On This Episode: Douglas Bell (Fountain of Apples) and David Lewis (Highway of Life)

Following a few weeks off for Douglas to go back to school and David to move house, we are back with another phpBB Weekly–and this time, David is leading off the show. Still, we have a great episode–despite an unexpected technical glitch that happened at the end of the show.

phpBB3 Release Candidate 5 has been released, and Acyd Burn has noted that it will hopefully be the last one before Olympus goes gold. But then, looking at the bug tracker, is there a chance that there will be another RC forthcoming?
This week, the MOD team asked for feedback on the new MOD Database. David summarizes a number of the comments that have been made thus far, and Douglas also offers some of his opinions.

The MOD of the Week is Welcome PM on First Login for phpBB3 by DualFusion, and the Style of the Week is Milky Way for phpBB3 by Mighty Gorgon. Plus, Handyman/GroovePlugs calls in to tell us about his Photo Gallery MOD for phpBB3.
If you have a MOD or Style that you’d like us to feature on a future episode, bookmark it on del.icio.us with the tag phpbbwmod or phpbbwstyle.

Finally, David mentions Skitch, a Mac-only application that he has been using to take screenshots and give MOD support with. Douglas wrote a review of Skitch which describes the program in more detail.
