    Lately I've been doing some tweaks to the website; mainly consisting of some minor cleanup, updating of applications, etc. However, am I not too happy with the website in it's current state and I believe it can be improved greatly. Kyle also shares the same opinion as me, but much more passionately. I am thinking a new theme to the forum would address most of the dislikes I have with the current website, however, some of my annoyances are with Invision Board itself.

    I want to know the opinion of the community. Please vote in the above poll and post what you like and dislike about the website. And please be honest; I won't take anything personally. :wink:

    I like the website but one of those skins we were looking at would be nice.

    Use the pretty pink theme that you showed Haplo. DO IT.

    On a serious note, the website itself is pretty damn good although the perfectionist in us will always want that bit more to make it perfect. Perhaps some tweaks here and there will make it look nicer, but it's running fine as is. Also, the dark background and white font really make it easier on the eyes. Staring at the a light bulb is unpleasant so the darker colors really do help.

    What type of tweaks, under than the theme, were you wanting to do?

    I think the website should be a bit easier to navigate: organized more if can. The color could be changed but its not bad. I'd like to see what u guys would do with it :smile:

    Needs a better skin for sure. I'm using whatever I added the other night still, it makes me want to visit the forums more.

    I'm pretty damn happy that JS is now working on pages, I'll work on a work around for the Steam Profile junk.

    Do more subdivisions on topics. Or some sort of Subtopics.

    Color scheme outside of the post boxes, we could try for something lighter.

    And I guess some sort of anonymous section for those who wants to rant off >.>

    the only thing i really miss from the old forums is the easily accessible "view recent topics", now I have to click on the forums tab and scroll all the way down to "view today's topics"

    Pretty sure... only thing I did change was group, but how would that be it when the settings on my new group are duplicated from the Head Honcho group... so in theory, nothing has changed. :wacko:

    The forum is smart. It detected Brian as being lazy, so it's making more work for him by hiding the Recent Topics.

    [EDIT] Lol Kyle, looks like you're the only one that hates this skin. O_o

    Well, i'm not given an option, I don't know if someone overwrote my permissions but I really don't care other than reaper's text which is impossible to read since I enjoy this theme.

    I could easily say that the forums would be a lot more attractive to people if we had a better theme.
