    Yea if you switch to xenForo it might help :) You could use a revamp or something to help.

    Yeah I hope we will move to XF eventually, but it will need to have certain things either as part of the core or available as add-ons before we can move really

    Thanks :)

    I've got an XF test site set up so I can see what I can do style wise to make the colours similar to what we have (that way it won't seem so much of a change to our users) and tbh it's great. I posted some screenshots in the show us your XF thread on xenforo.com

    Yeah it seems fairly easy, I need to really brush up on my php and css (it's my aim for this year) so I can see what I can do design wise that's a little different

    If you can't find it let me know as I'm sure I have them on my photobucket somewhere
