    Ideas and suggestions

    Post by Summers on Fri May 08, 2009 4:23 pm

    Right-o. With the new forum comes a lot more options in terms of what we can do with the layout/graphics etc, which is top. So any suggestions relating to that will be taken into consideration.

    I'm also wondering how people feel about band/promoter forums? I was even considering having 'regional' sections, for different parts of the uk to represent themselves. With the nice new layout i could do something like this with very little clutter on the front page, it'd all be nicely tucked away in sub-forums.

    Just ideas, obviously not all are going to be great but interested what people think.

    the lay out and interface was pretty good on the last one tbh, i like nice standard forums. (but the other one seemed to be fucking up on people who aren't as awesome as me's pc's so good change)

    Isn't that the same as on the other forum? I usually just click the banner at the top.

    i must say, this is way better than we had on skacommunity, we can embed youtube videos! woop woop



    if this works it will be epic, the whole format is much more user friendly.

    A simple yes or no to the chat box would be nice...

    i quite like the idea of a chat box, not sure how much i'd wanna use it though... maybe keep it up for a week and see if people make use of it, if not, we'd never have to see it again, either way i'm gonna try it out for a bit, shout at/be nice to me if you see me in there!

    also, do we know what this smiley: farao could ever be used for? i can't think of any post it would supplement appropriately lol, taking up valuable smiley room by the looks of it!

    Yeah I'm up for the regional sections, that would be good.

    Chat box is alright, I don't think many people would use it that much though.

    I don't like where the chat box is, maybe move it to the bottom? Or have a link to open it in a new window?

    If you click on the chatbox info at the bottom it opens up the chatbox in a new window. So maybe we should just have that.

    Do you know any Egyptian ska bands? I heard some ska with arabic lyrics while I was out there on holiday, I don't know if it was egyptian though. It was pretty good.
