The "Introduce yourself" thread

[RoboticMonk3y]

Hey,
Someone has been hard at work!

New forum is looking pretty darn sweet!

Good work!

[ratsoalbion]

Thanks man. Jay takes all the credit at this point!

[JaySevenZero]

Thanks Robotic.

When all said and done though, no matter how good a forum looks, it ain't worth spit without a community behind it so it's good to see familiar faces signing up and taking part again - we really do appreciate your support. We've still got some tweaks and extras to add to it over the coming weeks in order to try and give it, at least aesthetically, an individualistic feel and hopefully make this place a forum worthy of everyone's time.

Abit fancy aint it, i think it looks really good, will look better with all our posts

[AndyKurosaki]

Hi guys, nice looking place you've got here

[dezm0nd]

I offer free lap dances for the first 7 registered users on the forum.

[ratsoalbion]

Well we're already up to 35. The first 7 were all your C&R colleagues...

[magicjoef]

Just don't upload the videos

Forum looks great

[General Aquila]

Ooooh, shiny!! Does look really good Jay!

[JaySevenZero]

Thanks General.

If anyone is having any issues with any part of the forum and you think it might be a technical issue or something (avatars or sigs not working etc) you can let me know within this thread.

[Mr Nicey]

Looking good guys!

[DomsBeard]

Look forward to contributing, it'll be nice to get a good community going on here as a couple of my favourite forums are dying at the moment.

Nice work Jay, looks very swish

Just a minor issue with avatars ...
It says the maximum size is 100 x 100 but it doesn't allow anything smaller than 100 x 100 either

[JaySevenZero]

That was deliberate. I kinda thought it looked better if everyone's avatars were the same size. What size was it you were trying to install?

[Benjo321]

Oh that's fine, I'll just resize it then

[catbhoy]

Its about time, never got on with Character Select Forums. Its looks good, nice work.

[Roy42]

Is there no option to have the forum resize avatars to 100x100 on its own? I feel like I've seen that in quite a few phpBB forums before.

[JaySevenZero]

There may be a mod or plugin that would allow that but not as a default in phpbb3.

[magicjoef]

If it helps anyone, there is a free online browser version of Photoshop for the basics, which will crop to a square and resize stuff quite nicely:

Great work on the forums. Never an easy thing to get looking good and these are looking great. Pats on back well deserved.
