Need suggestions and stuff for my anime forum

[kyle]

I am in the process of creating an anime forum. Not many forums yet those will be coming when the time comes but there is a News and Updates and a Suggestions/Feedback section up, guests can post in S/F forum.

I am planning many things for this forum such as custom anime smilies, custom forum/topic icons, ability to watch dubbed and subbed animes through it, etc etc.

I would like anyone who would like to, to come take a look and to critique/suggest things for my forum. No need to sign up but if you want to ill of course have no complaints

The site is http://www.Animefate.com

Thanks in advance to those who participate xP


Also I have vT workin on some logos atm, I plan to have logos that randomize upon each page load, but until then I need a temp, which of these you guys think would work better??

Logo w/bg...



or

Logo w/o bg...

Site is not loading for me in FF 4
"Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in D:\Hosting\7836098\html\includes\functions.php on line 14"
I like the Second one, but it would have to be on Transparency,

and having a Random Banner each time could be hard, and also slow down load times, atleast I would think it would.

Not really an Anime fan or I would join

I'm a HUGE anime fan

The link doesent open for me either, it just keeps loading and i just get bored and close the window

I tried it with a few Proxies and it didn't work either.
Same error message as above

Use the logo with your new background color in my opinion.
I have Xara 3-D and Xara Graphic Designer if you need any other graphics done in high quality.

Thanks, ill keep it in mind =D, that error is fixed now, had godaddy people switch me to Linux hosting which loads phpbb quicker xP srry bout tht

It works for me atleast in FF 4.0.1
I could help at some parts, i know some coding (css and html) and im quite good with gimp.
But if you need a good web coder, ask Mike!

[kyle]

Itll be kept in mind since I'm not sure when or if ill need someone for coding at any point in time since im not really a good coder person myself O.o

[Willy]

I don't know if Mike knows phpBB, and I sure don't

[Maffe811]

haha
i bet mike wouldnt mind learning some php...

[kyle]

The forums are all built and members can now discuss to their hearts content. The site has also been submitted to google. Please check out the site and tell me what you think

PHPbb is just a administration panel with certain areas that can be modified.You do not need to know PHP to run one.However if you wish to design your own (why you would i do not know there are thousands out there already), then you would need to know PHP.
There are so many PHPbb boards pre-designed out there you couldn't count them all and most are free.
Almost every web-host allows you one and most have one ready to install when you get a host server.(mine did)

Rod has a forum?
I saw the Blog, but forum?

[Rod]

I do but i won't launch it until i am sure it's ready.
