MAJOR update to the boards was created by voyager
Hi guys, as you have probably noticed these boards have lost their IFAS styling, this is because I had to do a HUGE security update to phpBB (the software that drives the boards) and the update over-wrote some of the tempalte files for the site.

Appart from some very minor tweaking (putting our logo on the top left corner and adding a link to the home page to the boards) I'm not going to re-skin the boards yet because I think it would be a waste of my very limmited time. Why would it be a waste? Well, because I'm currently hard at work on a new skin for the site as a whole so I will have to re-skin the boards soon anyhow. I'm sure we can struggle on with the default look for a while!

Hey Bart - thats was your 1000th post! Happy, er, 1000th post :D

And thanks for the update and your tireless work on keeping these boards going. I'm sure we'll live with it. The new skin wouldn't be a Spice Girls theme would it? Just curious...

Cheers

Dave

Sure, why not share the workload if you're finding it hard to find niches in your limited time! Dave Power has a pretty good skill set...

I'm more than happy to help- in fact I offered already.
Having said that- no point in applying a skin to the boards until we have an idea what the new skin for the entire site looks like. Just to keep it consistent.
