    This new forum freaks me out.

    Actually it doesn't, I just wanted to be the first to post.

    How is everyone?

    So am I to presume that an actual admin has returned?

    Damn straight. And we shouldn't see any abuse with Kraco and Saphhire around.

    Everything is so clean. =)

    I will abuse Saphhire, though, so that is good enough for me.

    Hehe, this reminds me of how we changed from the old blue website to the last forum. This is a nice layout though, good job ^^

    glad you like it. I've been trying to perfect the style in my spare time for a long time, but I hit the point where I pulled a Bill-O: "Fuck it, I'll do it live!" ...

    So positive feedback makes me happy, but negative feedback gives me a list of things to fix when I have spare time. Heh-heh-heh spare time.

    But actually, the other folks who're admins should maybe be able to help with that a bit too.

    Oooh, fancy. Are sig and avatar restrictions still the same?

    Edit: The Control Panel says 125x125 for avatar and 500x125 for sig. Is this the new standard?

    Actually, I just loosened it even more. 150x150 for ava/profile, 500x150 for sig. Thinking about adding more width to the sig option, but probably not more height ...

    It's on my to-do list. If you've got any suggestions on how to make it happen, I'm all ears. I spent like 20 minutes trying to pick apart the page structure but it didn't work out, so I decided to just roll with it.

    What happened to the rep system?? I live for pos rep.

    Otherwise, the new forum layout looks fresh and so clean. Thanks for your hard works.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Rep is there, a little less obvious. On the gray bar on the bottom, look for the star. It's kinda a shitty icon for it and it doesn't show up very well on the charcoal on dark gray, but ... what can you do?

    We'll see if we can at least get those tweaked to stand out a bit more...

    Does anyone have screens of the main forum page, of a forum page (threads) and of a post of the old forum?

    Thanks.

    Hey, where's that rep message box where anonymous tough guys show up to bully me consistently?

    Anyway the color is a little bright for me, plus lots of empty spaces, maybe the message column being too wide. Having to move my head to read one sentence is too much of a strain for me.

    You bastards are gonna raid my rep box aren't you... o_O

    Concerning the stuff in the gray bar, I failed to change to red anything but the Reply hover icon. I'll get down to it soon. They'll all be bright red (to annoy humpburger) when you move your mouse on top of them. I think their passive colour is just fine, though. Anything consistently bright there would make reading the posts more annoying.

    However, like Complich said, feedback will be read, also concerning the colours. Though since altering the icons takes some PS work, I won't be changing them every week.

    Shit what just happened here? The forum does feel more fresh and perhaps 'clean'. There is that inertia to change in me right now still pushing me to crawl back to the old site layout but I can see the benefits of this one. Good job.

    Ayay, nice job with the new look! ^_^

    Edit: BTW, just click on "Settings" in the top-right corner of the site to get to your "Latest Reputation Received" info and whatnot.
