Gotta be swift. Like a ninja. Or just put v3 on. >.<
Nah, I seriously've been wondering that myself. I'm sure it's work-around-able. Gotta be some place else to put that little link, but yeah.
EDIT: Yeah, you can open a blank PM, then click the Private Messages link. That'll do it. OR just... yeah.. come back to v3... >.<

I think it could use a background or something but the colors are pretty cool.

Okie-doke! I've been using The Main Gate style for awhile now, so it was rather easy to temporarily let the V4 problems slide since they weren't right in my face... Bottom line here is, even though I would love them to match perfectly, what works for a website does not necessarily work for forums, so I've done some more tweaking.
As Dashe suggested the style needed more contrast, to which I agreed entirely, so... 1. I darkened the background with a black-to-blue image that really helps I think. 2. The post boxes have been lightened, because it would have been way too dark otherwise. 3. With lighter boxes, I lightened the text up further to full white (it was still slightly blue). 4. The red links just weren't working, so I've gone with black, which works pretty well now.
Other issues that came up were the background around the logo. Turned it to a GIF instead, which gives it rough edges and lower quality, but that's just something we'll have to put up with until IE goes PNG friendly. Also, the messages message up at the top has been restored. The logo can't be centered that way >_< but looks aren't everything.
All in all, I think I'm finally happy with this style. How about the rest of you?

New colors feel right, I still think it's a tad boring though... I mean.. it's blue, and.. well yeah, it's blue. Nice kinda 3Dimensional look to it, but, well... I'm gunna stick with v3. I'll just leave it at that.

The logo at the top doesn't have that border around it anymore, which is really good. My only problem is with the link colours, because now since they are black the text at the top that says this: Mega Man Legends Station Forums :: Site Discussion :: Comments, Questions, Complaints (1 Viewing), doesn't even show up anymore, unless I highlight it. It's not a major thing for me, I can always highlight it if I forget what section of the site I'm in, but it would be more convenient if I knew where I was XD

I used to have Norton - couldn't see the board images no matter what I did. The reason is there are anti-hotlinking settings employed by the server that interfere with Norton's ability to ad-block. I can see the images just fine now, as I uninstalled that horrible, horrible piece of bloatware. (Mainly because the Norton firewall let in a virus it was suppose to block, and Norton AV didn't catch it until it had been infected). I'd suggest getting this combination: Anti-viruses: AVG Free | Anti-VirFirewalls/Ad-Killer: Agnitum Outpost | PeerGuardian 2Browser: Netscape 7.2That's what I use and I rarely get any problems with anything anymore. Plus, most of it is free ('cept Outpost). However, if you can't get rid of Norton for whatever reason (cause the thing won't uninstall because it clings onto your system worse than any virus out there) than you might want to try turning the 'Personal Firewall' off for as long as it'll let you. The 'ad-blocking' feature is something else you might want to try disabling while you're surfing MMLS.
