This is not an error ! This is due to the fact that you have modified the templates of the chatbox in your forum and now that you have upgrade there are not up-to-date, you have to revert them and apply the changes again.

I will certainly figure it out but honestly this is not my top priority as Opera is less used than other browsers but I will figure out for the next version don't worry.

[pedroenf]

Yes i know that Opera is a less used browser and not your top priority. Just want to help you if, of course, the "bug" is a small one.

I knew Mac was really a rootkit!

lol

It's saying:

mgc_cb_evo_pm.gif.bd.ren.bd.ren.bd.ren - whatever that happens to be.

[theOZer]

I've upgraded to V0.5.0 and still have 2 glitches:

1) Team Channel icon no longer blinks when there's a new message from another team channel member.

2) Team Channel doesn't use a member's chatbox preferences; uses the chatbox default font, font size, color.

If these 2 issues have already been addressed and/or resolved I missed them in the earlier posts. Sorry.
