Question for the Members

[tkam]

Hey everyone, I've been planning to add a number of features like a portal integration and also an integrated photo gallery for awhile now. One of the reasons why I've been hesitant to do this is that I know many of the members like the current ability to use any of the installed themes and switch between them on their own. To add the portal and gallery features the ability to choose your own theme would have to go away. Everyone would be forced to use the same theme.

Are these features something that you would be interested in? Or would you rather have the option to choose which theme you use? Unfortunately there really isn't any middle ground, so its either new features or having theme choices.

Todd,

I would be interested in the new features, and I could live with the Ig-oh theme indefinitely

[ojnihs]

Interested here as well! I use Ig-Oh so no problem there.

I think the options sound great, though I think SMF Default Theme - Core is an improvement in every way over Ig-oh. Just my $0.02

[thrice]

Go with the features. Can you choose any theme so long as it's default for all members?

Perhaps we can fight over which theme...err, I mean vote.

I agree, though I'm fine with either.

[tkam]

Well how about this, I'll try to get some screen shots of the themes that will work with everything. Then maybe we'll have a vote, though of course I have final veto power

[deepak]

I don't care about the theme as long as I get that little bar at the bottom with 10 new posts

A photo gallery would be really cool, though I wouldn't use it as much as others.

[en480c4]

A black background doesn't work well on my smart phone, and once I move, I'll be giving up internet. So the black themes, as cool as they are, would keep me from posting much when not at work. Or has that been your plan all along Reks?

[postjack]

I'm all for new features, but unfortunately I'm a black theme kind of guy. :'( But I'll go with the crowd on this one if a white theme is preferred.

[jinp6301]

i bet in postjacks forum, you can have both themes and features as well as mind reading porn sites

[granodemostasa]

i'm fine with it, so long as the "recent posts" thing stays.

[tkam]

Thanks for the feedback guys. If you happen to feel like changing your theme to the default "Core" theme. You should see a gallery button show up on the top menu bar. I'm just getting started setting it up, but for now any members can add pictures. I've created a few categories so please try to put your pictures in the right one .

[jinp6301]

ha, everyone was like yay photo gallery and now no ones using it

[jinp6301]

see, it's the ol' iPod vs. everything else argument. all the other players have features like FM radio, that nobody uses (photo gallery), but the iPod has the sweet user interface (black background).

pfft, ipods sucks balls

[jinp6301]

no, iPods aren't your mom.

[grawk]

But maybe you can make cute outfits for your ipod and PRETEND it's your mom!

Seconded (albeit late).
