The New Unified Forum
Posted: Wed Jul 09, 2003 2:49 am
All right - it has been done.
You may notice some changes right off the bat. First of all, everything looks different. I have installed a new default theme for the forum (Aeolus). If anyone likes the old one better you can switch it back on a per-user basis. Just go to "Profile" at the top and scroll down to "Board Style." The old theme is called Helius. Also if anyone finds a phpBB theme on the internet they would like me to install then just let me know.
The Emoticons have also been re-done. This took an amazing amount of work and had I known that when I started I might not have bothered. But anyway, now you can see cooler ones without hitting "View more Emoticons." Also, there is a full listing of all emoticons and code along with other larger emoticons at http://enderzero.net/smilies
Obviously I am totally kidding about no wackiness or tomfoolery. What fun is a forum if Tom isn't being fooled. But I would like to try to keep bickering and spamming to a minimum of course.
The main reason I unified the forums is that there seem to be a couple groups of people that hang out here without crossing over too much. The conversation isn't that far apart and I know everyone and think most of you have a lot in common. But with the previous structure a monkey might have been less inclined to post in a zoner's thread and vice versa. Hopefully this will eliminate that.
I know this is just a peasily little forum with a handfull of my friends on it. But I really enjoy having it none the less. If anyone has any ideas as how to improve or attract more people than please use this space to let me know.
Thanks to everyone for kickin it in the Lair.
PEACE
