kick **** forum skin you make that?

The web lay out could use a tiny bit of work (and maybe an alien scheme to :/)
other than that its good

(i suggest a bit more detail on the web lay out)

r3men4nt

Vecdran

Nice! May i suggest you do alien infestation on one half and tsa style blue glowing/logo stuff on the other?

r3men4nt

Suicide_Run: no its not mine I got a friend of mine to give me an old he wasn't using so NO!

should i take that angrily?

also there are some textures in the wads where you can just cut things
out and take the infestation part.

r3men4nt

Suicide_Run: ya well i dont realy want to worry about how the site looks until i get the database and every thing working.

Here's an update on kinda how the site will look(with out the news):

Suicide_Run

much better <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

although the font might look better in bold

nice use of frames though

r3men4nt

Just a little update not much changed added login in top right and finished the news proggie!

Oh yah i also found out my friend was lying he didnt make the forums skin. He got it from a company that was going out of buisness and just edited some of the gfx!

*edit* In case you might have read the news on the image here its no true yet i havent gotten hosting or the domain but i plan to asap */edit*

Suicide_Run

well as i said before the text is overly thin

make it bold or something

r3men4nt

Suicide_Run: I tried making he font bigger and well for:
1. It completly **** up my tables.
2. The font is Verdana and its made to be smaller.
3. I tried 6 other fonts and tried them in bold too and rhey dont seem to look right on the site.

Suicide_Run

I like verdana bold im using it on my site
<a href='http://68.63.134.144/New/' target='_blank'>Link</a>

(havent though of a name for my sight yet and im not done makeing it so you see SITE NAME HERE and no name on the top image :/)

Delarosa

i'de host you, but i would insist on being part of your team in return...i'm making a site of my own (with a two man team)... and well, we are going slowly...as of right now, i've got alotted to me 17 megs... nothing special, but we plan to upgrade our WHOLE system based on traffic...

total webspace: 80 megs (17 alotted to any purpose i deam at the moment)
Total Bandwidth: 2 gigs....

this is RIGHT THIS SECOND..... if we run out of either one, we will upgrade.... so how does it sound...

<a href='http://NS.neotech.cc' target='_blank'>http://NS.neotech.cc</a> ?

send me an e-mail with questions, comment, anything: rose@neotech.cc
you can see a really crappy website made by me through the link in my sig (notice how it's MY personal site... not the company)


----EDIT----
i'de host BOTH of you, i don't really care, awsome sites, BOTH of you

Suicide_Run

<a href='http://icdsoft.com' target='_blank'>http://icdsoft.com</a>

I just want to finish it first

r3men4nt

Trust me you'll both wnat to checkout orphus.net they offer very good hosting for extremnely cheap prices

<a href='http://www.orphus.net/?page=bh_all' target='_blank'>http://www.orphus.net/?page=bh_all</a>

Basic package :1.25BG of space, 25GB bandwidth, free setup

Suicide_Run

are they freaking serious <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

the only problem is that domains dont come with the package
you have to get it seperate

r3men4nt

ya subdomains arent inclded on the lite account but they are on all others

Suicide_Run

blahblahblah.net or etcetcetc.com

At least type the right thing then!

Suicide_Run

what are you talking about? i said domains

Delarosa

$5.00 a month, isn't too bad, for something that nice, but then again, i was offering it for free, but ohh well...

r3men4nt

ya but youre only had 80 megs and very little badwidth this is alot of space and like 12 times the badwidth and 15times the space for like 60$US a year, its worth it.

Suicide_Run

its worth more than it <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

RoDuS

i got 2 gig of hosting with 20gig traffic so if you want to host a ns site and agree to put a link to my site i'll host you for free. Also im looking for with my site i only have a one man team at the moment. I own nsplayer.com and nsforums.com

r3men4nt

Rodus ill consider it in the mean time im looking to getting my site done first. Also it looks like you need a decent forums skin my friend ill see if i can find you one.

*edit* i searched for a while for phpbb skins and there werent many good ones at all. I'd recomend <a href='http://www.invisionboard.com/switch/index.php?a=phpbbupgrade' target='_blank'>switching to invision board</a> and then if you decide to do that i can provide many links to some very good free skins

Suicide_Run

could you post some of those links? i use ib

RoDuS

r3men4nt, yer i was looking at changing ib cause everyone else seems to use it. I didn't use it at first because i thought you had to pay for it but at a closer look its free <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> which is cool cause free stuff rox.

r3men4nt
