You'll notice some weird things happening with the forum colours for the next few days. The new website should be up in a matter of days, and I'm going to try to update the look of the forums to match.

 

Unfortunately I can't preview changes before I make them, so if you notice some really, really bad colours, they're only temporary.

I like the experimental brown (wood) look you've just set up.

:)

Yeah, I'm just working on figuring out where they are in the code. There's a lot of stuff to wade through. It'll be a few days before I can look at everything.

I'm just doing it this way so I can test the results instantly. I'll send you all the images when I'm finished. :)

This isn't really for the team's benefit, since we'll be on the forums no matter what they look like. But since we are starting to have more visitors to the public forums, it's nice to have the whole thing looking a little more professional.

Ah... I'm changing back from the default skin to the DarkMod again, because default things are so depressing, and the dark blue background is finally gone from the search results :)

 

Spring, I agree - our web presense will help gain support, its definetley worthwhile. And you're doing a good job.

Thanks. :) Though I think I'll replace the ones that indicate a sub-forum with a round version rather than the golden one.

Some of the buttons won't show up unless you empty your cache. That happened to me too. Some of them just haven't been changed yet though. I've shifted my focus to the main website for the next day or so.

Ah yes it works now. Thanks.

Ok, some people mentioned to me that the newmessage icons didn't stand out enough, so I've modified them, as well as changing the sub-forum icons. Hopefully it's less confusing now. I've also added more edit/delete/etc buttons. You probably have to empty your image cache to see them.

 

There are still other changes to come, but it's getting there.

      Finally got my PC back from the shop after my SSD got corrupted a week ago and damaged my motherboard. Scary stuff, but thank goodness it happened right after two months of FM development instead of wiping all my work before I could release it. New SSD, repaired Motherboard and BIOS, and we're ready to start working on my second FM with some added version control in the cloud just to be safe!

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?
