If you head over to User Settings, you'll notice a new date format entry. The way it works is a bit obscure but can be pretty useful, so I'll give a few examples here.

The basic idea is that you can put whatever punctuation connectors you want, along with the proper format characters, to format it whichever way you like. For example...

m-d-y, the usual up to now, will show something like 12-31-05.
d-m-y would show 31-12-05.
You can get a bit zanier and do something like
m/d/y for 12/31/05,
or include times by doing
m/d/y H:i for 12/31/05 23:59
or alternatively
m/d/y h:i A for 12/31/05 11:59 PM.
And if you REALLY have horizontal resolution to burn, you can even do
h:i:s A, F jS, Y for 11:59:59 PM, December 31st, 2005.
(note that trying to put 'on' in there won't work, nor will most letters)

If you add a time, it'll be dependent on your time zone setting in the forum; I'll get around to adding that to the user settings page sometime soon.

No more forced American format dates. :o

Well this gets my approval.

Only one thing I can say.

:o

This is like supercool. :D

EDIT: Maybe the "Date" heading should be changed to accomodate for those that put a time. Maybe the header could be like "Submitted" or something.

Wow, this is awesome. Very good idea Rolk.
