Okay I'm going to be making a background and logo. That logo will be in a banner that you can use, and you can use that logo if you change the forums. I'll be uploading the .psd in a bit too when its done. As for the roster, I like the ideas everyone is giving. I really love the way Forlorn Legacy does their roster. (http://forlornlegacy.net/roster.php) I've talked to Aurelius I know he writes the website himself, but I really like the look and layout of it. I'll post when I get the logo done.


I do like the layout of that guild. I was undecided between organizing the information by rank or by class. Again, once we decide on the layout we can start to format and make it look pretty :)

That would take nothing but the images to accomplish. If someone wants to find/make some Timore will pay you in icecream.

Gotta make a new account - Wasn't able to move the user databases since 95% of our usernames are invalid for a php conversion.

I can code a work-a-round but until then we will need two user databases.

Just my opinion...

But personally, I would organize it by class. Here's the thing, say someone were looking for someone in particular on a roster. Yes the may be looking for who is a guild leader, but that is what the Officers tab is for. Say I came to the website looking to see Zalimar's armory, or dkp (if we used it), or say his rank. I know that he is a Druid, so I can easily find him on the roster. But if it was by class, I would have to look through the whole list until I see his name. Of course you could set up something where you could search by either class or rank by clicking the column heading, but I guess that's just my opinion. :D

I must say though, I really love the way the website looks so far, good work Zal and Ailie :)

Okay so I was just messing around in Photoshop and Illustrator and here is what I came up with. I also included part of my banner design I did a while ago which is in the bottom left. Just some ideas, if you don't like any of them, I won't cry. :D Keep in mind this is just a logo, that would either go along with the text Just Do Work, or could be used by itself in a screenshot, or a watermark on our videos.

I personally like #4 the best, but that is just me. :P

Ok so I have found a few possible solutions to merge the user databases.

I will be attempting this with any free time I have this week.

Expect both forum and site outages. Can't have you tards posting llamas or junk during it :-P

I'll announce times when I get closer to doing it. Until then I have locked new user registration on the site. Most likely I will be wiping that database since it's the smaller one and pulling in the forum database.

I have prep'd everything for the database merge.

Once again.... There will be both site and forum outages during this time.

If your username has to be changed I will notify you.

Expect it anytime this week. (waiting on a software update)
