Wow.  Nice forum!  If you don't mind my asking, how long did it take you to set that up?

I'm still working on a few tweaks, but I'd say it took a few days. One night to get it mostly up... several more days of tweaking to get things closer to just where I wanted them.

I'm still working on a few things like moving the moderator listings from the front page to the top of the actual topic page. I want to keep the front page clean and simple.

I'm also having a few CSS issues with extra pixel spacing around my spacers. In general my code was a bit hackish and not separated out like it should have been for the CSS, and I hacked some of the main php files a bit rather than trying to force everything into CSS, so it doesn't really work as a theme per se.

But I can always worry about that later. My main point was just to get it up and running. smile

Thanks for the good words! big_smile

A very nice job. Consistent well applied colours, fonts and style elements, and a nice fast board. I even like your favicon too.

Dark colour themed boards usually don't work well (for me), but this one does.

HOWEVER it wasn't a good idea though to stick a big 220k, 700x1100 pixel PNG image though in your posting here on punBB... a smaller image would have done the job, if you needed to post an image at all.

And BTW: why does no-one apparently know anymore how to do image compression? That 220k image you posted took me just 1 second to knock down to a 50k GIF or a 52k PNG, with no visible decline in quality. Why waste valuable electrons and bandwidth smile

Thanks for the critique sirena. smile I'll see what I can do. wink

It's a little rough around the edges, but I'm still working on it. smile

I ran into this same problem. I fixed it by changing the query in admin_ranks.php from

// Make sure there isn't already a rank with the same min_posts value
        $result = $db->query('SELECT 1 FROM '.$db->prefix.'ranks WHERE id!='.$id.' && min_posts='.$min_posts) or error('Unable to fetch rank info', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

to

// Make sure there isn't already a rank with the same min_posts value
        $result = $db->query('SELECT 1 FROM '.$db->prefix.'ranks WHERE id!='.$id.' and min_posts='.$min_posts) or error('Unable to fetch rank info', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

as SQL was erroring on &&, being an improper operator.
