Oh I wholeheartedly agree. :-D

Who's in charge of managing the front page anyhow?

Fix up the front page so that people will want to visit and the czars will feel more obligation to keep the content up to date.


I used art from members here to make a background, made mock ups and even edited the css so they could put it in easily, posted it and never got a response.

Well dang. Let's yell at people until it gets done.

Does anybody know how to make a paragraph break in wordpress? When I preview my articles they always look fine, but once they go up, there's no break.

Where was this? I must have missed it, but if you could link it again I'd be happy to prod Welder into putting it up.

A friendly reminder that the logo I made is also yours to use.

Looks like the new logo is up. It could be enlarged a tad though. I currently have tabs with both the new and old logo up, and the old one is nearly twice the size. The new one is hard to read. The spacing on the thread listings is also messed up now. I assume it's related.

Yeah the thread listing issue was me being dumb (and/or the icon-setting interface in phpbb being confusing), it is fixed now. However, the logo should definitely not look smaller -- well, OK, it is 17px shorter, but significantly wider since all the text is in one line.

Also the front page background is now all fancy; the logo should updated shortly.

Okay, that's pretty cool. Remember to change the favicon on the phpBB pages too, and feel free to change the logo to white on the darker themes so it shows up better.

OK, I think everything is updated now. The favicon might take a few minutes to show up but it's there.

The title bar on the front page is still just white (but with an awesome new logo!) because I can't find anything less plain that keeps it all readable. If anyone's got any ideas... :D

A huge thanks goes out to CKY, LM, and LilyStorm for this! You guys are the best. <3
