After being informed (tnx Roy!) that nobody can reply on my post in the announcement area, here we go again ... :)

Head on over to the trial of the new forum, play around a bit (logins are the same as here), and let me know what you think ... especially on the different color schemes/layouts ... I was thinking about using one of the ones installed as basis for a slight overhaul of this forum ;)

You may also post there, but the posts will definitely go away when I restart the forum ;)

*I* also informed you, Garry, but just with a couple hours of delay. :)

My opinion:
I don't have certain preferences about a forum, it needs to work and then I'm happy.
Apart from that, I like the "speed" and "odyssey" color schemes.

Well, just moved everything over ... haven't updated the gfx yet, but the forum as such is active ...
Apart from the new features of the phpBB3 release, I've also added a YouTube-code that allows you to link youtube-videos directly into your posts ... just use the [youtube] code, followed by the URL and the [/youtube] closing code, which should result in the video being directly viewable in the page ...

Also, if anybody has any suggestions as to additional features you've seen somewhere else, or other styles, let me know and I'll see what I can do ...

You mean instead of going to the full fledged reply editor you get by pressing either the "Quote" button of a post or "Reply" button of the thread? I'll have a look and see if there's a Mod available ...

Here's the solution of the little quiz ...

1st gen SS: one of the regulars at Bitburg, can't remember his name, but it's a very nicely restored (and quick!) beige-and-brown car ...
2nd Z28: Glen Ward's red (some say pink) car - anybody ever hear anything from him since he went back to the States?
3rd Gen Firebird T/A GTA: another Bitburg regular, Christian Kirschbaum (guy with the tow truck) ...
