Premium Membership/New Board Features in the works...

[ekool]

Okay... I'm working on the premium membership features and other board features for regular users right now. I'm going to update this thread with the current status of things.

We upgraded the forum and changed the skin layout just a little bit, this affects all users. If you notice any problems, please let me know.

For those of you who use the "New Posts" feature, its under the "Quick Links" option in the navbar now.

For those of you who havent used it, please try out the "Active Topics" link, you may find it useful.


New Features:

Photo Gallery - I have setup the photo gallery for ALL users, not just Premium members. However, premium members will get more storage, here's how it breaks down.

Basic User - 3MB of storage, and no ability to create seperate "albums"

Premium User - 40MB of storage, and the ability to create seperate albums.

The Photo Gallery can be accessed by clicking on the "Quick Links" menu, and at the bottom choose "Photo Gallery"

Or, at this direct URL: http://www.titantalk.com/gallery/


Thats all for now, but we are working on more features and will update this thread with the status.

Awesome ekool, I just tried it out. I noticed a little problem though. Go to the members gallery and look at the linked names of the albumns. The link color is the same color as the cell color, sorta hard to read. Just thought I'd let you know, otherwise good deal.

Wow I'm having a hard time fixing that tiny little bugger....

Still working on it

[ekool]

Yay, fixed.

Nice job, I like the new theme as well. Maybe you could make the reply/quote/edit buttons a little easier to read/notice. I also noticed you had added watermarks to the images, so I guess hotlinking is allowed (free advertisement )?

Tried it with a few of my baby. Nice ekool, very nice!

[Sammy Sandbag]

Well, I think I liked it better before you went with the lighter blue and yellow. Just a personal opinion, but I like the darker blue and white scheme.

I havent settled on anything just yet... but how do you like the dark blue/grey scheme?

[ekool]

I'm testing the premium user setup on a couple people as well, so you may notice a few people with that on the forums... dont be alarmed.

Yeah, after the third or so change I figured you were playing with it. Yes I like the grey much better than the light blue. Looking good.

I also noticed you have it set so our own member name is bolded in the view topic. Perhaps a little too bold.

Way cool. Where/how do we get the membership?

[ekool]

Mike,

The membership isnt quite ready yet, I'm still adding features and doing testing. However, the gallery is open to everyone (in a limited fashion) -- so feel free to test it out.
