Fireboar and I have been working out what we can to get the site to be a little more user-friendly.

- Added a search function and member list. Look at the subheader (there is the one at the top which is always static, then the one right above the forums, that's the one you want).

- Removed the 'Chat' function that didn't work anyway.

- Shuffled a few things around to make it easier to navigate.

- We put more information under 'Home' - DM Team, reference, so on.

Right now we are messing with color schemes. Input appreciated.

Current Colour Scheme is nice, And adding in the Quote function, means a lot less cutting and pasting for people like me I would say This Forum has reached a point where it is now on par to the previous forum.

I've just added free-form tagging. I've no idea if this will be useful or if people will use it or anything but... basically the idea is that when creating topics people can give them "tags", as many as you like, you can search related tags, we can set up synonyms, and so on.

Any site template suggestions would be great to have.

Well, don't know about others, but the Times New Roman is.. not really what I like, can't that be changed maybe?

Times New Roman? Where? Everything uses a sans-serif font, how's your browser set up?

... just checked. The fallback font is "serif". Oops! *fixes*

[edit] oh, a way to delete a post by its creator for accidental double-posts. <_< [/edit]

chat works
Not a lot of people in here, but we get questions sometimes.
a good working portal is:
http://webchat.freenode.net?channels=arelith

Other then that, the nav em could get bumped up a bit?

I really like the distinction between new topics and new replies.

[edit]Deities images have an extra little "/themes/arelith" in their path[/edit]

Thanks for the feedback. You should be able to delete your own replies now. The deities thing: that's a carry-over from the temporary site, I decided to move content-related images outside the themes folder (which itself has also moved). I'll sort that out in a minute.

The navigation itself could use some reworking... I'll have a chat with Jess about that. Dragoneye and I have been basically figuring out how to put useful links in the right contexts (a context being a section of the site, such as the forum, the info pages, and so on), without cluttering it up.

Looks much better now; and also restores the "new posts" view from the old forums, which is a massive time-saver (or if it was already there before, I can actually find it now!) Great work, and thanks!

I'm probably being too demanding, but in topics with only one post, could we please have a reply button at the bottom as well still? For some reason topics with one post only have a reply button at the top...

EDIT: Oh and the Arelith Wiki link up there *points* is not working.
