Sup fools.
And here I figured the board was down all these days. Had to start venturing to other, less refined boards.
I'll need some time with this.

In the meantime,

Can I suggest one formatting change?  The current format appears to be set so that the web page width does not adjust to the browser window, which means that horizontal scroll is necessary… which is very annoying.   You might do this on pages where graphic layout is important, but on a forum it doesn't make sense.   (It could be the bar across the top that is doing this).  I think it ought not to be too hard to fix.

Otherwise, the glitziness will be hard to get used to after the years of Halloween-Goth, but nonetheless it's very nice to see an update, and modern forum software.   Nice work.  

I'm glad to see someone else complaining about this. I posted about that in the other thread, but it was mainly focused on the main page and not the forums, but I especially agree about the forums.

In the style.css file, someone needs to get rid of the "width: 930px" line in the style for the wrapper class:

#wrapper {
        margin:0 auto;
        min-height:100%;
        width:930px;
        background-color:#000000;
        padding-bottom:22px;
        position:relative;
}


and get rid of the "background-image: url(http://www.930.com/wp-content/themes/930/images/bgs/brick.jpg)" on the body tag and the "background-image: url(http://www.930.com/wp-content/themes/930/images/global/header_lights.jpg)" on the  <div id="WPheader"> tag. That should do it…

There are ways for users to override a web site's stylesheets, by the way. I'll be doing that real soon now if nobody makes any changes.
