@PT: The text size for your content is way too small, and you should not use tables.
Aside from that, it's good.

@wondergirl: That's a pretty terrible forum skin. In fact, there is barely any flow in the theme, and those post status indicators look distracting. They should be subtle so it doesn't stick out.

WonderGirl February 20th, 2010 9:58 AM

hm what colors do u think i should use? and what do u mean about the post status?

Faltzer February 20th, 2010 10:07 AM

If you are going for the snowy color scheme, keep it at that. Try making the "no new post"/"new post" icons around the color; going from white/blue to orange and then pick at random intervals is obnoxious.

WonderGirl February 20th, 2010 10:15 AM

Yes I know I've had a bit of trouble with the graphics at that site. But the thing is, I suck at making buttons and I can't find someone to do them for me. And I don't have time to search and ask :/

Pokemon Valley: I don't mind the table use, I just feel like they're too close together for my taste :x

WonderGirl March 2nd, 2010 8:18 AM

hey guys, im back. i made a new skin for my forum: http://pokenaruto.forumotion.com/
i know that the buttons for new, no new and lock still dont match with the forum colours that well, but ill try to change them as soon as possible.
what do you guys think of the new skin? oh yea and i also put pokemon and naruto shippuuden eps in japanese subbed in english, that way ill get more ppl to come to my forum. i might also put the manga soon.

pokejungle March 2nd, 2010 10:45 AM

I dunno if naruto/pokemon is really a winning combo for a forum :S

It's... kind of illegal to spread copyrighted material. You do know that, right? D:

WonderGirl March 3rd, 2010 5:39 AM

yes, i do. but most sites put that, and anyway as you can see my forum isnt that popular ^_^
and i think pokemon/naruto combo actually does work.

aRedMoon March 4th, 2010 9:53 PM

Uhm... it's still illegal. End of story, yo.

edit: oh... my name got changed. o.o

pokejungle March 5th, 2010 12:22 AM

lol, lets not get fiesty now greg. All of that questionable adult material you downloaded from torrents for me wasn't exactly legal either. ;)

aRedMoon March 5th, 2010 4:41 AM

(I thought we agreed not to talk about that in a public place?!?!)


Also, new ava is hot. :)

And some of them get the ban hammer cause they break the ToS with their host.

WonderGirl March 5th, 2010 8:03 AM

meh :/ that sucks
well what can i do attract ppl then?

aRedMoon March 5th, 2010 10:54 AM

You gotta come up with something unique. It's uniqueness that keeps those people coming back, and new people coming.

WonderGirl March 5th, 2010 11:36 AM

yeah, i deleted the episodes. im still thinking about something unique

aRedMoon March 5th, 2010 2:09 PM

It's not something that comes in a day :P

Unique could be a fun forum organization (some places run an RPG style organization), it might be your community in general (the people here vs those at SPPf? no question).

It could be content you provide - killer game guides or something. Or maybe you're able to score interviews.

It's that sort of stuff that lets a website shine.

{or illegally fansubbed videos that you make ;)}

pokejungle March 5th, 2010 10:53 PM

avatar is pedobearish greg.

Attracting ppl? Give out free money. Works pretty well. Hold a contest. Advertise. Get affiliates. :D

WonderGirl March 6th, 2010 1:31 AM

Ah yes, affiliates! I forgot to mention that my affy button isn't finished yet xD but I know many sites to affy with.
