Post your ideas/feedback for the Charas overhaul

Apparently people still use ICQ, which is the most amazing thing to me, because ICQ was what I was using to talk to El_Presidente, as we would set up games of Diablo 1 over modem, where we had to insert each other's phone number to join up.

ICQ PREDATES BATTLE.NET. AND EVERYTHING.

But yeah as I'm sure a lot of you noticed, MSN died recently.

Oh, did it?

Oh, did it?

It did, but it's still around a bit longer.

About updates, a thing I miss here is some kinf of color alternation on forum posts: the username on the left is really the only thing to determine a new post begins, but it's visually so hard to distinguish top post's signature from next post's beginning.
I general I'd say I agree 98% with Grandy's post above.

Hey, the big man mentioned my name. W-what is this hot feeling inside my chest? Is this... is this love?

[Archem]

No, it's a tumor. Call a doctor.

Glad to see there is interest in the site's revival

You have no idea how heartening it is to come back to this site now and again and find it still functional.

When the internet isn't loading my normal sites and I want to find out if it's the sites or my internet connection, this is the site I type in to check.  I have had the URL memorized since college (over a decade).  I still think fondly of this site and my time here even though I've largely moved on to the Minecraft forums.  I would be devastated to come back here and find it gone like so many other sites the world has lost over the years.

There is so much potential in a site like this, and it's not just tied down to one particular game engine.  Heck, you can use these graphics to evoke one of my favorite graphical styles (SNES-era retro) in just about any game engine if you cared to.  Or game "screenshots" even if not from actual games... or webcomics... actual games aren't the only thing they're good for.

Should I ever get back to making hobby games, I'm sure I'll come back here to find the resources I need, or even some tutorials.  And since I'm trying to teach my nephew (9) how to program, and since we'll soon be getting a Raspberry Pi and I hope to be teaching him how to hack ROMs, I'm pretty sure we'll drop by to find neat things to stick into old games, if only to get a laugh.

So if you guys have plans to make this site more functional for people from all walks of gaming, then I'm all for that, and I look forward to the results.  Thank you for keeping this site going long after its heyday.

Just fix this layout. Oh god, what is this.

[Dr. Ace]

Please tell me there's been ANY progress on the layout.

Dick, come back.

[ZeroKirbyX]

Dick, come back.

You can't make me.

[Archem]

Wanna bet?

Please tell me there's been ANY progress on the layout.

Haha there is. I thought just redoing the CSS would be enough for the forums, but it appears the HTML doesn't have the right sections and divs for what I want to accomplish. I'm trying to redo the actual forum template (which is done with a system I'm not familiar with) in order to get around it, so progress is happening, just not very fast.

You can't take away our incest.
