David -

The changes look great! I feel like I'm back at the old board.

One suggestion, the "new topic" and "post reply" icons stick out like sore thumbs on a thread viewing page.

Thanks again for everything!

Believe me, all of these are going to get changed—it’s just going to take me time to do them after I finish tweaking out a few other things with the text.

The current theme uses 68 images, 97 template .html files, one .css file (which was basically what I was working on tonight—it tells the .html files how they should look), and a few config files. The images will probably end up happening last, after I move and add some of the features I want to add...and fix a thing or two.

Great choice of colors! These earthy tones are very easy on the eyes.

Nice work Mordeth.

Henry,

Yes we certainly do! David has donated so much time to getting us up and running TWICE! This second time while he was attending a computer exposition across the continent. I can't thank him enough for all he's done. I couldn't have done it without him. (I couldn't have done it without all of you either! ;) )

Regards,
John

Everyone (even though I am quoting Don),

Thank you all for your expressed appreciation! I’m going to owe you all cards again (like we did for Christmas) on the next major board holiday (I’ll have to consult John on this one—would Squirrel Appreciation Day apply? ;))

Somehow, I have the feeling that I will be doing many more cards than the 58 made for The Victrola Talking Machine Forum less than a month ago.

But it’s back to work in the TMF Graphics Design workshop...

Thanks again, everyone!

MordEth,

Can I trade in my acorns for wax cylinders on Squirrel Appreciation Day? :D

You have done a tremendous job in revamping the board! It looks great and the color scheme is very easy on the eyes.
