Can we please get a face lift for this message board? Moderators please look at the cool graphics at the competing BMW web sites. This message board is looking very tired.

I actually like it how it is. But there is a new software we will somewhen get.
Lomag is thinking about a major change when the F10 is released in the US.
Not just the look, also the structure will be changed...

+1, a lot of other forums are too complicated and cluttered...

Ditto on leaving it the same... I'm very frustrated with other forums and web pages changing the lay out every 3-6 months because of ADHD moderators and users that have the maturity and the attention span of a Redbull hopped up Twitchy Emo Gamer....

Change for the sake of change is just stupid. If it's not broke and gets the job done leave it alone.

I'd have to agree with the others n this one Iceman, I like the undisturbed nature of this forum. There's no fluff at all - only substance (albeit silly sometimes). I vote for keeping pretty much the same as well.

We'll definately try, but when the F10 launches in the US we have to make some changes.
And for the software, the older the software you use is, the more problems with spam bots you have.

We'll see.
So far, Lomag has done an outstanding job. He never just updated the forums software because there is an update available. And changes in the forums structure were allways done when needed and it has never been a total redesign.
