Issues with Winter Snowstorm Theme

[mrrosencrantz]

Hello everyone!

So I started using the theme Winter Snowstorm and I really like it -- but I foresee a problem.  It doesn't show on the main boards when a new, unread thread or post has been made so I can't easily know when a post has been made.  I was wondering if there's any way to add a code for Read/Unread posts.  I imagine it would go in the Board List section of the code, which is as follows:


<style>
   .boardurl a, .boardurl a:visited {
       font-family: lobster;
       font-size: 24px;
       text-align: left;
       font-weight: normal;
       color: #557799;
       text-transform: lowercase;
   }
   
   .boardurl a:hover {
       font-weight: normal;
       color: #6688aa;
       font-family: lobster;
       font-size: 24px;
       text-align: left;
       text-transform: lowercase;
   }
       
   .subboards a, .subboards a:visited {
       font-size: 12px;
       color: #88aacc;
       width: 140px;
       display: block;
       text-align: center;
       background-color: #557799;
       padding: 5px;
       font-family: arial;
       font-size: 9px;
       text-transform: uppercase;
       -webkit-transition: all 0.2s linear;
       -moz-transition: all 0.2s linear;
       -o-transition: all 0.2s linear;
   }
   
   .subboards a:hover{
       font-size: 12px;
       width: 140px;
       color: #88aacc;
       display: block;
       text-align: center;
       background-color: #6688aa;
       padding: 5px;
       font-family: arial;
       font-size: 9px;
       box-shadow: 2px 2px 2px #888888;
       text-transform: uppercase;
       -webkit-transition: all 0.2s linear;
       -moz-transition: all 0.2s linear;
       -o-transition: all 0.2s linear;
   }
   
   .lastpostsection {
       background-color: #f5f5f5;
       font-family: petit formal script;
       font-size: 10px;
       text-trasnform: lowercase;
   }
   
   .lastpostsection a {
       font-family: petit formal script;
       font-size: 10px;
       text-transform: lowercase;
       border-bottom: 1px solid #f1f1f1;
       font-weight: normal;
       height: 50px;
   }
   
   .boarddesc {
       background-color: #f5f5f5;
       padding: 5px;
       text-align: justify;
       font-family: calibri, tahoma;
       font-size: 12px;
       height: 150px;
       overflow: auto;
   }
   
   .lastpostavatar {
       border: 5px solid #f1f1f1;
       text-align: right;
       padding: 5px;
   }
</style>

I also noticed if I set a board to be a redirect to a specific post or something, the subboards become a jumbled mess.  Can anybody spot the problem causing that as well?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for taking a look!
