Arnie Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 Well it's a new year so I thought I'd see what you guys would like me to do more of, and take advice and ideas on how to improve things for you folks. I know that you're all after a photo gallery, and I'm keeping an eye out for some half decent software to install one, but the major concern is the bandwidth that it may take up. It's not off the cards per-se, it's just something I'm carefully considering an implimentation of Sooo... what are you after? Link to post Share on other sites
Un_FriendlyFire Posted January 3, 2005 Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 (edited) photo gall...oh nope it would appear this site is perfect lol all i can think of is an easier way for users to submit articles and reviews to the articles section Edited January 3, 2005 by Un_FriendlyFire Link to post Share on other sites
Arnie Posted January 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2005 The easiest way to submit stuff is to email it over to me direct Link to post Share on other sites
Marlowe Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Totally oddball suggestion, which is probably horrendous to implement, but perhaps we could have a little global map where members could volunteer to mark their location? Not down to a street level, but perhaps on a general national / perhaps even regional level? I just think it would be interesting to show how varied the membership is on here, and to help organise meetings with players in similar areas who may not post as often as some *ahem* people. As I said just an idea.. Link to post Share on other sites

Arnie Posted January 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Ah, well that I can do quite easily. Lemme see how easy it is to impliment, I've seen someone had written something like that. Edit: Nah it's 500,070 posts Link to post Share on other sites
Asso Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 More reviews would be great. Also, how about a Video section where you could see various airsoft, for example, I've never seen a Classic Army gun video. The video section would only have new videos put by the moderators, etc. I wanna hear how CA's and ICS sound! Haha. Link to post Share on other sites
Longhairedhippy Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 I also like the map idea. It'd also be a great tool for finding other airsofters near you. Link to post Share on other sites
Antagon Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 The map idea sounds awesome. For a photo gallery, maybe implement it so that anyone who wants to display their pics, has to pay a 1 time fee to set up an account? It *IS* like a picture hosting service..

Longhairedhippy Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 i quite agree. I'd do it just to support the site as well as have a place to show off my airsoft pics! Link to post Share on other sites
Marlowe Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 People liked my idea! This must be the first time...EVER I've not had an idea shot down in flames! I'm so happy! *wanders off to cry tears of joy* Link to post Share on other sites
Spedz Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 lol like i said prevously some different themes then the standard ones i'm willing to help to make some Link to post Share on other sites
R22Master Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 I like the map idea too. I also just found some others. I put them in my Personal Note Pad when the new site first opened and they still could do with being added... Tooltips for abbreviations in posts, Change colour of hyperlinks in posts for easier recognition (black just looks like underlined text), Web addresses to auto-hyperlink without the need for "http://", "5 most recent posts" list at top of forum index, A page that predicts the correct lottery numbers for the coming week. Okay, forget the last one, but the others would be really handy. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites
Spedz Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 seems a lot of work arnie need any help? Link to post Share on other sites
Chris P Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 Maybe you could swing a few freebies from suppliers shops for compotitions? Airsoft Interviews? Pick a random forum member who has "x" amount of posts and fire some questions at them. Skirmish site reviews? And cheers for the new Rank Link to post Share on other sites
HaVoC Posted January 4, 2005 Report Share Posted January 4, 2005 (edited) Not interviews, please. I've already had one of them recently NOTE: Actually, that sounds a laugh! Edited January 4, 2005 by HaVoC_MaN Link to post Share on other sites

Marlowe Posted January 5, 2005 Report Share Posted January 5, 2005 Different themes are a nice aesthetic touch. Are they hard to implement? Link to post Share on other sites

Marlowe Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 I think you either ask Arnie very nicely or you get over 500 posts. The second option is what I'm going to do, as I don't like being a pain in the *albartroth*... Link to post Share on other sites
Tripod Posted January 6, 2005 Report Share Posted January 6, 2005 It's in your profile. I dunno if you need 500 posts or not because I didn't even check until I had over 500. Link to post Share on other sites
