Why remove good board features???

Turb,

all of the stylistic work you have done looks great. but i'm wondering if you can redo the template to only use CSS for layout rather than tables.

kthx,

sirstrongbad.

This I really miss. :icon14:
me and raw have discussed this, it will be added.... at some point.

a while back when i was toying with phpBB, i decided to try and do the message icon hack (pre-rolled, by the way). it was a nightmare. now that i know what i'm doing in PHP/SQL, it wouldn't be nearly as difficult. it does, however, require quite a bit of work.

Quite agreed. The chat info is a little too much on each post.

God I miss that thing. It made Q3W the easiest board to navigate i'd ever seen

If there is one feature I'd love to see again, its that one.

You should put the msn/icq/aim/Y! icons and also the pm/profile mail icons under the post count. Also leave out the words and just use alt=profile so when they hover over it they'll know what it is.

And put the quote, edit & delete button to the far right.
And the IM icons,etc should be aligned to the bottom as ap[posed to directly under the post count.

BTW, when I made the yahoo icon I didn't make it transparent so it looks kinda bad because we got different shades now.

I agree. I loved the navbar, being able to jump directly to any forum without a bit of scrolling or extra clicking. The people who didn't use it were missing out -- I didn't use it or know about it for the first 3 years or so I posted here. When I finally started using it, it was like a whole new forum.
