And for some reason, I was getting a slash before any interverted commas, which is kinda weird. (Tests to see if it's still happening... No, some wonderful person has fixed it :) )

Those happened becuase of the converting from the old DB to the new.  (You missed one in your sig btw.)

There are a few different skins you can pick. Go to your profile. Click on Look and layout preferences on the left. You will see this line Current Theme: Forum or Board Default (change) click change. Here you can look at the few other themes that are available. If you are looking for larger icons the Classic YaBB SE Theme theme might be best for you.

Good luck,

Oooh, I've changed to the Classic YaBB SE (and was the 15th person to do so :) ), and it's much nicer. Highly recommended!

Neko: I found the thread explaining the presence of the slashes. Thanks!

I miss that option as well but I find 'Show unread posts since last visit.'  does about the same thing.
Not for me! When I log in after one day, I see lots of new posts, but the function "Show unread posts since last visit" shows only one thread, more like "Show unread posts since your login 10 seconds ago" ... not as expected.

The exactly same thing is happening to me, the link doesn't seem to function the way it should. I clicked there now, and I haven't checked on the forums for days, and only one thread was shown. I'm feeling a little lost to catch the latest discussions on this forum. The looks doesn't affect me so much, but this problem is really annoying.

There is a more PS-looking theme available now. To change the look of the forum, click on the "Profile" button by the top of the boards, click on "Look and Layout Preferences," then under "Current Theme:" click on the (change) link. It'll be the last one.

Sorry that any updates from me are taking so long. I'll be honest, there are times lately where I just get so sick of working on anything PS related, let alone any other projects I have going on, that I just drop everything for days to "clear my head", so to speak. Sometimes I get a so called "designer's block", sometimes real-life things distract me. But I'm keeping at it when I get motivated. I'm sure that's the same thing that PS devs have to deal with once in a while. I have gone through several layouts and graphic styles so far, which I didn't show anyone except myself but ended up hating most of them and starting from scratch again. I'm sure I'll settle on something soon enough. :)

Keep your fingers crossed! ;)
