Default Lost Boy Studios - A Media Discussion Broad

Hello Everyone,

I thought I share my little vbulletin site here at VB.org. Its a small media discussion board where you can make make videos and other creative connect and share them on forums for people to discuss.

Here is the main domain name for it.

http://lostboystudios.com/

We redirected it to the forums since we are still working on some stuff but feel free to join it if you want too. I would also like to add to that I know the banner is out of place at the moment but the one you are going to see is only a temp one for now. So don't worry about it to much.

Have fun and hope to see you soon on the boards. Plus let me hear your opinions too.

Lostboyfan (Robby)

Thank you Gero50 for posting and yes he is one of the admins on the site. Is anyone anyone else going to post in here? If not then I guess that means there is nothing wrong with our site.

hmmm , here is my C&C .... i feel like vB4 has taken a step back instead of forward with the designs... and to make things worse , they didnt really include some helpful tutorials to create awesomeness out of the power of CSS... So this leads me to say that the colors you chose are not quite that which i would like.. (personally) ... the buttons are pretty not well designed , you can do better, digg in the code create your own custom code, and as i posted on a previous post , go take some tutorial lessons on colors , CSS , and i can guarantee you will create a better looking site..

Unfortunately , its not really a great site in terms of eye appeal ... i would give it a 3/10.. let me know when you have made some changes.

Regards

You can PM Greo50 for all of the style questions and thanks for you opinion. That means a lot to me and the staff. We are planing to make new a new style in the future.

I would like to ask though. What colors do you think we should use for our media site?

I like the idea of the website, and being in the media field myself (although slightly different) I always love checking out websites that are media orientated.

However as said above the colors and overall design leave alot lacking. I don't mean for this to sound disrespectful as I do know how hard it is to be working on a forum my network has four and it's been a six month project so far that will hopefully be completed shortly so I do understand how much work is involved with designing a forum.

I think with some slight modifications to the overall layout/style it can be visually appealing and when I finish my network which would hopefully be very soon (am hopeful for tonight) I would be more than happy to offer my services free of charge to help you with some design work - as someone who is not directly connected to the site.

I think the right idea is there, and really like what your doing but for me to spend time somewhere posting etc I need to like the layout as if I don't like the layout I wouldn't be going there.

I wish you all the best and hope you keep us updated with any design changes you make.

I kinda like the style... I don't know about your "Post Farming" rules though... a bit harsh IMO, seems at this point any traffic is good traffic until things start to take off.
