Looking good Vince!

However, I usually stay logged in but after having to reboot my PC, I could not find where to login. Eventually found it by scrolling all the way to the bottom of the page. Maybe it is just my settings for the site but is there anyway to move the login to the top?

Thanks again!

Not that I know of. Its very difficult to modify something like that and make it work correctly. Messing with one little thing in this site sets off a chain reaction where other things get moved or displaced then you are chasing issues like crazy. I've put a job's worth of hours into the site over the last week and I'm done for now. Maybe some mods can happen later.

From what I can see from the phpBB Forum and documentation, you either
get lucky and someone created an add-on package or plug-in that adds the
features you like. Otherwise, your going to have to get comfortable hacking
up html files to customize what you want, e.g. the file "overall_header.html".
To do that, you really need a parallel development area and database, you
don't want to experiment with the "production" environment -- bugs and
stuff will break. So it's not as simple as it may seem :( That said what
Vice has running now is pretty darn good and a step up from the last release.

Flags were changed to show up only on profiles. (took some time to figure out!)

Avatars can now be bigger. 200x150 px max and up to 100kb.

Nice, makes it less cluttered but still keeps the profile quick reference flag.
Thx for messing with it

I love the look and feel of the new format and colours, a big thank you to everyone responsible, what an awesome effort. :D

Thanks. Yes it was sad to see it go after 10+ years but I couldn't resist the 2001 cockpit one I found.
