Forum changes

[bmsonline]

Hello Members,

This forum will be undergoing some changes in the next few days. I have fixed the signature problem and will be adding some new features. I have updated the look of the forum and would appreciate any feedback and input. What would you like to see on this new forum?

Thanks,
Alex

Looks good but i think i prefer the link going straight to the forum. It might put new members off coz not even i can navigate it lol

Apart from the "home" button, there is no other link to the actual forum

i think it looks great too,
but becky has a point.. xxx

[garlicpickle]

waaaah, he's dumped my banner

[xchrissyx]

oh yehh, i never noticed, lol lol too many vinos last night,xxx

[garlicpickle]

I dont mind, it only matched when Peter was testing that black and green layout. It didn't go with this blue one.

[xchrissyx]

yeh, but they were both nice, we should have a spider of the month comp...and the best looking spider should be the banner for that month, lol

[garlicpickle]

A spider pin-up competition?

[Becky]

What a good idea!

Hey Becky,

I'm not sure I follow what you mean. Where was the link? You can get to the main forum by clicking home or by clicking one of the "bread crumbs" that look like this below the menu "Arachnid Addicts :: General Discussion :: Please Read!". I'll add it back in if someone can let me know what it was.

Cheers,
Alex

Sorry..
It was a really good banner; it was just a little on the large side and green. Apart from that it was great.

Honest Alex, I don't mind, i'm just winding you up

[xchrissyx]

That would be up to Peter...
It also depends on if this very simple forum can do it. It's missing 90% of the features it should have.

What do you mean?

Like people enter in banners or something they made and the best one or the one with the most votes is the months banner?

[xchrissyx]

yeh somthing like that, you can have themes for each month like best looking, best sling, funniest shot...just somthing to keep people posting realy, ive got no chance as ive only my 3 but every one else has loads so could get a few posting more..
then the winning pic becomes the banner for that month..you just have to add the tital..
just an idea xx (im full of them, haha)

Aye I get what you mean and its a good idea.. will have a think about it and consider it thanks for posting your idea

[xchrissyx]

no prob, x

[Teeny]

How bout a 'first unread post ' on each thread so we can just click staright to the place we left off last time we visited the thread

[garlicpickle]

A cafe bar would be good too

[Becky]

An 'events' section to list times, dates, venues of exhibitions With a poll type bit to say who's going and who isnt etc

Good idea

Aye good idea but most other sites have done the exact same.
Seeing as only like one on here isn't on Arachnophiles I dont really see the need for it when they could easily look on there?
May try and do it thoug but still if you get what I mean its just as easy to check the times etc on AP or if you wanted to know and your not a member you could always post a thread saying if you dont know the times etc or want to know what shows are on.

Peter.

????? It's not about comparing it to other forums though! It's about having features on here which are useful! surely.....?
