I have been using this for a while and the one thing that bugs me is having to scroll down the page to get the latest post. What do you guys think? Do you think we should change this so that the most recent reply is at the top and then going downwards but keep the original poster above the top section. If you go to options at the top of this thread and go to Linear + you will see what I mean about the separation...we could then have the most recent posts after the original. Thoughts?

thats a good idea, especially on a mobile theme that makes sense. i mean you want to browse the forums quickly on the go so it would help to get you up to date if it was like you said.

=)

id say - do it! or add an option.

Just a heads up, the skin was developed by request of the staff for Windows Mobile devices. Frank sent me a phone to develop on and I did just that, skin should work flawlessly on Pocket IE.

But now it seems everyone wants an iPhone version, so I'm doing just that, a specific version just for that (more apple style). So be on the look out for that and enjoy the skin. Should work quite nicely on edge, and 3g.

would be nicer if the logo was used... but still cool nonetheless
Yea, +1 for the logo icon, but this is great! Good work (Y)

We had it on there for a while, but it didn't scale right and would look all ugly and jaggy. It may be added later but felt it didn't add value to what we already had and didn't want to hold up the works just for that.

I think its FANTASTIC, personally. Looks great on my iPhone.

Thank you.

    • UK to ban under-16s from social media following a six-week trial with teenagers

      By Skyfrog · Posted

      Age 16, old enough to get a full-time job, your own bank account, a passport, get married, even join the military and go to war. But talking to your friends on the internet? Oh hell no!

      I remember when all games had demos; it was a normal thing, not a limited time promotion.
    • Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update

      Forza Horizon 6 gets big bug-fixing and balancing update by Taras Buria Today, Playground Games released a big Forza Horizon 6 update with a long list of fixes, patches, and balancing tweaks that the studio promised earlier. Version 375.327 is now available on Steam, Microsoft Store, and Xbox, offering users improvements for AI, audio, design, performance, road discovery, upgrades, visuals, online play, and more. Some of the most notable changes in the Series 2 update include rebalanced drivatars, particularly their difficulty and race start behavior. As such, the game should be more balanced on higher difficulty levels, and AI cars should not shoot out when the race starts as if they have rocket boosters. Speaking of difficulty, developers nerfed Drag Tires physics for a more expected and realistic behavior. They are no longer the go-to option for record-breaking times in road racing, and all leaderboard entries with drag tires will be removed. Completionists will also be glad to get a new feature that lets you see road discovery percentage in each region, which should make discovering all roads easier while keeping it quite challenging and interesting (I spent quite a long time finding the last road). Festival Playlist is also getting some much-needed fixes, including patches for bugs that allowed completing Seasonal Jobs ahead of time or where weekly challenges would not unlock for some players. Developers will retroactively give reward points to all who could not complete all challenges due to these bugs. Other changes include changes to Horizon Play progression so that it is easier to reach Level 100, audio improvements on lower-spec devices, fixes for visual glitches, including pixelated smoke, and more. Developers also addressed the currently non-working Eliminator, an online mode gamers used to farm credits with a Hummer EV exploit. Playground Games plans to re-enable it soon. As a gesture of goodwill, players will get a free McLaren Sabre. Those who used the exploit will not be banned, but developers plan to roll back credits to a maximum of 10M for all who farmed credits using the exploit. You can find the complete changelog for the latest Forza Horizon 6 update here.
