		What changes, new features, or removed features would make silverfoxklan.com more useful? Here are some things I'm thinking of: Revamp the user list, get rid of "ranks" and instead just set it up as "Leadership" and "Members" or the like. Some touch-up work on forums, add RSS feeds for each forum or maybe even per thread Add a text formatter so you don't have to type HTML code Ditch or at least bury k-logs cuz they are kind of useless utilize more screen realestate (the site only takes about 1/3 of my 1900x1600 widescreen... blech) Ditch k-talk because it's also useless Get rid of the clutter ("links" section, code of honor, other random unused stuff) I don't know if/when I'll have time to work on this, but these are just some ideas I have.

		Fix the page numbering on the forum page... cuz there are like a million pages and they all show up instead of just paring it down to a few pages in either direction

		Can I help with any additions/tweaks? I'd like to tackle a possible Kalendar that would allows us to schedule "Game Sessions." It could also be used across multiple platforms: PC, PS3, Wii, etc... I would like the chat feature better if it was more integrated in the parent site. Like click on someone to start a one-on-one chat session with that person. I could even finish the chat program I started a couple of months ago and give it to you and see if you'd like it or not.

		Add more boxes in profile edit to list PSN ID's, etc.

		Delete the spam users. Add folder creation ability in K-Mail. Any of that stuff I'd be glad to help with too.

		When you login, send browser back to location you were just at.

		Fix succeeding ?randomInteger on profile pics so that it reflects the filemtime('userPic'). This way you're not loading the same profile pic every time it appears on page. Saves you the bandwidth/overhead and animated pics carryout at the same time.

		Create or implement an existing library to require CAPTCHA authentication when creating a profile.

		How about I make a new template that is CSS driven with the possibility of additional templates for different gaming genres.... easier updates to the theming.

		That would be awesome. Also... I plan on writing a PSN badge system that is more customizable than some of the big guy systems out there. Is that something you'd be interested on hosting on SFK, Tom? You'd have to setup cron job or something, obviously. I don't see it necessary to update more than once every 12-24 hours though.

		CSS driven would be great, it's a lot easier to code for. The PSN badge would be neat and I'm pretty sure I have access to cron jobs on the server. I think rather than captchas I'll just add a check checkbox that says "I am a bot" which real users have to uncheck. It's a lot simpler and just as effective, without hampering the actual users much. Then I can get rid of the spam users once and for all.

		True, but it would only be used once by the user. Unless they plan on creating multiple ID's. Although, your alternative method sounds simpler.

Souvec Holy Avenger Member Since Mon, Aug 2 2004 11:19 PM 928 Posts		Posted on Tue, Feb 9 2010, 10:38 PM

		Actually Tom that checkbox has to be the the easiest yet probably most effective solution. You should patent that... seriously. I'll see if I can get some time this week or next to forge up a mockup site. Probably will go more modern in its theme unless we have any objections?
