Don't get too used to the new look and features, they are only a temporary step towards the end result.

Hey....it looks spiffy!!!

Wonder if there will eventually be a feature for quoting previous posters when one puts up a reply?

I actually like this new lay-out better. smile

WizKid,

Yes, this is still Infopop, the last version of the Classic UBB.

togol,

LOL!

It will be different, but I think most if not all of the new features you see now will also exist in the final upgrade.

Looks less like an early 1990s forums now, at least smile

Hey, can we have a skin on the new board that makes it look like we're reading an email or a powerpoint presentation? It kinda looks bad when people walk by my desk and see me webbrowsing...

Steve, the software we're going to will allow users to choose from a selection of color schemes and set some other viewing options.

I have seen where we will end up as far as this BB goes.
Please wait guys, the next step is a big one, a totally new look altogether.
Lots of lovely new features too.
Watch this space. smile

I also note that our usernames are "clickable".
And when you reply to a thread, it takes you back to the bottom of the thread you just replied to.
Good stuff!. wink

Yep, as Mike says we've "had a play" with the version which Bill is aiming for and there are a lot of new features on the way! smile

Reminds me of a little TSR years ago which was operated by a "Boss key" to temporarily store the screen contents and display a fake spreadsheet instead!
