I like the cleanness of SMF much better then any other. :)
And like a fool I believed myself, and thought I was somebody else...

Yeah, definitely SMF, I've got it installed, now the slow process of finding or getting someone to make a theme, and finding a nice layout for the boards.

Until I can find a WoW theme, I found a pretty clean theme I think I am going to use called Themis

Please feel free to make suggestions on boards, layouts, themes, or anything you can think of, it helps me find out what everyone would like to see.

There should probably be boards for quests, each class, instances, etc.

I think following the WoW forum structure (on Blizzard's website) would be pretty helpful here.  Just throw in some of your own ideas, hehe :)

I've tossed together a set of forums to show the basic layout of what I was thinking of doing, I would like to add a board for professions also, among a couple more misc. boards I've got in mind. Tell me what you think of the layout.

Come on people help out! :P

lol...

I've been looking for a theme for the forums ( SMF ), should we go: Dark, Light, Colored ( Red, Green, Blue, etc. ) or try and find a WoW theme?

Personally, I really like the default theme on these boards (Mercury, I think it's called). I'd vote for it or a WoW theme. That's just me, though :)

I don't really like mercury. I'm using TechHead, right now, personally.

I would love to join a forum about wow for tech support and all that goodness. Anyways I would love to help you moderator and get codes to help you out. I suggest a IPB becuase there more user friendly then most boards. Dont get a php they suck balls.

Personally, I think SMF's the best one I've used.

That's a nice, clean skin, yet its too bright. I'd rather use a black-based skin than a white-based.


Time for me to throw in a personal suggestion. vL's old skin. Not the new image-based one. I don't know if they did that theirself, but its exactly what I was saying earlier, a black-based version of the SMF skin.

I'll see what I can do about getting the skin files from them.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

Who thinks it should be a dark, and who thinks it should be a light?

You know my opinion. Dark.

However, you know you can have more than one skin so that everyone's happy, right? I think you should have a dark SMF skin and a light (default) SMF skin.
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

Dark. Make it an option though (be able to be changed for the user).

Will do, I'll grab a couple light and dark themes and install them.

[Update] Both the Alliance and Horde based boards are up, and the professions board is up!

A few suggestions:

 -- Night Elves' Tree -> Night Elves' Forest
 -- Dwarves' Cave -> Dwarves' Pub

Even though I don't play World of Warcraft, I can manage SMF forums pretty well.

If you need an administrator/moderator, I'm the man to go to!

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

-- Humans Castle -> Humans Kingdom

That's a nice, clean skin, yet its too bright. I'd rather use a black-based skin than a white-based.

I was talking about the forum software, not the skin...

Board names have been updated and themes installed.

[EDIT] Newby: Any idea why Sidoh's song stream won't show full size?
