They're finally up but there may be some quirks, as always.

If you can't log in, go to your browser's options and delete cookies. If you have firefox, you can find tharshaddin.com on the list of cookies and just delete the ones for thar. In IE you need to delete them all.

Let me know about any other problems.

OMG, I see "Switch Users". How do I set that up? I assume there are cookies involved.

There are no cookie changes involved in using linked accounts, the mod tweaks your account to store the passwords for accounts you want linked.

It's in your control panel, the last option, edit linked accounts.

I looked everywhere and didn't see that at all. I'm silly. Thanks. It's awesome!

i really like the new layout. Looks classy or as i said the other day, it looks hott in all its red glory. I really like the user switching function and the ability to save drafts and stuff. That would come in handy. Ooo and bookmarks ^_^ niiiiiice! What's the Usergroups tab in the User Control Panel for?

The compliments make the hours of coding worthwhile. It's still not finished but there's not much left. Next comes the rest of the site.

It took a little bit of getting used to, but i'm liking the new setup as well. Nice work.

There's a new update to phpbb3 that I'm going to install.

As we are running their technically "unstable" test version, there is always the chance some things will break.

Edit: and apparently the account link mod isn't working properly with RC8. You can still link and switch accounts in your profile, but until this gets sorted out it won't be on the index page.

Can we please do custom user titles? As in the title beneath the avatar. Seems there's only Outsider, Citizen or staff available.
I'm coming for you...

I don't think I'll install any more mods until phpbb3 goes gold. The entire user profiles system here will need some customization like we used to have.

I adore this red lay-out, it's just awesome.

There is one 'bug' I just discovered though. I noticed that when you quote somehow you don't get to see who you quoted. The "Mister X wrote:" title uses the same red colour as the background of quotes, which makes it impossible to see. It would be great if you could change it to light red or black or so.

Example:

I think they layout is awesome. Two or my three favorite colors. The only question I have, and this is more of a user error I am sure, is how can I set up my avatar? It keeps giving me an error.
