I agree with lem0n. Stick with the old forums. Kraliks is a nice backup, but as soon as he getsd CC somewhere else I am on to it ;) and post counts do matter to me ;D

Captain obvious strikes again. I would NEVER have guessed lol.

But i did like having 4 red stars and savant. Will savant carry over? Being as its largely irrelevant?

What will gold be used for on this site?

Perhaps what we can do is have multiple themes you can choose from--which is already the case, if you check your profile--and have one of them be identical (or at least very close) to the old-school CC layout. Then everyone would be happy, because they could pick the look they wanted.

If anyone is artistically gifted and wants to choose a premade theme, here are a few options. Let me know if you find a good one. H_P might be making one as well. :)

I personally like how clean-looking this format is.  Being able to choose would be really cool.  Alas my "skills of an artist" are not up to the task.

Ive changed my theme to LOTR but most of the icons dont load in the forums. In this thread alone all the buttons like reply or quote etc... had the classic red X where and image hasnt loaded. Any thoughts? The normal theme works...

Yeah, I noticed that too, lem0n. I was all excited when I found the theme...until I actually saw it. :P

I'll scour the net when I have time and see what else I can find...and try to figure out how I might be able to recreate something like the old CC theme. Hopefully that will become much easier should Kralik be able to convert its phpBB format to the SMF format we have here. Might do all the work for us.

Well, the bad news is that the phpBB2 database will not include any graphics or theme settings, since those are all stored in external files. Unless Conor can send me a copy of the base directory, we're sort of stuck. OTOH, you might be able to get some basic color ideas if the Internet Archive has any old copies of CC.

As much as I'd like to play around with themes, I'm starting to get attached to this simple blue layout...and most importantly it works!

I agree with Pizza. I actually sorta like this appearance and layout, the more I use it. It's not exactly the old CC, but then again... it's not CC. If that makes any sense at all.

I don't think it matters where we are, as long as we're all at the same place.
