So we got shut down on Proboards. Serves me right for not reading the TOS :P I think this place ought to stay up just fine, though – it's hosted in Russia and has an explicit "Erotica" category. Thanks to Mewtwolover for the tip.

Hope you enjoy your stay!

Wonderful, hopefully I can have a bit more fun here than on Proboards, considering that that place was closed down upon my first visit. =P

As I said on the Google Documents (under Norma' Jean), I'm not somebody content to take part in talking about this too much, but more of an admirer.
So. I'll admire this forum avidly, now that I have an account.

I actually can't change the forum logo directly, but I could probably get to it with a bit of Javascript if the image were hosted somewhere else. If someone wants to take a crack at it, I'm happy to replace it :)

If you are absolutely sure you can change it then I could take a *whack* at it. I would need some suggestions as to what would be good for the forum. I figure some sort of imagery should be used, even if it is only dealing with type. For example where I do something interesting with the letters in the name of the forum to reflect the forum itself. Or I could do something with an image and type, sort of how inkbunny has it. What do you guys think? Maybe I should do a poll.

This may be related to the banner, but I've also noticed that the board styles don't want to change. There is a good sized list available on the profile page, which has a lot of the more common free themes listed, but it stays on this theme regardless.

Since the theme controls the banner image on phpbb forums, my guess is that the two are related. If I had to guess, I'd think that your board has references to a bunch of themes that haven't been properly installed/cached with phpbb. You may want to google how to install new themes or refresh your imageset.

If you have to pick just one theme, may i ask that you try out Jenova: http://www.myforum.ro/images/template/32-jenova.jpg
It is a very sleek and clean look, and MyForum.ro advertises it, so it should work if you can get it set properly.

Also, I don't know if you have direct file access, such as FTP, but if you do, one option is to replace the current banner file with a new one.

Best of luck! Phpbb can be a pain in the side! X3

EDIT: Looking around, I found this:
"Ends up the "Override User Style" option in the ACP was checked,
and that caused the option to be removed (to switch styles)"

It was posted on a board with similar issues, so maybe check the admin control panel for that option and try toggling it. probably a good idea to refresh the imagesets after you switch this option on/off.

What can you do...?

Well, if it's the case that this forum layout is at all similar to [url=http://myfastforum.org]MyFastForum.org[/url], and it seems exactly the same as MyFastForum.org, then I could probably help out with some of the phpBB.

I've set up another forum on myforum.ro as a test forum. Ideally, if one wants change here, I could test it out there first, and we'll be warned if it messes up the template a bit.
But.. first would like to know where you selected the function for simply changing the language of everything to English, Piou? Heh. I'm assuming that's what you did. I'd like to be able to do the same on the test forum to be able to compare to the layout I'm used to. Regrettably, I can't speak Romanian.

On another forum I'm a member of, on MFF, we prevent users from manually switching their forum style from the admin-selected one because there are small changes made to the layout every now and again; keeping users all using the same layout means that there won't be any slight errors in some that the admins don't see.
