There is a way to integrate it with Xfire. Not sure how good it is because the project seems to have very little interest.

I'm going to have a go at upgrading the forums in a bit. So Callie you need to post the normal amount of spam you would post in an entire afternoon in the next 20 minutes or so ;)

This is a bit of a risk. But I had a lot of problems upgrading the forums and time is against me now. I'm reopening the forums before and quickly checking everything looks ok. However I've not run through my checklist of the problems I had with the test conversion and I'm sure there will be many other - hopefully - minor problems. Post any problems you find here and I'll fix them tomorrow.

You can always design your own forum design and I'll upload the good ones to use. Really looking for 3 or 4 styles like we had before so people have a choice.

PHPBB3 automaticly streches avatars to the maximum avatar size (80x80), if you want your avatar to look good you should use a png with alpha channels.

Wow.. i must admit im having a hard time getting used to these new forums. The colours are all a bit too similar, makes it hard to see what threads are new and old etc.
