Webmaster Meets Administrator

actually, the title of the forum, i nthe logo, says nothing:

Our Community, where you always are welcome...

that can be a welcome for 99% of the internet actually...

I know.

"I know I need to add a new theme - we have only been on vBulletin for 3 days now so I'm working on that and a lot of other things."

I guess this was the wrong thread for me to try to give an honest opinion on. I wasn't picking your site apart. Simply stating what I felt. Your tone sounds a little on the deffensive side. Maybe you are being deffensive because it's only been up for three days. Why don't you make the changes that you've been wanting to make and try again with getting it reviewed. You might hear comments that you like better next time.

I was talking more to nexialys.

The reason I made the thread so early was because I did want honest opinions but I never expected anyone to say they couldn't figure out the niche of the forum - even hypothetically speaking. I thought doing that was common sense. Apparently not.

at first look, it's lackluster, but you say you're working on a custom theme.

Truly how will that change the text that is describing the forum? the content I see for forum descriptions and such doesn't differentiate it even from THIS very forum. It's just like it but a lighter blue.

What is your point of difference, why would I log onto there versus being elsewhere?

1st issue is loading times, It took atleast 25 seconds for the background to load and another 15-20 before I saw any content, Tested 3 times from 2 different computers, same results

So many forums, so little members and posts.

Alright, I'm going to give this another show since there have been A LOT of changes since the last time I posted.

Web Meets Admin is a forum for webmasters and administrators. It has been dead for the last couple of months but I'm working hard to bring it back. I just (almost) finished the exclusive skin, so let me know what you think, aside from the crappy banner because I do need to get someone to make a new one. Again, I know the banner is horrid, please ignore until I find someone that can fix it.

I'm sure you all remember the thread titled "Custom WmA Theme" in the CD forum. Well, I'm proud to say that thread will now be history because we now have our own WmA theme.

Aside from the main banner, and some other minor things, the theme is in its first final version. I'm happy with the outcome, but again, the banner is crap, and that needs to be changed ASAP.

I'm also thinking about adding some alternatives where the lime blue is swapped with other colors of your choice. If you have any colors you would prefer, let me know and I'll be sure to give it a shot.

I hope you like the theme so far - it will be improved, but this is what it will be for a while, for the most part. If you've got any suggestions or have found any mistakes in the CSS please, do not hesitate to inform me.

I'm sure you also have noticed that I changed the posts to postbit legacy. I think this looks a lot better for WmA right now. Maybe in the future I will work on a way to let you decide which to use.


And no, I didn't forget about the "more to come" part of this thread. I have some big plans for WmA and will try my hardest to make it the best possible community for me and for you. I hope to make it a popular resource for webmasters and administrators. That can't be done without you, the members, though. So go ahead, post around, try out the new WmA... let me know what you think.

I know I'm not the best skinner, but it is a lot better than the old phpBB skin we had. Took me a few months to complete that simple skin (due do different reasons completely irrelevant to the forum) but I do think it looks nice. And when I add some different color versions of it I think everyone will have a skin of their liking.

I also have a lot of plans for the site to make it a lot more unique. Right now it's your basic vBulletin forum, but I will modify it and add a lot of unique content that makes it stand out from its almost non-existent competition. (In terms of a web/admin forum.)

Let me know what you think, but please tell me how to improve in the areas you don't like. And I hate to be like this, but... *** Advertising removed ***

Thanks!

i don't like the bright blue... it's a little hot on the eyes. other then that, it looks just like any other vB forum these days. nothing really jumped out and grabbed me.

ARGH' my eyes hurts...

another admin forum for no reasons.... sitepoint is enough for the million admins who have no life to live...

Thanks for the encouraging words as always, nexialys.
