Unfortunately the skin that we utilized does not work with the phpbb software. There's no way around it. If you happen to find a skin that works for the new phpBB that you like better, let us know and we'll take a look.

I happen to like the new skin myself; certainly better than having use Stylish on Nabisco's ages old skin.

I'm also not crazy about the new layout but having some phpbb experience I know that once they release new versions its very hard to get support on older versions and also some of the back end security features are not there on the older forum so although I agree that the old forum was completely headache free vs this one the decision had to be made by Dave and Josh to upgrade. In their defense they waited as long as possible.
