Same here. These are not just teething troubles that will work out sooner or later, these are completely homemade problems caused by the fact that Renderosity did not buy a tested, upto-date and fully working existing PHPboard package, but tried to create their own board from scratch in order to make some additional profit by selling it later. Some points: 1. Font size is not resizeable when using the by far most widely used browser. 2. Colors are not customizeable with a simple mouseclick anymore. Instead we have to create our own CSS stylesheets to do so. 3. Pictures are resized to lower resolution, makes it impossible to save threads or tutorials to ones harddrive for later use, and is very inconvenient even for simple reading. 4. Way too much wasted space. Boards width should NOT be hardcoded to 1004. 5. Search function is useless if there is no "sort by date" option. Also very inconvenient to work with. I dont want to have to do extra typing just to additionally specify what time period I want to be searched. Just let me enter a term and show me ALL results SORTED by DATE. Just show me the threads title and who posted it. The old search worked PERFECT untill you messed with it. 6. What good is an attachment option if I cant add attachments ? There are several other things others have pointed out, but those are the "improvements" that disturb me most. Oh, and BTW, it is perfectly possible to ADD SMILIES with a single click. This is the only board where I have to cut and paste them.
