OK, first things first - Log out of VR, and then back in to get the full effect. Second, If you don't like the blue, edit your profile, you can pick a colour in there. Only Green and Purple at the moment, but more in the next few days.
Also, there is a funky new member map - add yourself onto it if you want.
Member biography's on your profile have been improved - since people put loads of stuff in them, I thought it would be good to make it show up higher n the page.
If your biography is missing - let me know, and I can put it backYou now only get notification emails once per thread (until you read it)
The threads showing up as unread bug should be gone, as should the weird characters showing up instead of apostrophes etc (only on new posts, old ones will still have them there unfortunately
)
New smileys - just a bit nicer really.
I can't really think of much more - post here if you have any questions!
