

The avatars are fine if you go to the standard Subsilver theme.

There's no quick reply button anymore, I was also getting an extra horizontal scroll bar under every post regardless with the new morpheus theme. Using the subsilver one now and it's fine.

Edit: yeah it's just the morpheus extreme skin, morpheus and subsilver have no extra scrollbars. Firfox 1.0 (yeah I know, been meaning to update :))

The quick reply is there (at the bottom of the page). It's built in to morpheus and morpheusX by default. It's on by default in both too. It's never been in subsilver.

As for the scroll bar that might be the wide picture fix we have but it's not on my screen. That might be a firefox thing.

:doh: scratch that up to visiting different forums with different layouts.

No one else seems to have the scrollbar prob so it's probably something on my side.

Nah, I have the same scrollbar problem but I don't want to be a whinger, jsut switched the theme :-)

I had it with multiple themes ( using opera 8 )
seems subsilver is ok but I'll experiment more

Edit: morpheus is wider than the screen, morph extreme with scollbars. subsilver ok.
but interestingly the two problematic both loads up all right, and just 'puts the problem in' when everything is loaded...strange.
