Why remove good board features???

Post by **losCHUNK** » Sat Feb 12, 2005 12:49 am

im not fond of them either

just a thought tho, to add some color to the board... what if you replace the FAQ, Search etc icons with the red ones inplicit posted

Not a bad idea they are all here http://www.phase0.info/images/forum_icons_red/

and the default ones I made are all here.

I just turned my contrast right down and I now see these borders... you're right, they suck

Post by **Turbanator** » Sat Feb 12, 2005 12:54 am

:lol:

About the IM icons. I'm not too fond of them at the top either.

They were okay at the bottom though. Mayby try it once with the IM icons across the bototm like they were, and have all the usual stuff at the top?

just to let you know

I'm keeping as close to old skool q3w as possible as if you try something new, you always get some people loving it and some hating it, if I stick to something everyone loves, it's easier to keep more people pleased.

i won't be making any major style changes because of this, just trying to aim for the q3w feel whilst keeping phpbb functionality.

i'm using archive.org to lookup the style of each q3w page... and I'm actually tempted to add a fake banner at the top to make it a little more old skool... but it seems a pointless relic.

On the old q3w, you could select an emoticon to be the post icon. I miss that

The new post icons would look better in red or something, rather than orange

God that's so petty i'm almost proud of it :icon32:

we used to have this above signatures before:

Yea, I figured it wouldn't be one of the easier changes. Cool that you're gonna do it though.

Still there's some things that won't be the same. At least I think not.
Like 1 sig per thread. And that bloody awful seperate icon selection window
In fact if the emoticon selection has to stay like that, it may be an idea to change the ones readily available to more commonly used ones, rather than having to open up the seperate window

what makes you think I won't implement all this (given enough time)?

Aren't you in bed young man? :icon6:

Post by **glossy** » Sat Feb 12, 2005 2:28 am

i like the Y [icq] [msn] thingys on the post, but that just might be me... much easier if you need that info. turn down the saturation in the icons if the colour is overpowering ?

oh, and if you're not going to customise the FAQ, i'd definately can it. all it contains is vague instructions on how to post on a bb, and i'm sure anyone who has managed to find this place can figure that much out for themselves. (same with usergroups)
