I believe that this board is lacking just one thing... CREDIBILITY.

Where art thou Champion of Dougs?

I didn't read through any of this thread so forgive me if this has been discussed already. My only suggestion:

Please turn the colors to black background with white or grey text. Staring at a bright background for a long time makes me feel like I just got done staring at the sun.

Would make it look like SMN, but I agree. More responses per page, dillinger logo,wider, darker, harder, better, faster, stronger.

Meh, I wouldn't worry about that. We could say it matches the colors of the DEP myspace page. And yeah, more posts per page!

So I just discovered that if you click the phrase "The Dillinger Escape Plan" on the Board Index page, It shows you all the threads contained in the 6 subforums. Very Cool. Can we have that option for the 5 categories under the subheading "Forum" ? Or better yet, a button that shows all the threads in The Running Board? A lot of people are unhappy with the navigation of so many subgroups, and I think this would help to alleviate the issue.

I think we would need to get Dillinger's approval to post their logo on here cause that is like an official endorsement and directly ties this forum to them. Just a thought.

And I agree with more posts per page.

I doubt they are that anal about something like that.

But I agree, some darker colours and possible wider forum... or just make it fluid so it auto fits your screen.

regarding forum layout: We've got some people working on it (i'm pretty sure Adrian got around to messaging them, right dude?) cause it's a fucking CSS stylesheet thing. So unless you people speak code, be patient.

Another minor issue: when I click hyper-links in this site, the new page replaces the forum rather than opening the link in a new tab. I'm using firefox. The problem is easily remedied by right-clicking to "open link in new window" but I keep forgetting to do that.

What about something like this ?

Free and couldn't be easier to setup, add custom banner and we got a pretty good looking forum.

Even easier, click on your scroll wheel thing on your mouse.

I'm for it.

Also, for anyone who is irritated by all the subforums and has not discovered how to get around them, just make the following URL your default page for the forum: http://www.spreadinglikewings.com/forum ... ive_topics
