amazed by how nice this forum looks

[lavalevel]

Time kiss up to whomever laid this site out. It is EXTREMELY beautiful. I have know idea how to modify a phpBB to look this good, and whoever did it should get an award and drive a corvette! serious!

Thank you! Regular forum artist, Linflas, did the current skin, based on an earlier one that I did many years ago. We've actually had several versions of the forum over the years and have been going since around 1999-2000 in various forms....

[lavalevel]

well then you should be driving a camaro at least.

hmmm...
I found some older captures...

The first page is a slightly older version of the blurb page on the root dm.com, and the second page is actually the default subsilver of phpbb3 - you can actually select it on the control panel if you wanted to, I think!

Edit@ Opps, I meant that vice-versa!

Well, a VW Beetle would be enough, perhaps?

[Gambit37]

Ha, wow, I didn't realise we'd had the main homepage looking so grey for so long. I've been meaning to do a whole new skin for the top level welcome page of the site, but real life keeps getting in the way...

[linflas]

Well thanks a lot ! That is the one and only skin i've ever made and was a good but hard tutorial to learn css ! I'm not a professional graphician by the way, it's just a bad habit

Now I don't know if it's a change in my browser or on these forums but today I've noticed that in Firefox a small Firestaff icon is displayed on the tab's... urmmm... how do you call it... upper part (next to the Dungeon-Master.com.... text). I haven't noticed it before so it's either new or I'm dumb. Looks very cool anyway. Whoever is responsible for this, thank you and well done!

[oh_brother]

I just noticed that this morning too. So it must be new!

[Gambit37]

Ha ha, nice, I wondered if anyone would notice. I added it last night when I was doing the similar thing for the Arcodea site, I noticed this forum didn't have one

[Jan]

Am I going to receive any medal or reward for being the first this time? (*looks importantly towards OhBrother*)

[Gambit37]

There can't be *any* medal greater than "Mighty Pirate", surely?

[linflas]

amazing ! i love it

[beowuuf]

Ah, I too noticed it this morning and I too wondered if it had always been like that and only just noticed

Cool little addition One thta sadly hasn't updated to my work browser cache yet

[Gambit37]

You may need to empty your browser cache for it to load the new icon.

[ChristopheF]

Nice and welcome addition!

[zoom]

it´s a nice addition

[Ameena]

Ahh, when I was here this morning I wondered what you guys were talking about...but I can see it too now - cool .

[MasterWuuf]

I've noticed a few of the changes myself, over the past year or so?

I noticed the ?Firestaff? just after it was added.

As much as I've enjoyed getting to know all of you, I hang my head in shame for not being considerate enough to express my own appreciation
for the work that has gone into this site.

A belated thank you, MW

it's funny, I saw the firestaff and thought .. "oh that must have always been there" .. As it felt so natural. Good job
