Thanks to all for the ideas and feedback.

The look and feel will be very similar, just slightly more contemporary, mainly as a result of using a CSS framework to make everything work well on mobile. The color scheme and general layout will remain the same. All URLs will be the same, and no one will have to register again or anything like that.
I think there is something to be said for having a sort of “dated” approach on a forum filled with people who do things like install DOS outliners in 2020. :-D

Hopefully it will be an improvement while remaining in the original spirit. I have a lot of ideas that should be more feasible once the code is modernized. For example, I’d love to be able to move toward a community curated catalog of all the software we discuss so people can browse by platform, features, etc. And then it would be great to also show the relevant forum discussions for each application…
