Sexy new digs. Great job to Yop, Staff, and everyone involved.

This new forum is too beautiful, I feel unworthy of it.

 

[T@ctic]

omg you guys i freaking love the PC site even more

makes me kinda sad the previous members could experience this total awesomeness

 

[Ghost X]

Thanks . *shovels piles of positive reinforcement*

Also, I think folks should check their settings (privacy, etc), and update them to one's own preferences, if you haven't done so already .

 

[Ami]

Congrats and well done on the hard work, guys. The site is looking very nice!

 

[Ite]

No.

But feel free to go look at it any time: https://thelifestream.net/oldforums/

 

[Strangelove]

omg i can finally start saying 'don't @ me' on this forum.

@Tetsujin I know you were having that issue with the banner repeating underneath, still a problem?

I'm going to create various child themes with different banners soon, then you'll be able to mess around with them and we can see what works (and people can pick what they like too). I also wanted to make a "TLS Light" theme for weirdos who prefer light eye-destroying colour schemes.

Theme picker is at the bottom left of every page btw guys. There's only the default XF and default TLS for now. I won't be making any drastic ones (like "purple" or whatever), just maybe some different banners and a light theme. MAYBE

um, well, i actually liked "the lifestream blue" and used it a couple months before the switch (mostly because i had just found out you can change themes....). just saying though

 

[Ite]

Likes, no Thanks? No thanks!

 

[Lex]

I mean, we COULD look at changing the like icon and text to a thanks cookie monster, but that's something to think about in future (customised buttons). I'm ok with it but really it's best to get used to the more generic styles to avoid issues with further upgrades to XF.

There's also an easy plugin to do something similar to what facebook/ discord do, where you can react with specific emoji rather than just "liking" a post. All stuff to consider.

 

[Cthulhu]

@Lex I thought we were going to not make a fuckton of themes? I mean do whatever you want but I'm not going to maintain them, lol

 

[Lex]

No definitely not making a fuckton of anything

Whatever is made will be a carbon copy of the default with minor adjustments, like the background image on the banner. Only the default was maintained on vBulletin TLS anyway so there's legit no point making different themes.

The only thing I'm suggesting is maybe doing a light theme if people want it, but even that I'd rather avoid. Other theme choices would just be for a different banner image at this point (and they'd all be children of this theme, so any global changes to this one would apply to them).

And by "COULD," he of course means, "MUST."

 

[Strangelove]

Could you at least make the hand into the Cookie Monster hand, if not the whole icon (which might be too large to neatly shrink down)?

 

[Kionae]

NEW FORUM!!!!

 

[pxp]

Thanks for all your hard works guys!

 

[Channy]

Hey it’s mobile friendly too, way to go gaiz

 

[trash panda]

I've been here way more than usual today. I can't stay away. Possibly a result of too much sexiness.
