Firstly, it kind of has been around for awhile, but there is a custom theme for the forums! The original Prosilver theme is still available from the user control panel, under board preferences if you would prefer to use it.
Also there are new animated smilies! I accidentally deleted the original few I had made a while ago and I used that as an excuse to redo them all and finish off the set.
And Finally, I managed to get the points system working! If you look towards the top forum navigation bar(where the login/logout is located) you should be able to see the Spiral Rocks link which will take you to the currency panel, the currency of course being spiral rocks. Information on the Spiral Rocks can be found here: viewtopic.php?f=16&t=107
