THIS FORUM IS FANTASTIC!

[baybus70]

OK, id like some support here!this forum (or the ppl on it) has done so much to help me and my bus. Been on others and found people with either no sense of humour or not interested in what your doin as your thread dissapears after 5 mins.This is very cosy and just what i need after a 12 hour day at work! Cheers Mike and all of the regular contributors!

This is one of the best forum's around...... 8) 8)

Great people, all very friendly and knowledgable, no snobbery on here! And family friendly too, some forums are just too aggressive and 'you can be in my gang' for my liking, who needs that eh? The whole point of owning a VW is to be chilled.....

And whilst I'm here, a big THANK YOU to Mike for setting up the new forum, let's not forget peeps that he does it all in his own time, for no financial gain....easy for people to sit on the fence and criticise, but trust me when you work full time, have a family, and are trying to keep your bus on the road :roll: , spare time is a very precious thing :roll:

keep up the good work matey..... :wink:

My only gripe is that its hard to see which threads have new posts in them..

otherwise.. IT'S FANTASTIC!

I have the same problem

there are 2 stylesets that bundle with phpBB3 "Prosilver" and "Subsilver2", subsilver 2 has the same icons as the old forum, maybe if mike changed the style to this is would be easier to navigate??

We have a couple of designers.... raise your hands? they could redesign each of the icons to suit Mike? there are around 37 different icons in total for posts. we have changed a few of ours like this http://www.nboc.org.uk (sorry for the shameless plug) but it works well.

I've bundled the forum icons in a .zip If any of the designers want a pop at changing them. You can download forum icons from this link FORUM ICONS (dont change file names)

absolutely agree with this guys - i had noticed the same thing, and yes it would be nice to go with some custom icons for this, so yes if anyone if up for designing some (even if its just 3 or 4 to differentiate the new posts etc. )

best forum out there - i dont bother with JK these days as there is too much non-VW soapbox stuff

i even fitted my sticker as well to the camper

 

[kempy]

Well done Mike, much appreciated

 

[dagboyblue]

nice one - glad its up and running 100%

i was getting withdrawal symtoms :lol:

 

[giraffeinbath]

Not had a chance to get on and have a look around much over the last couple of days, good to have the forum back though. When vzi and JK went down I didn't miss them at all, when EarlyBay went pear shaped last week work just wasn't the same!

Hey Mike, I assume that the phpBB logo in the top left can be changed, if Speedman69 agrees I think that picture he took at the Volksworld show looking across the noses of the bays would be a great image to use, make the place feel a lot more homely :mrgreen:

Great! Could cause a divorce though.

Just messing around with the slook sticker idea and speedmans image to make some quick header ideas ....

this should replace the site_logo.gif file (i think) and match with the banner.
