Now, not only are the forums back, the 5MV skin is available! It's far from finished, but it's working and I think it looks pretty d@mn good. I'll be continuing to work on the boards over the next few days to iron out the wrinkles, so if there are any changes you'd like to see, let me know.

That's odd. The skin was showing up until I logged on, then it reverted back to the gray and white. Is there somewhere where I get to pick the skin or something?

Anyway, just to tell you that the textbox entries for the 5MV skin I saw were near-invisible. Other than that it looks good!

Edit: Scray that, I found the right button to push. One thing though-- can't read the text on the submit and preview buttons. I guess I'll just treat them like they're labelled in Russian-- I'll guess which one is which.

Wow...I found the button too. It's not exactly what I was expecting, then again I was expecting it to be 100% the same...which is just stoopid of me! Its very...dark. The shade of grey is probably the reason, I'll adapt! Cool you got the skin up so quick though! :mrgreen:

Oh yeah...and the preview/post button, what 17 said! I'm gonna guess the one on the right is post...

Nice. It still needs some polishing in places, but nice all the same.

Very nice! The Forums now have a shade of grey. Also, if we could have the ability to write our own member titles - we`d be quite happy. Could that be arranged? :twisted: :twisted:

You pose a good question. The answer is, I'm afraid, "soon." I've started "Azati Prime," which will KICK ALL THE @SS IN THE UNIVERSE, but it's not done yet; this month I've been tied up in math camps. In addition, I have other 5MV work which is at least as high a priority as Season 3 -- to say nothing of my actual summer job. However, rest assured that I'm working on it, and I guarantee that at the absolute worst I'll have caught up before Season 4 starts.

And yes, I'm aware of the button problem. Details at eleven.

What a stroke of luck! The colour of the buttons is the same as the colour of the quote boxes. Two fish fixed with one stone.

Heh. I see you also have also switched them back so that the submit butten is on the left again. You really do everything to make the forumgoers happy, don't you?

It's ok, Zeke ... in the interim, any chance we can get the 3rd Season page updated? It's tough finding some of the 5ers in the News section...

Hmmm... I like it. :3 You've probably noticed everything I would critique, too. ...like the fact that it's very... yellow. @_@

But it's great so far! :mrgreen:

ok I'm a bit slow or something, but when I log in I don't see the new skin. What's up? but when I'm not logged in I see the skin. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Please help!
