I'm not sure if the admin here are interested in tinkering with the mechanics of the formus here, but I have a suggestion...
maybe I am getting old, but I find the difference between:

and

to be just too subtle at times. a simple suggestion, if I may be bold: replace the 'no new message' graphic with a simple black square. that way, it is very clear as to which sections have new messages, and which don't.

Those graphics are relics, and they are on the list to be changed. I want to swap them over to graphics with EC or EpiC on them. They came with these boards (Ikonboard). I will sort this out as soon as I have the time. Thanks for your opinion.

Yeah, this is an excellent suggestion I think, though I have got used to it after a while... any other interesting plans CyberShadow?

There is a list of updates and changes that I want to make. First up, is to add a bit of space at the top, above the graphic. That has been bugging me since day one!
I want to sort out the polls and the ability to vote for more than one category, but after a search of the support forums there does not seem to be anything like this. I will need to search a bit more later. Also, the colour schemes. I dont know how this sits with everyone, but there is only this scheme right now. The original plan was to make one for each entry site to the boards, so that people could set it to where-ever they come from and this place would fit with the colour scheme. Do people want this?
The graphics also need replacing, and I will probably do this one at a time, as I get the time, along with the smilies and other things. That is what I can think of off the top of my head. Any suggestions?
Hopefully, I will work on this list when I return (I am currently on holiday!).

personally, I am only interested in a few of the sections (nothing against the other games, I just have only so much time in a day ), that's why I wouldn't use the 'read all new posts' function.
I look forward to the re-vamp!
