The forum is now running the latest version of phpBB (3.0.6). Apart from having a plethora of new features, it ought to be better protected against spammers (which we've seen plenty of, lately).
Still, I'll keep off private messaging for a couple more days, just to see if I need to install any anti-spammer mods.

Please let me know if any errors or similar pop up.

Good job, here's hoping that it keeps the spammers at bay.

By the way, there is some discrepancy between the type sizes in the two available board styles as can be seen in the following combined screen shot.

'Prosilver' is on the left, 'Subsilver2' on the right.

Prosilver was the default style, but I decided to go for Subsilver instead in order to maintain continuity. I think I'll scrap Prosilver altogether.

Yes, there's lots happening behind the scenes :)

I've decided to open the pm system again. The number of users you can contact in this way has been limited, and you have to have four posts under your belt before you're allowed to send pm's.
Let's see how this works out :o
