I know I've been here for a whole 5 minutes. I just want to suggest to subforum some categories. It's cleaner and more perfessional.

I also want to point out that descriptions should be put on in every forum. There should also be an archive for old/inactive forums.

That is my suggestions to you guys. I'm sorry if I put this in the wrong forum. I couldn't find a suggestion box.

We will get right on that, it should be perfessional.

I agree though. There are some things that could be done to make this forum more presentable to outsiders.

It works great as-is, but it's not the best looking forum I've ever been on.

It may not be the best looking, but it is easier on the eyes than some I've seen!

Okay Monkey, I'll agree with you there. It is good looking (like the darker background, and the limitation to just a few colors), and classy (no obnoxious animations and blinking lights), but it's also extremely simple. There is really not a lot to it. No real options and features turned on. Which works in it's favor in some sense, but also works against it in others.

The problem with that is changing the software, and nobody who actually uses the forums can do that. When I have some free time next month, I'm going to try to streamline a few things, but right now, it's hit and miss, so I feel I need to leave better enough alone.

No, no. I don't want anything to do with the software. Everything's fine. It's just the forums order that makes it long. Subforums are perfessional and very easy if you add a link in the description. For instance, this could be the order:

I like it the way it is please don't change it.

I like everything the way it is.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

If you'll note the forums are organized currently in the way Frenchie described..

I like to see us switch to one huge free-for-all thread.
