FthrJACK Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 Now would be the time to let us know! what would you like to see most.. wallpaper section? boot screens? what would you like us to have on there for you, be interesting to find out, anything feasable we might just do
piaqt Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 A registry hacks section, possibly in guides. Also a section specifically devoted to changing the UI via system file hacks -- à la VirtualPlastic
Crispy Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 Well, most of the stuff I would have suggested has already been made (or you will make it!) ... But here are some suggestions:[*] That wallpaper section sounds cool ... For uploading wallpapers from our desktop screenies [*] Make a stafflist like this [*] Forget the lame banner idea that you aparently have been toying with! ... Banners = [*] How to configure Trillian to use the MSFN news feeder should be more easy to find on the page... I think many people have a hard time finding out how to add it![*] Maybe create the "MSFN site awards" ??? [*] A MSFN IRC channel maybe?What I could think of at the moment ...
xper Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 Forget the lame banner idea that you aparently have been toying with! ... Banners..and you will pay everything w00t w00t w00t
Crispy Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 ..and you will pay everythingIt wasen't an order, merly a sugestion! If the server costs etc. are too much for ya its of course a good idea to get some banners ... I just don't like the idea!Who is paying anyway?

LongHorn Posted December 4, 2002 Posted December 4, 2002 I can setup a JPilot applet customized for the new MSFN, where you put in username, and it takes em' to the existing IRC Channel.You could get a member here, or find a company, to host an IRC Server, and make a subdomain like irc.msfn.org for a new server. Even a cable/dsl connection serves up to 100 people without lagg
FthrJACK Posted December 4, 2002 Author Posted December 4, 2002 jpilot and irc have been discussed before, we might well do it, we will see. it wont be something we do right away until other parts of site are finished.@crispy, theres only one advert. its for crucial ram, any income generated will be used to pay back some of the cost of the new software and also to hopefully pay lezend some for his commisioning of the design.its not pop ups, (/me stabs) or lots of different ads cluttering up the page, just the same one each time. its pretty needs must at tho moment im afraid, we have never run any ads before, dont think we are going down that path, if it paid off some of the cost of the software and paid lezend some bux too we would have no reason to keep it and we can take it off... so start clicking on it and ordering stuff from crucial lol.i mostly want to open a wallpaper section, themeXP is too much of a pain in the a** to surf now, shame, the site kicks a**, but its server bites.

Aaron Posted December 5, 2002 Posted December 5, 2002 I'd suggest CGI:IRC rather than JPilot.JPilot is an overbloated slow java irc client IMO
gamehead200 Posted December 5, 2002 Posted December 5, 2002 warez... w00t w00t i'm just foolin' with you guys! ummm.....everyone being allowed to post news and if someone posts something stupid they get banned...
FthrJACK Posted December 5, 2002 Author Posted December 5, 2002 everyone can post news. news editors moderate it and think its ok and interesting etc they can spellcheck it and then allow it to show on the main page.howzat?
Crispy Posted December 5, 2002 Posted December 5, 2002 everyone can post news. news editors moderate it and think its ok and interesting etc they can spellcheck it and then allow it to show on the main page.howzat?Sounds ok ... and moderating privileges sounds even better! BTW: What about a Sell / buy hardware forum?
FthrJACK Posted December 5, 2002 Author Posted December 5, 2002 yeah we thought of this before, it wouldnt get used much but people often want to sell something. We would need a disclamer etc for it too.we would also like to run competitions etc, but we will wait and see.
