Hi everybody!
The Request.
Although this is an english speaking community and most of you don't understand german, i would like to hear your opinion about my forumstyle.
Working for a long time on a project can make one loose perspective.
So please just judge the style not the content. There is not much yet anyway.
What is it about?
A virtual nation is like a rpg. You design a state/country and play all its facets on a forum, blog or even mailing lists.
The german community is quite big and has chosen forums for standard communication platform. Every state/country has it's own forum.
My virtual "Republic Gemedeth" is quite new an not yet introduced to the coummunity.
What is my intention?
My intention is to create a style that would give an oldish impression with a modern touch (a mix of the 1920ies to 1950ies + present).
Which plugins do i use?
At the moment i installed the following ones (some heavily modified to fit my needs)
- Awards
- Custom User Permissions
- Default Profile
- Show the users that has been online today
- Page Manager
- Profile Buddies
- Profile Comments
- Profile View Counter
- reCAPTCHA Plugin
- last 4 Posts in header
- XThreads
- Account Switcher
What else?
Not knowing prototype well, i use JQuery for hover and dropdown effets.
I'm also planning to write a group/teams/social plugin to allow users create own groups (eg for parties, guilds, companies).
Please do not hold back your criticism and give me feedback.
