My test forum
 

OK, these forums were a secret, and no one knew about it, I was just been fooling around with it, so look at it
http://www.advanced-elements.com/forums :)

I knew about it;)

See what I mean, I was keeping it a secret, yet all these people were watching while I modified it, and such...errr

Drk

No...Lol...

You told me the url 2 days ago;)

Satan

I did...?

Drk

Yep!

You did...

do you two know this very good feature build in vb called PM?
it's very usefull for privat conversations as yours in much threads here ;)

0.02$

/me is stunned by Xenon's wit...

Lol...

I didnt mean it to end up like this - I simply said I knew about it, and he told me...

Anyway : Back to your forums...

Yes...The Graphical side is great, but there are 2 things I dont like :

1.) The Welcome bit : The info about "Register first" and stuff is all screwed up...
2.) A page you are trying to call does not exist, so leaves a nasty "Cannot find server" message...

Don't like the postbit buttons. Too hard to read. And the reply and newthread buttons are pretty ugly. Too OSX mac glass type thing. If they were smaller then they might fit.

PS i don't think you should post a forum here until it's finished. Maybe a subforum for "beta setups" or something. A clear distinction between "Iam fully done check it out" and "I need some help on what to do next", or "how's this looking so far?".

The Fully finished Forums tend to get minimal replies where as beta forums get endless replies on what should be done next.

Maybe a "Forum Commenting" and a "Forum Designing Pre release" boards.

the welcome box is gigantic

Am i allowed to say the brown seems a bit boring??? (without causing offence) If not then it's great.

You guys can say what ever you want about the forums, they are my test board, I isntall hacks there, and fool around with templates lol.

Drk

I appreciate the comments, if there was a Forum Pre Finish....forum was there, I might of posted there :)

If there was one, that would be good.

Drk

I was wondering, can i install a normal vbulletin board viewable to the publicc and a test board for me to test things with my one vb liscnece?


And to drk, nice :) How do you create the banner and the buttons though ive always wondred how to tie them into a top. I dont like fiddling with vb code so i wanted to know
