It appears to me that, since the forum upgrade, there are a number of places where BBCode has stopped working. By BBCode, I mean the tags in square brackets that allow you to embed an image or link in a post, plus perform formatting tasks (eg: Bold, Italic), and the like.
Anyhow, if you look at my signature at the bottom of this post, it looks something like this:
However, it should look like this:
However, when I edit my signature and click "preview", it displays properly.
You can also see a similar thing if you hover your mouse over "The Rover P5 Club forum" in the grey area above, directly under "Home" in the top menu. When you do that, a small menu will drop down, and you can see that the first entry has a color tag in it that we should not be able to see.
While I am nit-picking, the "f" in "forum" should be capitalized...
Anyhow, this is not a big deal, but I have seen this same issue crop up with others' signatures. In the end, I imagine that some things will have to be changed for the upgraded forum (like removing the color tag from the menu item above), while other things, like the signature display problem, can likely be fixed by changing a setting somewhere.
Thought I would mention it,

PS: Am I missing something, or is there no preview button in the compose window?
