Title: The GOF Myspace Page

Yep, you heard correctly.  Our board will have a myspace page up and running by the end of this week (I assume).  Staff discussed it last night, and it seems to be a good way to help attract more visitors to this board.

We'll give out the link when the board is skinned, and set up.

I guess I don't understand how that works.  Is there an actual link to the board somewhere on there?

I've never personally used myspace, but it does seem like a way to get some attraction towards LBT.  I didn't see a link to GOF anywhere though.......

I prefer Facebook. MySpace has too many pedophiles on it.

I haven't forgot to add the link, I'm working on it little by little, I'll go ahead and add a link now

Myspace will serve as a promotion tool for GoF, hopefully bringing in more fans of the LBT series

Likely the site is in alpha testing I'd guess the term would be, or pre alpha testing.

You could say that, I suppose

I've been working on it for the majority of the day.

for some reason, I cant get the links to function like they need to. one link works but the others lead to the Myspace Main Page

other than that, the page is looking colorful and true to the forums, which I'm proud of =)

I see what you mean about the image linking back to myspace.  I'm sure there's a way to fix it.

I can do CSS for it (IM Me this afternoon Aves)

Never mind XD finally the link loads, looks good, you may wanna make the black links lighter, I'd have to see the . and # tags to see what they are XD

Thanks for the help earlier Tails, we got some color errors fixed.. but unfortunately the links still dont function...

I went to the Myspace Help Support Chat for assistance, only to find out its a disgusting excuse of a Dating Service

this is gonna take some work... it seems

We're probably the only ones who are taking it semi-seriously. :P:

Oh, not really.. there's quiet a few professional artists and what not who dress their page up rather well

and I'm sure we're one of hundreds of groups who has a single MySpace page

Edit: Petrie, keep an eye on your e-mail inbox. there should be a response concerning the link problem directly from the Myspace Help staff
