Re: Removal of subsilver2 in 3.1

Steve, your site doesn't look outdated, it looks like it's trying to preserve the legacy of the World Wide Web. :) Yes, my comment is harsh, but sometimes you have to be a little rude to get the point across. Ugly things are ugly. I'm talking strictly about looks, and in web design, "outdated l...

Re: Removal of subsilver2 in 3.1

People are threatened more by software that falls a decade behind than by moving to modern interfaces. The look of subsilver2 does not belong in the modern forum landscape. It's embarrassing to look at, let alone include as a sanctioned part of any package in 2012.

Re: Simplify footer notice in prosilver

Placing the copyright/brand in the footer of distributed software is not uncommon. In fact, many software companies require their clients to pay an extra fee to legally be allowed to remove it. Many software companies do a lot of stupid things--that doesn't make it a good business practice or that ...
