What are your ideas? I think bigger avatars and multiple themes to choose from would rock.

I cant even see the avatars or anything right now...i get that little box with an X in it. I would say some new icons and such...possibly bigger font...

I had trouble importing the Avatars and I had to disable them so we woudln't have that ugly X. I might have to clear them all out and let you guys submit new ones.
I think I have also fixed the font color/size problem.
As for different themes...I don't think I will be able to do that as its quite hard to get this thing looking right...there are SOOOOOOO many variables in vBulletin that I have to set and reset to get things looking half way decent. Once we get it set...thats where we will stay.

Bigger avatars are a must. And I'm thinking different icons at the bottom of the main screen that represent the people on, ect.

Turning HTML leads to a lot of problems.
If anybody has any cool graphics for any of the site icons that will work with a black background please send them to me. Keep in mind they must be consistent with other graphics on the site.

I think we should have the font be something other than white, or maybe have the links be different colors....
Im looking for good icons right now.

Try this. It has a set of transparent background icons (to work with black). I think it has forum markers.

maybe add quick replies back. a bit bigger avatars yeah. but you should definitely allow sig pics. you could just limit them though. we could beta test that.

Cool! My name and pass work here :p
I like the sounds of that Gamer. Bigger avatars is always a plus, allow others to be more creative. One thing I would like to see in my opinion, is a area in the profile to add a some information about yourself, and maybe I decent sized picture (500x500 or something.) But really I don't know a lot about your limitations here, but this is just what I would like to see. By the way, I like the banner!
Wait, wow crap! I still have my post number from H2B here! When Gamer told me my account was 'transferred' he wasn't kidding!

nope i wasnt. now if we delete all posts here we would still have just as many posts. thats a good thing in that if we lose all topics or something we wont be grunts.

Very True. I was happy to see I wasnt a grunt the moment I logged on lol.

i think this site is totally great and all, but lets go 1 step further... LAN PARTIES!!!... I have alot of freinds on this site that ive have never even seen, so i think that haLo3boards should host an annual LAN PARTY.. there would be a fee to get in, so the site could make some extra cash, it would also bring the video game community closer together.

i think we should bring back the quick reply box for quick answers. it made it so much easier

Was instant message chat unavailable? It was a thought on H2boards.

i hope it is available and just needs to be added
also i think that threads that uve just answerd to (this may already be in effect) should come up as bigger than unanswered (since u last checked them) but smaller then the 1s that u have not read and have been answered.... just an idea...

There should be xbl live battle's im not sure if thats the same thing as lan parties but it would be cool if we get 16 people and play btb slayer or custem games for fun you know what i mean?

I like most of the site, except for a couple of things. the "senior member" thing is cool. I don't miss the rep bars. I like the black, personally, but I think you should lose the striped backround because It makes everything on top of it look smaller. The text should be a bit bigger, especially the quotes, which are almost unreadable. I could make some icons if you need me to. Just out of curiosity, could you use .gif files for icons?
Unknown_Gamer
10-15-2006, 11:15 PM
most sites only allow URL's for avatars and such, and mainly use .gif yes. but alot of times you need to use URL or saved pictures. I could make icons also. Check my site in my sig to see what I can do.

I would like to see the senior member status moved up a couple hundred posts....
We have "senior members" that just joined this month...
i just dont think thats right....

I haven't seen it yet, I'd like to know who's on too. Also is html code possible? Then I would be able to use video avatars, or video signatures.

im sure someones said this already but we need the old ranks bank they were much cooler. and maybe a list of avatars we could use that would be sweet

Black is an awesome color, but I was wondering if we could get some different skins.
Another is maybe put more umph on the chat room. Its pretty bone dry...
