Well we used to have a forum like this about a year and a half ago. I left it off when changing messages boards one time, but I think it might be a good idea to bring it back. If anyone has any ideas of things I can do to improve the site, finds something that's not working right, or anything like that please post it in here. I'm also going to post changes done to the site in here from now on. I'm always changing stuff around on here, but don't always make a post about it, so people are always asking me what the hell happened. Here's a couple of things I've done lately that you might have noticed...
Upgraded to mYvBindex v3.0 - mYvBindex is a hack for the message board that I actually wrote myself and seems to be pretty popular over at vBulletin.org (a vBulletin hack site). :D It's what you see on the homepage that shows your info when logged in or the box to let you log in, the online users, news... Basically everything on the homepage. The new version added the stats box w/ top posters, birthdays, etc. It also shows post's rating, the printable & send to friend icons in the news section(yea, big deal I know :p), the number of new posts since your last visit, and I'm sure there's a few other things I'm forgetting about. So if anyone was wondering where the extra stuff came from, that's where. ;)
Did anyone notice that some of the colors were changed here? The biggest chage was the old, bright, eye burning purple that was the header background color. I was playing with the style and decided to see what it looked like a bit darker... When I went back to the old style I swear it almost blinded me, so I figured I should tone it down a little before everyone sued me for retinal damage to their eyes. I also changed the colors for a lot of the other styles. Some of them were just horrible, so I worked on them and found some much better colors schemes.
I know I've changed a hell of a lot of other things that I forgot to mention, but I can't think of much else right now. Anyways, I hope everyone likes the new forum and hopefully I'll get some good idea's from people to make the site even better. :)
