Hey Richard & all!
I like this board n all but it's kinda old-fashioned and about time for a php-board with avatars, smilies and other cool stuff! link
greetz!
Avatars, are overated and slow down page loads.
This message board is great as it is, at least you can concentrate on what people write rather than wait for an 80k image to finish downloading.
besides, who wants the board cluttering up with - whose stool sample smelled the best? polls
I think keep the same type board - the smileys would only get out of hand. Its good enough doing this :-)
The only thing I would suggest is a new design to go with the new front page...
Yeah keep it as it is.
Other than those annoying avatars and smilies there's also those never ending nested quotes that really **** me off on QOL, especially when they include embedded images.
FFS, why duplicate the slowdown!
Are you guys on modems? Is that why you don't want them?
But if you get the option to not view them in an options setup screen, you'll not be bothered by them. While others can have them on. Sounds like a solution to me.
Peace,
Adam.
