well, let me tell you about how much it sucks, just kidding.

i love this site. i recieved some good help with a depreciation script for my website, that got me started in the right direction.

this is by far the most well developed forum for webmasters, and it is very focused and deliberate. i also appreciate the admin doing a good job at kreeping it fresh and clean.

i personally don't like the dark colors, but that just comes down to personal preference. very very nice site.

another i use for my site is Niphal (http://www.niphal.com/), another very good one, but less focused than this, as they have a more overall mission for sites.

thanks ozzu

Yeah it seems like there are many people who say the same thing. The highest complaint I get from people is that they do not like dark colors. Everybody is always for the light colors. I am thinking about giving Ozzu visitors a choice to select between two types of design layouts for Ozzu which they would simply select in their preferences section. So for the people who like dark backgrounds they can keep this, and then for the people who like light backgrounds they can pick the alternative. Anyway thanks for the feedback :)

I like ozzu for a lot reasons, and probably too many to name. All that
being said, I'd like to list the few things that I'd like to see changed.

1. too many topics on the main page, but I think we're working on that.

2. the dark colors were cool at first, but really have grown old on me.

3. you need a REAL LOGO not just some words. I can help you out with
that. :wink:

4. can we fix the table size to a pixel width?

I really like the content and the direction of the board. It's a great place
to be and come for help. Thanks for making it!

Sure if anybody wants to offer a better logo just let me know what you got for it! I haven't put much time into that as you can see.

Great Idea I may have to do that, and as people submit Ideas I can make so that anybody can vote for their favorite, and then maybe at the end I will select the highest rated one and award a prize.

we all agree GIA, and so do many more. Bigwebmaster's working on
getting alternate themes that each visitor can choose from their profile.

Just give the big guy a chance, ok?








pssst, bigwebmaster....

Just so you realize, many people like this theme however, I have had people asking me where they can download this them because they want it for themselves.

Anyway everybody has their likes and dislikes. Some people hate dark themes while others hate light themes, and while others just like a particular style. Anyway I do plan on importing other themes so that forum members can choose exactly what style they like best. Give me some time though! :agrue:

sorry, i didn't "we all" to be everyone on the forum. Just a
generalization to lead into my point of patience. I'm fine with the theme,
I promise. :D

I know this thread is probably old, but I'm on a surfing/Reviewing spree here, and I just wanna let you know what I think.

I actually like nor dislike the colors, I know some people don't like certain colors, but I guess if I can read a site (which I can read this one)

and if the site does not cause temporary blindness (for example super bright colors) I will continue to visit a site.

I think the colors balance well and compliment the ease of use of this Forum. That brings me to my next comment...

I have been to a great many Forums in my web surfing days, probably more than I should have wasted my time on, I could have used my time in a better capacity. An I have got to say that this one is really one of the top Forums I have seen. I spent a lot of time reading on here last night while I was waiting for my activation e-mail, and I really found out how to use the Forum in a short time, and I feel like this Atmosphere is a really positive one with a couple of stragglers :) LOL

I like how the rules are prominently posted and are adhered to here, and I especially like how valuable the information all the posters have provided to everyone here.

The Forum is very user friendly and I really enjoy coming back!

on design wise, id say any good one good with graphics and some knowledge of how to upload forums could do this site. i think that as this place hosts a range of expert designers, why havent you treated them and made this fully customized phpBB for the webmasters forum. as for content, i give it a 9/10 because its very helpfull.

compare this website with this one, http://www.alliedassault.com/phpBB2/ and i think you will be suprised! i have to say out of my forum experience, you need to put more categories into one. make it more chat based and not in the extream of specific, ie webmasters chat > java > pop up box chat, lol... we dont want to see extreame specific. maybe sometime you can make it a little smaller than it is. and create more of a homely feel.
