Thanks for the feedback.

Even tho it's a new template, I tried to make it look somewhat like the last one .. mainly cuz I liked the way the last one looked.

The biggest changes with this one .. cosmetically speaking .. are that I replaced the text+icons with buttons. The little bit of silver (buttons) on lots of black seems to work.

I also changed the style of the board names to remove the bold and make them slightly brighter .. so they stand out.

I'm getting pretty good with CSS.

Oh yeah, and then there's the tabs, which the old template did not support.

But too much change all at once can be off-putting, so I think here's where we'll stay .. at least for a while.

I also like the graphic-background this template uses in the Post/Reply box.
