The Corroboree
Torsten

Forum upgrade happening in the next few days.

Recommended Posts

After almost 3 months of holding my tongue I hope it is ok now to ask, are our beloved earthy colour ever to return? :(

I have gotten quite used to the default colour scheme but I still miss our outback tones.

I think the forum should be more patriotic, a nice mixture of red white and blue for our american friends!

yay, chnt loves things related to flags.

i wish everything was in the style of the american flag, you really dont see enough of it too, aussie flag too, but i just think that children should be branded with southern cross tattoos in their forehead, and on their back it can say "fuck off we're full!"

i love it all so much.

when are we getting some Corroboree stamps back on the site.......

im pretty good at web design/development Torsten(its my major) if ya want me to do a little work. Skilled with php html5, css3, ruby, sql, databases, jquery, ajax, smarty templtates (amongst others).....I havent used IP Board before, but i assume the forum uses MVC structure, and hides all the variables and text from the structure with .tpl files which are modified along with css to yield the look of the site?

IM yearing for something that i can identify with on the site again....looks way too static and busniness like for our laxed community. I know its coming and all, but im having withdrawls.

Anyone else here got skillz in web dev? Darkspark i know your reading this ;)

OK, I know it has been a LOOOOOONG time, but we're nearly there. The lovely folks who donated their time to redesign the forums ended up getting a big contract just after they started and obviously being a volunteer situation I fully understood that they had to do what pays the bills first. That said, the design has actually been finished for about a week, but I have not had the time to put it up. In fact, I haven't even been home most of that time.

I should warn you though that the new style is VERY different. We are still earthy and aussie, but we've gone quite modern and minimal in many respects. Some will hate it, some will love it, but I hope overall it will be seen as an interesting change. I will apply it as soon as I know that I will be home for more than 3 days in a row as that's the minimum it takes to sort out dramas that might require IPB support.

Really looking forward to it. I think the old design was a bit outdated.

I am a bit worried .... with Torsten using capital letters to describe it as being VERY different.?!. I am looking forward to seeing what coming up.

Thank You to the people responsible for working on the new SAB design. :).

There may still be minor bugs and bits of blue that need to be eliminated, but this is pretty much what it is. I personally love it although I had to think about it for a few minutes because I was so used to the previous styles. Now there is no looking back.

Please, if you don't like it, just hold off posting for a few minutes. It grew on me really quickly so I hope it will do the same for those who might prefer the older schemes. Then again, maybe I am deluding myself and no one actually liked the old scheme ;)
