No, we can't even see our own posts. It's weird.

Wicked, yo. I like the look. Gotta get used to everything being in different places though.

I'd like to see a dark blue theme if possible.

looked around for an option to do but no go. I could see em fine in the beta board.
If you hit "Reply", find your post, and then click "Post Details" in the preview window, there's an edit button. Unless that's just a moderator thing; I haven't tried it outside of OT.
its a moderator thing, unfortunately.

I dunno if it's just on my end, but there's a weird lag with seeing others' new posts. I'll see that they just posted, and when I click on the page, the post won't be there for like 10 minutes, even the the thread states they posted.

Not just your end. Note that the posts will appear in the "Review Topic" down below when posting in a thread, even if they aren't visible otherwise.

Yeah, me too. I can see the posts I'm missing when I click Post Reply and and check the topic review...so I guess I have a workaround for the time being.

EDIT: ACK! GANKED!

Weird how I can generally see everyone else's posts but my own. My own forum looks even more pathetically empty than usual! D:

I stuck with the original subsilver, so the new theme doesn't particularly offend me. It's just going to take a little getting used to, finding where to click things that were previously in different spots.

I, for one, am already well used to this setup, as I've been tooling around a PHPBB3 board for several months already. I have full confidence that all the major snarls will be worked out in short enough order and welcome our new PHPBB3 overlords.

Well I'm porbably going to have to mess with this more when I'm at home but things seem different but okay.

Edit: More okay now that I can actually see my own posts

Anyway, I moved all the comic forums into one category. It still displays them all on the front page, but it cuts down on loading time. It's not perfect, but is it a good fix for now, guys?
oh good you noticed it
I was just about to start an angry mob and drag everyone off to phpbb's site to burn it down for yet another shitty release of their poor forum script...

Um, I still cannot see my own posts, and now I cannot see the dropdown allowing me to quickly jump from forum to forum.

If I can't see my own posts, then I can't be held at fault for anything I post because I can't even be aware that I posted it.

Advantage: me.

Does the profile section of the posts seem a little wide to everyone, or is it just me?

Ugh.. now even I don't like this current theme. You know me and how big stuff is.

Anyway, try this logo mockup for size.
