Board Layout Suggestions
Wish that the text was bigger? Don't like the color scheme? Think that this board looks like a piece of !@#$? Say so here!
Of course, also give suggestions as to how I could make it better.

Re: Board Layout Suggestions
Going from what I've found in the merger topics that were posted on /tg/ and /diy/ I feel it would be beneficial to add certain things.
• A 'manifesto' or a detailed summary of what [we're] trying to do or accomplish. quote: Quoth Anon:
"Just looks like a bit of a circlejerk of ideas with little cohesion at the moment."
We need to define what exactly it is we're doing clearly to newcomers in a reasonable, concise, and intelligent fashion. I will make an attempt in beginning a manifesto, but I require everyone's input on this matter because of the simple fact this is a group effort.
• We need to address a number of practical concerns put forth by both the denizens of /diy/ and /tg/, which I will probably relegate to a separate thread for relevancy's sake unless otherwise requested.
/diy/ is probably not going to be much help to us. While they do bring up a considerable amount of relevant and realistic concerns, they're presently much too obsessed in measuring one another's cocks and waving said cocks directly at us.

Re: Board Layout Suggestions
Dunno if this is the right place for this (or if it has already been suggested (or if it is even possible with this board software)), but here goes:
How about some prominent one-liner links?
Stuff like:
"Ultimate Goal: blah"
"Currently working on: (list of links)"
"Activities/tasks completed: (another short list e.g. "dudeguy visited prospective location L and posted pics, click here to see the thread")"
"Things you can do right now: (another short list)"

I think I know what you mean. Thanks for the suggestion, I'm going to implement this as soon as I can.

Re: Board Layout Suggestions
Stexem, the engine that this board uses is, so to say, a piece of crap. The looks are bad, the overall feel is just sad and empty. The mechanics of this content management system are very poor. Change it. There are plenty of free or cheap cms's like vBulletin, phpbb and so on.

Admittedly, I have to agree. Still, I don't think that we need a new forum just yet. I'll probably make one in a few days - unless you (or someone else) wants to make the new one?
BTW, although this might not be the best place to ask: why is there a random string of numbers and letters after each of your posts?

Re: Board Layout Suggestions
I would like to change the cms, but I need to keep in touch with you (or other admins). I will need access to the ftp servers and so on.
Figure it out, to answer your second question. Hint: debase64.
