Forum Streamlining

by **Darkwing** 2009-05-31, 14:49

This forum was getting quite large, and there was a lot to scroll through, so I have no condensed sections into other sections and things like that. All of the old sections still exist. To find them just read the little blurb under each section, that will till you which sections are in other ones. Any questions then just contact me or post here. Also, the archives should now be visible to all members.

Thank you, this is a good change, it makes it much easier to navigate. Less cluttered.

by **Destral** 2009-05-31, 16:39

I agree! I like the changes DW.

by Shemuel 2009-05-31, 17:29

There goes the introductions section. (Like the tearing down of Saddam's statue)

by **Darkwing** 2009-05-31, 17:36

no, it's just in the general section now

by me naam is m 2009-05-31, 17:38

now noobs will never find it...

by Philly Homer 2009-05-31, 21:33

At least we won't have any more one-post members that only post in the intro section. They'll actually want to have to find it now.

by Earthdeath 2009-06-01, 17:52

There seems to be a problem with the archives section.Under the admin panel, everything in it should be visible to all members and guests, but i cant see any topics in it when im not logged on.

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-01, 23:04

i have it visible to members only

by Earthdeath 2009-06-02, 18:37

ah.That would explain it.

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-04, 21:01

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! i was reading something and then suddenly the skin of the forum changed! dude, this is an awesome skin!

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-04, 21:03

and this one is better with contrast to the forum.

by **Thingy** 2009-06-04, 21:05

Yeah!! it's awesome! really awesome! And one hell of alot better than that ancient bland thing you had before

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-04, 21:07

another new skin! this one is better in contrast to the members' names at the bottom.

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-04, 21:08

ok, so should it be this one or the one i just had?

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-04, 21:09

this one that is currently up. though i liked the first one best, it was bad in contrast to the forum

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-04, 21:10

so not:

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-04, 21:11

yeah, not that one. i like the current one better.

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-04, 21:11

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-04, 21:12

unfortunately, yes. i like it the best, but you would have to re-arrange the whole forum if you were to put that one in.

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-04, 21:13

k, well, i plan on doing some minor adjustments, i'm also going to try and play with the css, so if things look really really strnage, don't complain, it's just me screwing things up

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-04, 21:20

just gotta comment on that, it's the true "dark"wing

by Philly Homer 2009-06-04, 21:29

THE NEW SKIN LOOKS AMAZING!

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-04, 21:31

heck yeah, after all this time, i finally figured out how to make those suckers transparent!!!

by Stryker 2009-06-04, 21:39

the new skin is so abstract..... and so luminescent.

I love it.

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-04, 23:27

unfortunately i didn't make the background, it's just a google one, but i got a friend who makes really cool abstract space scenes and maybe he'll design one

by **Leach54** 2009-06-04, 23:33

Its friken awesome

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-05, 00:16

i do want to see it on a bigger monitor. M, do you think you could post a screenshot of the forum mainpage for me please?

by me naam is m 2009-06-05, 09:55

now that is some suweet background, dw, i have to admit that. if you intended it to be tiled it's a little bit less though.

Ah, a new background.Always nice to see a change in this forums scenery every now and then.

by Shemuel 2009-06-06, 14:39

Awesome background. It slows my computer, but it's worth it.

by Darkjedi 2009-06-09, 03:55

Great!

I love it!

Once again, I leave a little while, and something good happens here!

It's like, Darkwing's subconscious really wanted to give me a good home coming present! LOL!

by Jtull 2009-06-09, 04:55

nah he just loves you and wants you to stay this time. Wink

naww, it's just the absense of your negative influence.

by Philly Homer 2009-06-09, 14:03

Snarky today, aren't we?

by me naam is m 2009-06-09, 16:35

very snarky, i need to get my daily dose of snark too, y'know.

I know, I'm so bad.

Razz

(Just kidding)

Anywho, I would have to say that I like the way everything was condensed also.

It makes it so much easier to scroll through the place!

by Philly Homer 2009-06-09, 22:12

I actually found it disconcerting, well, at least the first time I saw the form streamlined. But I'm used to it now.

by Darkjedi 2009-06-09, 22:18

Yeah, I kinda reacted that way too.

But, my first reaction did happen to be:

"NOO!!! DW killed all of the sections!....

Oh wait, no he didn't..."

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-10, 00:37

i've asked a friend of mine (an extremely good photoshopper, probably because i taught him everything i knew) to make a personalized background for this forum (he makes wicked space scenes) though I did tell him to do it when he has time, so if he doesn't forget, we might get a cool personalized background for here sometime in the next month

by Darkjedi 2009-06-10, 12:34

Just watch, It's gonna be a picture of Darkwing in his underwear.

(That's a personalized picture for ya! Razz

)

by Philly Homer 2009-06-10, 12:41

I want a picture of the meanie-head's kitty.

alka for president! glass clink

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-10, 17:16

so now i'm referred to as meanie head, oh well, whatever gets the job done. i'm also working on linking the subsections on the mainpage, i have it done for the ft media section, now you can click the links in its description and it takes you there.

by Shemuel 2009-06-10, 17:40

That'll be useful. Before it took too many clicks to get from one sub-section to another.

by me naam is m 2009-06-10, 17:54

true zat.

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-10, 19:01

yeah, it's just been time that i've been lacking to do these things, a few more days and it's all over....

by **Destral** 2009-06-10, 21:22

Love the new Background DW!

by Galaxy-Scarface 2009-06-12, 20:59

this doesn't look as good as the old background i think.

by **Darkwing** 2009-06-12, 21:00

as per usual, i will wait a week or so before i actually determine if people like it or not, as everybody always says the one before was better, always.
