The current BBS style

Welcome to another round of "I hate phpBB."

phpBB has a default style. If you are logged in, you probably see the "Banzai Bug Support Forum" shit. That's the modified default style called subSilver.

If you log out, you see the classic Jolt Country theme, which looks like a Playstation II up top.

Even though I fucking told phpBB to make the Playstation theme be default... it only does this if you are unregistered, after which it picks the subSilver (Banzai Bug) style as your default one.

...

... I don't get it either.

Anyway, one thing I wanted to offer registered people was the ability to use a different skin for this BBS. This has probably failed horribly. If you want to go back to the Playstation-styled theme, just click on "Profile" and then chose "RPG ... 2v2" or something. It's the one that isn't "AcidTech" or "subSilver." That will put things back.

And if you are unregistered, well, everything should look the same.

As soon as I find a phpBB 3 theme I like we can try upgrading. phpBB2 has sort of soured me on life itself at this point. I actually feel less like living, using it.

Please note! Picking the "AcidBloodTech" skin will cause you to no longer be able to log the fuck in. Even though I eliminated the skin from the site, it still shows up as a fucking option to this piece of shit software.

So I shall undo everything this thread attempted to do, and send everyone back to the PS2 theme.

Oh, and I locked myself out of the admin account for a half hour (a HALF FUCKING HOUR) and honestly, if anyone finds me fucking software that will flawlessly take a phpBB database and import it, I'd switch in a motherfucking second. I hate phpBB more than anything else in the world, and the thought of "upgrading" to version 3 of their shit makes me want to kill myself.

Meaning that, even with two months left, phpBB is still unbearable.
