Default Ooo, post subtitles... I like

First off, the one everyone's asking about: member titles. Yes, you will get them. No, you will not get to pick your own. The operation is a bit more involved in phpBB because member titles aren't a built-in feature; instead we have "ranks." That means each member title has to be created as a rank and then assigned to the one person getting it. So it's a bit more work, but I can live with it. You'll get member titles as soon as I've got a good start on the 5MV skin.

Speaking of which, you'll notice "Five-Minute Voyager" is now selectable under skins. If you want to watch the skin develop, you can select it now, because I'm currently working on it. If not, you can just wait till I announce it's ready, and switch then.

Kira: Good point about the new thread links. I didn't realize we did have them until you said so, in fact. Perhaps what's called for is a clearer image for that link -- I'll try making a little "Go To Topic" box or something.

17: HTML is allowed, but "Disable HTML" is checked by default, so you have to uncheck it below your post. Also, as Michiel says, only certain tags are allowed -- if you can't get one to work, tell me and I'll add it to the list.

Derek: I'll see if there's a mod to make that option available, but really... if I can't fool myself about slacking off, why should you?

PHJ: Oops. I guess you did keep your postcounts. Well, maybe it's for the best -- no gratuitous posting threads. Why would this thing keep postcounts and not PMs, though? (Speaking of which, if any of you have PM business at the old board you want to save, I'm going to get it operational soon at /forums2 for a couple of days.)

Neo: No.

Sa'ar: I thought I did set it to -- oh, right, the board's supposed to be set to GMT. It's ME who lives at -5 GMT. I'll fix that.

NAH and Alexia: Right, the smileys. Do you guys like the old ones better? If so, I'll put 'em back.
