| hey nathan... i was looking at this list... http://www.phpbb.com/about/features/
the truth is... i dont really care a whole lot about this... because content is most important... however there are few nice user features in v3... you interested in trying it out for a day?

| Well, if you want to, I'm not footing the bill. I really like how it is at present, but if you want to try out the bells & whistles, go for it. _________________ \_ My blog: Discipulus Scripturae

thats just the thing... no footed bill (free hosting). sooo.... tell me again your reasons for sticking with v2? is it just asthetics? a comfort in the old? or you actually like it better for some reason?
my only fear is what i'm reading about moving to version 3... basically its no big deal until we get big... but once there are thousands of posts instead of hundreds it will take a LONG time to migrate... _________________ "sometimes a little more than you think you want is still a little less than you actually need" "brilliance seems too often masked by stupid people"

| It all comes down to preference I guess. In my opinion v.3 was ugly, and I absolutely hate having the avatars/info on the right hand side. Plus I love it the way it is right now, so comfy...
I'm game for trying out v.3 for a week, just out of curiosity, or whatever. _________________ \_ My blog: Discipulus Scripturae

| okay nathan what do you think>? I think i could get used to the avatars on the right. I also MUCH prefer this posting editor... (at least thus far) its really nice and clean.... but we'll see. the old way had nothing wrong with it.. .and its looking less and less like I'll use any of those v3 features (we might not even have access to them)... _________________ "sometimes a little more than you think you want is still a little less than you actually need" "brilliance seems too often masked by stupid people"

| Three will work fine. However if you're not going to utilize any of the new stuff I'd prefer v.2
Let's give it a week or so though, maybe I'll change my mind. Also, since there are more than two of us using the forum anyone else is more than welcome to comment with their opinion, if any. _________________ \_ My blog: Discipulus Scripturae

| If you think people aren't aware of this post it's probably because they don't use the "Latest Posts" feature on the homepage, or because there are too many empty forums. I think it's probably preferable to have fewer forums and only add to their number as the amount (and diversity) of posts dictate. I say give it a few more weeks before rearranging them though, just to see what direction things take. _________________ \_ My blog: Discipulus Scripturae

yea i was messing with some things and it went ugly for a bit. do you have any preference between what it was and what it is now? _________________ "sometimes a little more than you think you want is still a little less than you actually need" "brilliance seems too often masked by stupid people"

| I would suggest making the "forum" link/button more prominent on the main "theologer.com" home page. I used to be more prominent in one of the previous versions. |
