Glad to see this 8-)

Can I suggest some themes?
Easter, Halloween, Board birthday?

And maybe even (Never forgive, Never forget) headers for sept 9/11 and sept 7/11 (UK), WW1 and WW2? I don't know how you/others would feel about those ones...

For board birthday what would you suggest and where? Not sure about the last ones, specific examples of what you'd want could help. I know what you are referring too, but not sure what to do in those instances.

For board birthday I think maybe a simple header background with presents/gifts? Maybe some party poppers :lol: on forum_bg corners? Apologies, haven't really thought too deeply about it. :oops:

As for the others (911/711), maybe a nice star lit sky site background, with some candles scattered around? Poppies for WW1/WW2?

All just suggestions of course. No worries if you aren't fussed about implementing them. :)

Would be cool if it would be possible to create own sets in the ACP. Just create a new one, upload an image and enable.
