I see that the sub-forums for T3 and I7 are now gone. I guess if they get busy, we could always add them back, or have two boards for each (even without a sub-category).

I'm seeing something quirky with italics though. Like this -- anybody else see formatting codes, instead of italic text? Looks like maybe a bug in this version of the phpBB beta to me.

When I initially posted my question to you on the Hugo section, I got the same reaction on the italics, so I removed it. After replying to you now, the italics are working again. Weird.

It shows up right in the quoted section, but not in the text I originally typed.

It looks like both the bold and italics work right if you highlight the text first then click on the Bold and Italics buttons on the reply screen. Otherwise, if you just type in the tags manually, the tags don't get parsed correctly.

Still weird, but at least there's a workaround. ;)

Interesting. I'll try that.

Edit: Nope. Still didn't work.

Little italics test.

Darn. No joy. Italics don't seem to be my friend here.

I can't figure out *why* it's trying to put in markup code. What's with the colon and the number? What does it really add to the tag, anyway? It's weird.

Italics

Strangely enough, when I previewed this post, the italics bit above was actualy in italics, but when I submitted it, it shows up with the weird coding instead.

Could this be a browser issue? I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.1 and this bit of italics and boldness worked.

I'm using Firefox 1.0.5.6 and I'm betting this word here - italics - doesn't display properly.
