Well, considering my post appeared before yours I'd say I posted before you did :P.

NetDanzr: you could always change the colour-scheme of your site to match this one... Show some loyalty :)

Mr C: What language... tsk tsk tsk :)

In any case, you're a bastard. But at least you admitted it looked gay ;)

Of course it was a good suggestion, it was mine :D (damn, I'm getting way to much confidence... can never be good :))

Never! I'm not saying Mr Creosote's design is bad (after all, I designed his logo), but it doesn not serve the purpose of a site that has many more screenshots and longer reviews :P.

Well, if you want to give me a 1GB of space, I can put mine online, too :P.

Even then you wouldn't be able to do it because you're not crazy enough to hardcode all the html for it :P

That's true. I'd also have to unzip all images and convert them from .bmp to either .jpg or .gif...

Batch upzipping and converting can all be done with small tools. Just like screenshots can easily be displayed with a three-liner script which just takes the file names directly out of a directory :D

Did I already tell you a few people complained to me because their browsers (Lynx) didn't support .php? ;)

I bet it's not a problem with the php format, but with header forwarding - which is html :P

Actually, I remember when I used Lynx, I could not access .php, .asp and other weird-sounding pages...

Well, but what did the Lynx users want with your downloads anyway?

I used Lynx on Windows 95. Small and fast, and if there weren't so many .asp and .php pages floating around these days, chances are I'd still be using it :).

Attachments now huh? Good addition. Now if we just had a better color theme.... User-selectable skins would definitely be the best way to go. In the meantime, what about a chrome/silver and wood theme, thereby combining the wood look of goodoldays with the more modern look of 21stcentury?

Will Vbulletin styles work on this board? If so, I can whip up some on my board and export them. You can also checkout what styles I already have here- http://members.lycos.co.uk/cypherswipe/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=158 "steel plated" and style #14 are pretty popular.

User selectable skins are the least of my priorities at the moment because I think it shouldn't be that hard to come up with something everybody can live with. I mean, come on - it's just a bunch of colours! ;)

As a general rule, this script only supports colour schemes which are either "light background-dark text" or "dark background - light text". Not mixed (e.g. "some light background, some dark - mixed fonts" ). vBulletin styles will of course not work and will never because I won't support any pay software.
