Hey there! I hope you like the new forums, note that these are only in the BETA stages and the forums are going to be different once modified. The forums will be down for a short while whilst editing is made and after the update, The forums should be out of BETA mode! I made this thread for any decorative suggestions for the forums. NOTE that these forums are a little tricky to work with at the current moment but changes will be made as well as possible.
Hand in your suggestions in this thread and I will look forward to seeing a reply! Thanks for your interest in reading this.

the reason I chose these forums, mainly are because of the forum ratings with the stars ect. I also chose them because of the simplicity, I know the forums have a lot of work to be done to them but it will be sorted completely soon. The main thing I am looking to doing is create a new background that suits the setting.
I am hoping that these forums can increase in popularity too but I need to do a lot of work to these first.

1. I like the concept of the ranking system.
2. Change the dull white background to another color such as light grey , darker white or light green.
3. I AM NOT NEW TO THE ISLAND ONLY THESE FORUMS SO SORRY FOR THE CAPITAL LETTERS.

Can you look at increasing the characters / letters a fraction, also the writing style on the word Moderator (could be Italic) it is a bit harsh on the eyes for me (not sure what others think)
Other then that they are nice and easy to navigate around.

I think these forums are alot better and more proffesional than the last, probrably easier to maintain aswell. I think all we need to do is get the the news out that there is a new forum on the front page because were getting alot of visitors but not alot of sign-ups and we need them for forums to work. when it starts building up, im sure it will flourish

Sounds like a neat Idea there soldier. There is one thing first, The poll that decides whether we stay with these forums or whether we go back to the old ones.

The only issues with these new forums at the moment are:-
- Advertisements - Separate Sign Up - Little Bland at the moment
The positives of these new forums are:-
- More administrator Tools - More to do with the forums - Easier to navigate through
