Linguica Posted March 12, 2002 As you might be able to tell, I finally got rid of that POS BBHacks software in exchange for a shiny new copy of VBulletin. Obviously not everything is set up correctly yet, and tomorrow I will fix everything wrong that I can find. HOWEVER: * I ported over all the usernames of those who have posted within the last 6 months * I ported over ALL posts and threads I should mention that I had to write my own code to do this because BBHacks is too shitty for vBulletin to bother writing it themself. So, in conclusion, feel free to shower me with praise, and if you liked BBHacks better, you can kindly go to hell. 0 Share this post Link to post
dsm Posted March 12, 2002 The new board kicks arse! I appreciate your hard work but it might take me some time to get used to the new look, heh Btw, what exactly is the option to attach files good for? To post pics? 0 Share this post Link to post

Zro Posted March 12, 2002 This new look is much better than the previous one! Nice to see that some things change around here. 0 Share this post Link to post

RusseII Posted March 12, 2002 yeah yeah, whatever, not much of a difference here. :P 0 Share this post Link to post
IMJack Posted March 12, 2002 Looks cool, Ling! It'll take me a while to get used to the new look... Not to mention the blatantly hideous VBull pimpage slapped at the top of every page. Bring back the DW logo. Otherwise, looks great! BTW, anyone who hasn't already, you'll have to reset your sigs. 0 Share this post Link to post

LorD BaZTArD Posted March 12, 2002 Heh, these are pretty cool forums...but at the moment, and I appreciate its only day one. but its a bit slow. IMO. but still not bad. And it seems you can make custom avatars if over 1000 posts now, I dunno if that is correct or not. but if it is, I better get cracking....550 posts to go..I probably should make an icon too :P 0 Share this post Link to post
KING ELVIS Posted March 12, 2002 Heh, I wonder why they don't have moved the stuff to one of the free ProBoards. It would also make sense to keep only one forum left: Post Hell. 0 Share this post Link to post

deadnail Posted March 12, 2002 I get off work and look at this shit. Hey Ling, can I make a few suggestions here? #1 For the love of Christ, never entertain the idea of enabling the file uploading. Please. #2 Don't use the CSS to change the color of the scrollbars. On XP that disables the theme's scrollbar and it clashes terribly. AFAIK it doesn't even work on browsers other than IE anyway. #3 Increase the difference between posts. I know there's already a dark blue and light blue difference but right now they really run right into each other. #4 I'm not being ingrateful or anything, this software is quite obviously far superior to the shit I'm currently used to and I'm sure you'll mold it into something grand. Oh, what I'd pay to see the look on Lüt's face when he gets here... assuming he's still alive. =/ 0 Share this post Link to post
