Forum Update

Hey kids, I've just updated the forum software.

It's a bit of a jump from v3.0.11 PL1 to v3.2.1. Much of it was a manual update, so there may be a few things missing, just let me know if there are. I've kept a backup of the old site on the server.

I dragged all the images across, so they should still work. Also kept the folder structure names the same, so links will still work.

If anyone fancies themselves as a phpbb template designer, let me know. Even if you're handy with photoshop, I want to 'Mitsubishi FTO' the template up, such as the header & post icons.

In the mean time, I'm going to test the new authentication stuff to see if I can open the registration doors without dodgy Russians pouring in again.

FYI, the search function will be a little useless at the moment, the search index is rebuilding... which on a board this size can take hours.

Don't worry, nobody uses it anyway :cheeky:

Looks alright though (asides from needing the FTO-theme-ness). It's useful that the actual sub-board shows up now.

Here's the banner logo. Anyone fancy having a crack at changing "My Invision" to the club logo?

And next question, does anyone still use Tapatalk? Site seems to have built in mobility.

Which would be super, cause Tapatalk can gargle a solid mouthful of my dick jam

Couldn't really thicken the lines up because it becomes all fragmented pixels once it gets that small (or I am a noob)

Don't look a gift logo in the mouth

That's because you're using photoshop and not illustrator beej. Need those vectors to be able to scale. :lol:

Try these.

Can't go any thicker on the outline or the lights at the front get mushed together.

Second one might get cut off but give it a try.

Got the font, that was a pain in the ass lol. Had to find it, upload it & define it.

Code: Select all

@font-face {
    font-family: Sevil_Lite;
    src: url(http://www.ftoaustralia.com/v3/styles/MyInvision/theme/Sevil_Lite.ttf);
}

.site-description h1 {
	font-family: Sevil_Lite;
	font-weight: bold;
        font-size: 2.5em
	margin-right: 0;
        color: red;
}
