I had to change the forum software to something which didn't have such a shitty license.. phpbb is under the GPL unlike IPB.

Tell me what changes you want me to make and I will do it.

EDIT:
Take a look at this post which tries to summarize intpcentral or something:
http://intp.1.forumer.com/index.php?showtopic=462

[antireconciler]

Neat.

Can avatars be 100x100 pixels instead of 80x80? (Look what you did to it!)

[Utopmk]

The avators have to be 6kb.
I really hope you can change that logo too :lol:

[file cabinet]

changed avatar size limit to 120x120 and max avatar filesize to 16kb

This one is the best skin:

that theme isn't 2.0.9 compatible.. I don't have time to modify it so it would be compatible. sorry :( (again)

for other people that read this thread, look here to see if any of the styles which are 2.0.9 compatible are of any interest to you.

I've added:
Helius
Jenoav
Morpheus
BBlite

[file cabinet]

I will need to modify all the styles so that the logo is changed proper. Ngene, did you have that file as a PSD or anything? Or maybe a graphics wizard would like do this? I don't like graphics :evil:

[Utopmk]

This may be helpful, I hope so.

they have a theme pack available for download also.

that site is actually more for php-nuke.

If there are any mods/features which are requested, I would probably do them myself... unless they already exist at a site like this:
http://www.phpbbhacks.com/

first one I have my eye on is this one but I'll probably have to tweak it for compability with 2.0.9:

New forum and new name, yay!
I decided my name said too much about me and changed it, yes, I used to be Iyalmej on the other forum, should probably add that to my signature or something...

Well, got here. Sniffing around suspiciously like a wild-cat brought into your house for the first time.


How you gonna re-order all the dates of joining from the other Forum ? Just asking.

I've already emailed her.. when she signs up she can redeem her admin status.

Who's into graphics?
I need the INTP logo from the previous site to be blended into each forum style/theme. Send me a private message on this forum or the other forum with your AIM screen name or email.

Aeolus doesn't look too bad...

AEOLUS (http://demo.phpbbstyles.com/index.php?url=L3ZpZXd0b3BpYy5waHA%2FdD0zNDImc3R5bGU9Mjc%3D&style=27)

Oh, b......r: lot's of typing for urls again, no easy applets !

How many themes can you actually add ? Actually, on another ppb forum: you can add a 'country flag' option under 'location': although as a reactionary I don't recognise most of them as real flags, they look quite pretty. The flag slots beneath your avatar.

I can add as many themes as desired by the community.
Aeolus doesn't appear to be compatible with phpbb2.0.9
the flag idea sounds interesting.. but personally I would prefer to add things which would provide more function. if anyone else is interested in the flag I could make it happen but I would worry about 'cluttering' the forum especially with all those flags(poor 56k!).

And I looked into the flag thing:
http://www.phpbbhacks.com/download/3251
which doesn't say whether it is 2.0.9 compatible yet :shock:

If anyone is bored, and you want to suggest any additional features, visit here then come back here or post in the Suggestion Box something you think should be added:

Well, if in order of joining, NGene was no. 1, & you ( say ) were no. 90, and I was no. 137?, something like that, in the Parent-Forum: shouldn't they be the same joining numbers as before ? O/W I'm magically ahead of people who joined long before me. [ And it being past 4am here I'm not going back to check those numbers: too selfish ] :twisted:

( And not complaining, cos I'm adaptable and obliging; but the reply posts don't have a clickable link: instead one pastes. Is this standard ppb, or have I missed an option somewhere ? :) :) )

Still, excellent work so far. Carry on, as we say in the army briskly.

although it is possible, it is not a good idea -- fucking with foreign keys, etc.

Yeah, I do graphics, the question is, do you want me to be honest about the criticism?? I am pretty anal when it comes to graphics myself...I will PM you with what I mean...I will still like to help out, but I will also put in my two cents ^_^

[Jezebel]

Yeah, I would post and forget to register. I registered on the old board but forgot I didn't do it here.

Anyways, I vote for disabling guest posts. It's annoying to not realize you didn't log in and it still let you post as a guest, and then you're stuck with the post and you can't edit it and you have to repost just so people will know who you are. And I guess it could also decrease anonymous spammers and flamers and stuff like that.

I like doing graphic stuff. I don't have the time to redo the logo for every theme but would be willing to do a couple and split the work with someone else. But if you found someone who wants to do them all, I don't care THAT much. Just let me know if you'd like me to help out.

Oh, and I'm Amy.

after I saw the "Guest" post I set all the forum permissions to only registered users. :shock:

I've got the image file as XCF, Gimp's native format. I'm not anywhere near a graphics wizard, but I could do some style modifying if no one else wants, if I have the time or skills. But, erm, I'll more than gladly let someone else do the graphics stuff... ;)


Joining dates and member numbers:

I personally don't think the same exact numbers are that important, especially if it's a lot of trouble. There seems to be some people who were among the first ones who registered at the old forum, but aren't interested in it anymore.

The only thing that annoys me right now is that I'm not the member #1 but I can live with that as well. :D


Hm, I guess I can come up with a^n other issues, but I'll address them when I get my own internet connection working again. :cry:

[Strephonade]

Is this one compatible? If so, could we please add it, as well?

I could be awfully mean here, but because you've done such a good job I won't. WHEN one gets an EMAIL POST to tell you you have a REPLY: on the old board one CLICKED the LINKED url: and straight away one was transported to the Netherworld of the INTP Forum.
With the emails sent here, the URL is not CLICKABLE. One copies it, and pastes it into an open browser. Which is OK, but not neat: I wondered if I could enable it in my profile or something ?

I was tired, and am now, but thanks for caring :D


best wishes & thanks

How you gonna re-order all the dates of joining from the other Forum ? Just asking.I don't care so much about the member numbers (though I was earlier than most - 21, I think) as the post count. I know it's sort of a petty thing to be worried about, but I mostly lurk and don't post much so it's going to take me a while to get up to 250 posts and go through the naming ritual, to which I was looking forward. On the old board I had 196 posts.

For the skins, are the ones that say compatible with 2.0.4 also compatible with 2.0.9, which I would assume is like 2.0.4 with added features?

I can change your post count to 196 if you'd like. I can try installing a 2.0.4 skin but it may not look entirely correct. tell me which one I should try.

[Miss Padfoot]

No, don't change my post count unless you change everyone else's too. That wouldn't be fair.

The skin I had in mind was BMan1Blue (http://www.phpbb.com/styles/forum/index.php?style=91), the one Claverhouse mentioned further up the page.

[Claverhouse]

Hell, change mine whatever you decide. If I transfer 114 over, and everyone else forgets I'll have a great lead.

Not that I'm competitive that often.
