My 2.03 - Review it?

[Joe]

Woo! I upgraded! I edited a total of 67 templates for this upgrade, insane... Anyhow, if you have a min or two please check out my new look, anything i should edit / change? Can somebody take a screen shot of my forums in netscape (4.7 and/or 6.x?) and post it here? I dont dare install netscape on my computer again

I'm lovin' it! Very smooth and clean. Congrats on the upgrade. How funny, I just now finished my upgrade from 2.0.0 to 2.0.3. I had some templates to revert, as well, took me a total of one and a half hours, minus adding back all my hacks. Feels good, doesn't it? Oh, and I don't have Netscape, just Mozilla.

Im still on 2.0.0. If I goto 2.0.3, with 1 hack. Will it take me a lng time to update everything?

Fred,

To transfer hacks easily from one version to the next, use Beyond Compare - http://www.scootersoftware.com

It does a side by side comparison of files and you can with a push of a button transfer the text of another to the other updated version of the file.

I use it all the time.

cool

thanks

Nice site

Very nice site!

The only thing you might want to change is where you have Not cookied? and the login script below it. It seems to be leaving a large blank area on my IE 5 browser to the the right of it. Perhaps move it up into the blue portion just under calender-members somehow??? This would move the whole forum up an inch or so and remove that blank space for new visitors. Otherwise it looks very compact and great.

[Joe]

Thanks handheld, I'll do that tonite, im sure it will give the forums a cleaner look for my guest users

[handheld234]

Me too

Since I mentioned that, I checked my site and I need to do the same thing [move the login].

Anyway, glad I could help.

Hmm..... Looks a bit like Overgrows forums

[Joe]

Yah, i admit i got a bit of the header style idea's from overgrow. But decided to only go with this setup after i saw http://www.wininformant.com/ . I actualy emailed overgrow to get a bid on a header design, i couldnt afford the $500.00 min charge

So you asked permission, couldn't afford the answer and decided to do it anyways cause someone else was doing it, not knowing whether action is being taken against them or they paid for it?
