Zeta seems like a upgrade for sure, but I would to see some things worked on before a switch.

I noticed LOLWTF a few minutes ago. Pretty cool.
Does that mean the arcade can come back? :P
One of these days I'll get a sig I'm really proud of.

We will go back to the old skin. However I may be changing some minor stuff. DJ Omnimaga makes sure to shun IE6 users first tho
rivereye was scared till he saw the 6, he has IE7 :p

Well last year I remember IF staff saying that Zetaboards would only be IE7, Opera and Firefox compatible. It will be compatible with others, but not IE6, because of the limited CSS capabilities. At least IE7 CSS comaptibility isn't that bad so if something is different in it it will prbly be something so minor that no one will notice

Honestly, I don't see a big difference between the two, other than the different skin, different smileys, and a few GUI tweaks here and there. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the main differences are internal... so I guess I'll have to wait a bit to find them out. Oh, and if there is a way to view the old omnimaga topics and forums as an archive, that would be uber-awesome.

One more thing: I miss the spam subforum :P .

yeah the differences are mostly in the moderation features and the admin cp.

Now if I view a list of 100 topics I can lock the entire list at once like on IPB 2.x , and I can even select by topic status (closed, pinned, non pinned, etc). I don't need to go to the mod cp all the time if i need to moderate multiple topics at once.

IE6 incompatabilities... Delnar: Your avatar isn't resized on my end, and it kills the layout.

I am forced to use IE6 at school.

I just downloaded Firefox to the computers I use at school. And then a bunch of random add-ons ^.^
One of these days I'll get a sig I'm really proud of.

yeah but some school comps wont allow installing new stuff on them. As for portable softwares (installed on a jumpdrive)... well some school computers doesn't even have USB ports because they're too old.

I just check on the forums when I get home.  But ya, I think there should be a bit more flexibility in schools about what you can have.  I guess there just might be complications :(

maybe schools should all use Opera or FF  ^^

Test Skin looks pretty nice, large text on the main page seems a bit glitchy when you hover over it though. Some of the orange and blue headings (like the one for fast reply) could be chandged out to match skin though. Overall looks very nice though. :)
