I like the theme, but my only nag is that the new posts are a bit hard to spot - I wonder if you can change the colour, maybe yellow. Also the code boxes blend in too much with the background.

I know i am not a good gfx artist but what about a small eyecatcher banner/logo for the header like the attached one i did?

i used the original logo that is available atm in the header... sorry to its original author, that i used it.

Whoa! I missed the whole thing! 

Good to see such a fast recovery!

(Too busy typing in YABASIC is what it is).

Next time you pass the pub, have a drink on me,
Cheeeers,
Clyde.
Sounds like a good idea.
Nothing to do with Bits, the attack (if it was an attack) was aimed at a much lower level on the server than the hosting account, it wasn't aimed at us at all, maybe it was even aimed at Hostpapa because they do suxx.
Way too similar to the ezBoard shit. Hostpapa can go and fucking die.


Sorry I haven't been back till now, I'm after spending the weekend as a crusty watching Orbital and Brian Wilson up to my nose in muck. Great to be have the site back. Thanks for your work, Nick! :)

Those are pretty simple things to change, I agree on the new post buttons, remind me about that in a week mate. Code boxes seem ok to me though. What does everyone else think?

I know i am not a good gfx artist but what about a small eyecatcher banner/logo for the header like the attached one i did?

i used the original logo that is available atm in the header... sorry to its original author, that i used it.

The logo was drawn for us by Dicab of Alcatraz, Im nit sure that he'd like his work to be used in this way, I am guessing that he'd like some control over it, the logo was actually drawn for a DBF demo, I just added it because we needed one. I really like the simplicity of what we have at the moment tbh, but again, what does everyone else thing?

Next time you pass the pub, have a drink on me,
Cheeeers,
Clyde.
Sounds like a good idea.

I like Jameson but I wont be using any of the sponsorships to fund myself :) Nice sentiment mind.

hey Shockwave... do you feel comfortable with the yellow online indicator? a green one should be more visible (IMHO), isn't it?

I think they are just fine as they are now.

Regarding the logo at the top, then I'm fine with having it just simpel as it is now, I don't think it needs anything extra.

Not without me modifying the themes template, I would like to incorporate the one you did in something soon though.

Ah well! Maybe we can have a bottle as a comp prize for lqast place and you can make a BITSesque entry to win it. :P

I'm loving the "simple" logo. Nice and clean.
