I personally think this site would be better if when you went to a user's page (like when you click on their name in the forum) you could see the files they have submitted to Omnimaga. And also they should be hyperlinks to the info page on that file.

I was also wondering why the "legendary members" group is no longer yellow. I thought it was much cooler when it was yellow instead of cyan... but that's just me.

I would like to have userpages like ticalc. but it would not be possible with the current forum system because almost all programs were uploaded by me, and the forums can't track who made them, instead i have the author in the topic description. On top of that at least 90% of the authors who made the files here doesn't have a forum account at all. If we were to manually add them, it would take at least 1000 hours of work total to start up, then 30 per week to maintain

And I've put the legendary members yellow because it looked weird on the forums imo and lot of peoiple told me it wasn't looking too great so I've tried to use a color that seemed to match better and didnt burned my eyes like yellow

Ok, sounds fair enough. The whole userpages was just a suggestion, and like I said, I had no clue if it was possible or realistic... Thanks anyway!

Blogs would always be possible though, but i doN't add them now because they would stop working when we move to the new forum system in june 2036

2036?!?! That's thinking a bit ahead now isn't it?

well thats a guess, because zetaboard was supposed to be released in summer 2004, and its still not finished beta testing

in other words, we're moving soon?

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #7 on:** September 04, 2007, 12:14:00 pm »

no, I'm sure we'll have to wait much longer. There is bugfixes done atm still, but the last news date back in early march

Not to sound like a noob, but:
What in the world is "zetaboard"?!!??

rivereye · « **Reply #9 on:** September 05, 2007, 10:35:00 am »

it is what the Invisionfree crew is working on to replace the current board. It was supposed to be out by now I think, but it appears it is not.

ok, whatever... as long as I don't have to rewrite everything.... (makes copies of everything useful)

nope, all posts and accounts will be kept, just not the forum skin
