Some more 'minor' changes.

[griffin]

The transformation has begun, but it is far from over.
Phase 2 begins later today...

But some notes on what has been done so far.
- New board header logo (taken from the Ozformers T-shirt I did up for BotCon last year - the lettering is in greyscale until I can verify that it won't be a trademark infringment in colour, or can get permission to use it in colour) I will aslo shrink it down a little more, for those who have a lower resolution setting to their monitor.
- New background image (same Gen1 Autobot toybox themed grid pattern, but a lot lighter shades)
- Main table icons (coloured Autobot symbol for 'new posts', grey Autobot symbol for 'no new posts').
- Renamed the 2 existing sections of the board, and added 2 new sections. The four sections are now:
- - - News (just news items, including Sightings and Hasbro Q&A, as their contents count as news)
- - - Info and Activities (all other TFs sections)
- - - Ozformers Club Members section (The relaunch of the Ozformers Club that began in 1996, and will incorporate the 'Deluxe Members' concept - Club Membership details will be posted here soon)
- - - Non-TFs section (all other toys and non-toys - see *** below)
- Shuffled existing board sub-sections into the new section categories (above), and generated several new sub-sections.
- Moved active topics from the 'Guest House' section into the Hasbro Toys section, and deleted the 'Guest House'.

***The Non-TFs section.
This new section has two purposes. One is to open up the board a little more to non-members, without having a separate section being wasted on the odd guest posting.
The other purpose will be discussed either tonight or tomorrow, when phase 2 is completed.

So despite the recent server issues, let me know if anyone has any problems with the board after tonights changes.
Suggestions, comments and constructive criticism is welcome, but be aware that there are still a lot more changes coming this weekend. I have two whole days on my hands (25th/26th), and the 'transformation' task schedule will fill up most of that time.

I have a 1600 x 1200 and it's taking up 1/3 of my screen

Same with me Tober, gave me a worry first time I saw it. I thought my monitor was wonking out.

New changes are always exciting.

Ah... along with the black background I honestly thought that the board was in mourning or something. I'd recommend losing the black as it clashes with the rest of the board's colours.

too many new sections for my liking

Why does Lego get its own section?

Are there Hasbro orientated sections to entice them to be nice to us?

Colours are a bit...different
