Moderators are forum moderators if they are not global moderators. You add moderators by selecting that on the side panel and then selecting which forum they should moderate.

I've already answered your image question in a PM. I've no clue about the images in the header. I don't know if you can do anything about those.

Thanks.

Like this one:

http://z7.invisionfree.com/farthingwood/index.php?act=idx

It has six or seven links there instead of four.

I checked out recent changes and I think your background image makes text hard to read. If you're going to do something similar to the GOF, you can't have a huge image taking up the whole screen.

I've been working ona photoshopped one, but I've gotten bored with (working on) it.

These are all the sites I've posted links on to my forum:

http://www.wikipedia.org (in code format, its on the spam list, talk page of pebble and the penguin)
http://wikia.com (in my signature)

and that's about it. Are there any other recomennded sites?

I don't even think the GOF is posted at that many places (but maybe it is). Posting at sites is only part of the equation. At first glance, the board looks dead. You need to post the heck out of it and make it look busy or you won't get people to stick around.

I've been "posting the heck out of it", and there's a few more topics.

For the forum, what would be a good skin, cause the one I choose dosen't seem like its fits pebble and the penguin too much.

Petrie. · **Reply #66 on:** October 09, 2010, 05:28:25 PM

Seems like whatever I would choose, you wouldn't choose, so asking me isn't the best idea.

You'll find something; there's lots of skins out there.

I don't know how Leanne messed with the code on fw.net to get what you seek. You could try asking Lutra there what the code says...he's the boss now. (I used to post at that site myself)

What code? The moving words in the header? I could give it to you if you want.

Code: on
<body bgcolor='#000033' leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0" alink='#663333' vlink='#660000'> <% BOARD HEADER %> <% NAVIGATION %> <center> <table border="2" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="3" width="55%" style="border-collapse: collapse; border: 2px solid #00a91c" bgcolor="#000000" height="36"> <tr> <td width="100%" height="40"><font size="4"><marquee direction="left"><font color="#ffffff" face="tahoma">INSERT TEXT HERE</font></marquee></font></td> </tr> </table></center> <% BOARD %> <% STATS %>

Remove "INSERT TEXT HERE" and put whatever you want it to say in there.

Added the forum to the board directory. That should help a little getting people to find it.

I registered at your board to get a better picture of what you're doing. I'll be posting there what sort of updates/changes I think you need to do.

In what section? Should I create the government section?

EDIT: Do you want me to give you admin rights or mod or global mod rights?

EDIT: I'm having a friend post a link to my forum (and gang of five) on her facebook page. She didn't say she'd join, but atleast she's helping out.

I can do more work as an admin. You're going to have to trust me, because I know what you need.

Okay, how's the new skin?

EDIT: Your an admin now.

Adder · **Reply #76 on:** October 11, 2010, 07:36:24 PM

Would facebook be the best place for the link? I just hope she can get it posted on there.

LOTS of new images have been added to the forum such as "add reply" "edit post" and "delete post".

Yes, they are all Pebble and the Penguin related.

EDIT: Here's a VERY BAD example of how a forum should look.
