I'm having problems with the Geeks To Go (beta) skin.

For some reason when viewing the forums with this skin selected, it's missing all the fancy artwork, no borders or anything. Looks just like a plain index....

Works fine when using the Geeks To Go (classic) skin.

Not sure if this is an issues your end, or if it's been spoted already.

Close the browser, run ATF Cleaner then reopen the browser and try again.

I'm going to go out on a bit of a limb here, and say it's working as intended. The beta skin is quite different from the classic skin. It's much cleaner and lighter. The idea was to focus the attention on the content, not the forum skin. Some people like it, others clearly prefer the classic skin. For now they are both available. When version 3.0 of our forum software is released in a couple of months, we'll have to design a new skin from scratch, and we haven't yet decided what that will look like.

You mean like the classic skin? Maybe then just leave it as it is... :)

*Troy doesn't like the beta skin... :)

I like the classic as well. But the beta is ok, I think if it had borders like the classic it would look nicer.
