All we need is sickly green and it'll be Forumplanet once again, just like the old days.  ;D

I am okay with this so far (used to frequent a forum with the same color scheme, this feels homely haha), I wasn't prepared for the different colors though.

Good luck with the rest of the upgrading procedure, Jorge!
Keep the spiffing up!

I was curious if all the white was just temporary. Guess this answers my questions. I also noticed the LoS book is also used in the new look. Personally I'd have used CV64/LoD's Necronomicon. It's far more sinister, taboo and maddening.

Here are some things that we got with the new software update, and what we lost:

We got:
Multiple language Interface!  Now you can use the forum in Chinese, English, Japanese, Hebrew, Finnish, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, and Swedish.
There's supposedly more security now and there are some more admin options that I can use to keep the riffraff out.
As you can see, the interface is different (though I had to stay up late to code up a new theme since 1.1.14 themes don't seem to be compatible with 2.0)
The ability to use newer plugins and mods, which I will be experimenting with.  Things like games and the like, are probably gonna be possible now.

We lost:
-Member Awards (at least for now, until the Mod I was using comes up with a 2.0 version)
-AJAX Quick Reply (so now the page won't auto-refresh when you use quick reply; no big deal)
-Some AntiSpam Mods (will have to see what I can do about that)
-the eNotify Notifications (which most of us disliked and I'm glad it got uninstalled).
-the Spoiler Tag.  I'm looking into finding a replacement mod that'll implement this again.
