How do you make GFX requests? Because I dont see a seperate forum for any of them....

[+ Ryan]

Pretty sure there isn't one. Not sure Mike really wants this to be a GFX requesting type of thing or not. But hey, there may be an addition in the future. Plus, it's a small community right now anyway. Not everything has fully developed.

[//Aneurysm\\]

True. I just want to know if I can make a request in one of the sig forums or something for now....

[+ Ryan]

Right now it's more of a gallery. I'll talk to Mike about some of these additions tomorrow when I get on. He lives like four ahead of me, though. XD

[Andy]

Yeah he really doesnt want to add that.

Well, this could turn into something like the IF Skin Zone, with all the mods, graphics, skins, etc. if we wanted to go in that direction.

So its only to show off GFX?

[Andy]

No its to place Pre-Mades so people can use them.Such as buttons,signatures etc kind of like IF Skin Zone.

[Michael]

The graphic database is to show off pre-made signatures, team icons and such for immediate download by the other staff and administrators whom are gonna be premerlialy visiting this site. It would be nice to be a competitor with IFSZ, but unfortunately i dont think that we can squeeze our way in anyhow, all the major forum services have got huge and popular hack/modification/skinning websites which absorb all the required traffic. I was thinking of having a site which isnt forum software specific and is more generic; providing members with everything they need to become successful and invigorating as a forum administrator.

Except of course with the forum modifications, as they sadly do tend to be much harder to attract attention from coders, but there is always demand; i mean look at SZ thousands of members but they have one or two coders populating their forums at the moment.

IFSZ does need more coders and modders. They have 100,000 members and 99,000 are probably inactive or have less than 10 posts there. That's a rough apporximation, obviously. But it's most likely true. I think it's best to target the kind of people that you know are looking for a forum to express themselves on.

And I think this forum should be about basic foruming in all aspects, from a to z. Everything about it that can help you. Mainly administration. And maybe a sub-objective for computers and technology in general.
