    Yeah, the site is a teeny bit too wide at the moment, maybe something around 75-80% of page width ought to do it.

    There's something funky about the avatar uploading. Why would 100x100 pixels be limited to 10 KB? It looks like other people have 100x100 at larger than 10 KB.

    Mistake on my part. It's now set to 30KB max.

    Should I go larger than that? I think some gif images need more.

    Edit: set it to 50KB; people with gif avatars let me know if you need more.

    Is there any room to contemplate the table width adjustment? That is the last thing I'll bitch about for the rest of the day, fo realz.

    Yeah I'll tweak the size at some point. I'm done working the site for today though. I'll probably wait until a time when no one is on because I can practically guarantee I'm going to break shit in the process.

    Yeah well done, you have done well. We do need some things to do with writing you post. Such as in-bedding a link in to a title or word, and also being able to use different colours for text. Things like that. I could have done with purple earlier for those epics I posted up in the WoW thread.

    You can change the colour of text, just click the last icon and then type the colour in the front.

    Like this
    and this

    I know that now, but not everyone will be smart enough to get that. Some new members or n00bs anyway. Just thinking on it really.

    It's probably for the best. I hate it when people always post in freaky colours.

    Yeah, good job sir. This is pretty good, I like the "New Post" links, and the "Active Topics" page is a worthy substitute for good old Recent Discussions.

    I think they were already a part of the forum, lol.

    Yay or nay on private messages?

    I can install it if people want it. Sigs are worthless and won't ever be turned on, but PM's could be useful in some situations.

    Yay if theres no insulting and attacking via the PM system. Nay if there is.
     
  14. #34 chi, Jan 24, 2011
    Well there's always the report button. PMs would be good.

    Well, I've made a start on the main site section. I have a very nice CMS installed whichs should make creating and editing news or blogs or articles very easy. Am just tweaking a few things here and there...I'll get some previews running.

    I just need to figure out what the site tree is going to look like...

    PM's are anti-forum by nature, therefore smell of pompousness.
     
  17. #37 Armadeadn, Jan 24, 2011
    you mean like game reviews and such? I can do a couple of those.
     
  18. #38 monsly, Jan 24, 2011
    Yes to PMs, sigs can go DIAF so I'm happy with that.

    @Ichiban

    Thanks for putting up a favicon. I was meaning to do it.

    One last suggestion. I think a slightly off-white background would go really good with the all white table. Since the forum theme is blue, a light blue color might work awesome.
