I haven't given up on recovering the lost threads, although finding old threads which were updated after this backup and before the hack... yeah, probably not gonna happen. I don't have time at the moment to figure out which posts need to be exported from the old db and imported here, and to ensure they go to the right threads, but I will work on that when I can.
On themes: We'll stick with just the one, I sincerely hope. However, if some portion of it needs to be darker, it's just a css change and viola!
I'm asking everyone to give it a week as-is, and then I'll put up numerous polls about darkening it , removing the sidebar, reducing the profile area (left of each post), stuff like that.
Please note any request like that at
viewtopic.php?f=59&t=5676 or
viewtopic.php?f=59&t=5675 , so I don't miss it when I make the polls.
