I'd like to see the message body and the user that posted the message reversed.
Have the user information on the left side of the screen and the actual messages to the right of those.

Hello Stinger and the rest of you Maulepilots,

After the big chunk of work we did, Andy and I are working slowly away on making the forum look similar to as it was before so that you can navigate within a familiar looking platform and on the squawks, which we will discover by using them.
After that we can look into modification requests on a time available bases.
Thank you all for being a marvelous group

Christine

This version of phpBB allows each individual user to customize their view of the forum. Please play with your personal customization to find a view and sort order you like.
Each modification we install might compromise any of those features. So for now we are working on functionality and getting a look similar to what everyone was used to before.
I know, most people don’t like changes once they are used to a certain way, but use it for a while and you will get used to the differences.
Happy flying

Thanks for the feedback. I like the new forum a lot better, too. There are many more user customization features and it's better protected from spammers. The ability to post images is really nice. I don't know how many Maulers have realized it but there are two ways to post images. You can use the "Add image to post" link on the lower left of the post box and upload a photo from your computer or you can use the Full Editor and Preview button that shows the toolbar and the icon that links to an image that is stored on another server. One of the forum members asked if the forum could store videos. Postimages.org is the website where the forum images are stored. Our account is free with unlimited storage time and amount but only for images up to 25MB. Videos aren't supported. If you try to upload a video, the grayed out choices are unavailable due to their file type. Vimeo and YouTube are still the best ways to include video links.
