Going to keep this thread for any noteworthy updates.
While I've been keeping the forum updated with any of the new versions that are released from phpBB (software that runs this forum), a lot of the third party add-ons (i.e. the board styles etc) are not maintained anymore which has causes some issues. I noticed when GearĂ³id created the Games forum that the breadcrumbs navigation wasn't being generated correctly and this was due to the fact we are using a style which was created for an older version of phpBB. Luckily with a bit of Google-ing I found the creator of this style did an update which fixed the bug, saving me the hassle of manually fixing it. I also took this opportunity to change the image on the top so that it doesn't take up as much real estate when viewed on a widescreen but maybe not my best work on Photoshop.
TL;DR Messages boards are dying, updates are going to break things and my Photoshop skills aren't as good as they used to be.
Also if you spot any bugs or issues please let me know and I'll have look into it when I'm free.
