The columns on the main wwwthreads page are misaligned when the forums are new, it's a table size bug that I'm not exactly able to track down but it goes away when each board has a post in it.
Language preferences are set by cookies. When you edit your profile the cookie is sent with the header information. You can't retrieve the cookie until the next load of a page, so you still get the old language until you hit another page so it can grab the updated cookie.

To do a date listing of DD/MM/YYYY 13:24 you would probably need to set your $config['timeformat'] to short4 in config.inc.php and then edit main.inc.php about line 618 where it looks like this:
$time = date("Y/m/d H:i", $time);
Just change that, to this:
$time = date("d/m/Y H:i", $time);
