This will take a bit of getting used to.
Re: Wow! New Forums!
Well this is a surprise. I am glad the site was upgraded. everyone should enjoy the added flexibility that phpbb3 offers. Not to pimp my own style, but you might want to add this template for thoes who have wide screen monitors. http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopi ... &sk=t&sd=a
The new default style was lacking in some key areas.

I agree ...the user names on the right of the forum index should have been in boldface!

Re: Wow! New Forums!
Given the nature of the forums and the various physics/astronomy discussions that go on, it might be interesting to enable LaTeX support...

Nice,
I like the new PHPBB 3. But whats throwing me still off, is that now the usernames are on the right side. On the left hand side would be better, IMHO.
But otherwise, it seems quite nice.

Re: Wow! New Forums!
I agree, I run my own forum, which still uses PHPBB2, and the other day I was thinking about upgrading to PHPBB3, I think I will postpone that for a while, or wait for some good adjustable styles.

In addition to the new appearance, the registration agreement has changed. I've updated the Celestia Guidelines to include that new agreement.

It's not good that you have to scroll down to the latest post... or do you?

As best I can tell, you just have to be patient. If you've selected the "display most recent post" icon on a Forum topic, the window will automatically scroll down when the window has been fully updated. Unfortunately, that sometimes takes a while.

Actually, the issue I have is that multitopic threads are displayed in a particularly irritating way... in phpBB2 the list of pages was displayed right underneath the topic title, whereas in phpBB3 the list has been shifted way over to the right (to make way for a bunch of detailed but navigationally useless information about who started the thread and when), so I keep missing it and instead click on the main link and go to the first page. Very annoying. Hopefully this can be changed.

Re: Wow! New Forums!
I like that style... having the user information on the left is good. Main suggestion for improvement is as in my post above, in the forum view move the links for pages [1]...[5][6][7] to the left so they appear under the thread title.

Re: Wow! New Forums!
I added the old subSilver style as an option. You can set it as your default in the 'Board Settings' section of your user profile.
