I do have one question/suggestion or whatever. More of a bug report I suppose. Anyways, I'm using the Winter Assault color scheme. (Yes, its color, not colour :P ) Whenever I reply to a thread though, the Topic review frame displays according to the default color scheme. Just a curious bug I don't recall noticing in other phpBB forums.

It's a .co.uk top level domain, so it's spelled correctly here - we use the U :P :D

Anyway, good catch, I forgot about that part. Most of us just use the Quick Reply box, and so don't notice that part. I'll see what I can do about fixing it :)

OK, I've fixed the colours on the reply box now. I've also fixed the width of it in the WA skin (in Firefox at least - I've got to check IE yet and see if it does its usual job of managing to misunderstand the styling!)

[edit] IE seems to cope OK with it. It's not as perfect as Firefox (IE seems to fit it to the width of the iFrame, not the iFrame minus the width of the vertical scrollbar!) but nothing is lost or hidden, so IE can just do its own stupid thing again.

Now to put the same width-fix into the normal beige version.

Nice work. :) I've got Firefox installed as well, but I still seem to prefer IE for some reason.

Crazy man :D Firefox is superior in almost all ways! Although it does help that I do web design and Firefox has various tools that are very useful for debugging web design or altering it on the fly :)

IE is OK as long as you have GoogleBar or something to popup block, but it still gets far more adware than Firefox (I've been clean for the past year) and it doesn't have the useful extensions like AdBlock Plus (which I only use on big commercial sites, not personal websites or Open Source websites)
