My plan for the Executive forum is such: 1. Move the "Delegate's Office" posts into the executive forum and delete the "Delegate's Office" 2. Move the media office as a sub-forum for Foreign Affairs as that generally pertains to foreign updates 3. Delete the Immigration forum and move the posts to the Culture & Education forum. We can combine resources there and have a go of it. 4. Move the Delegate Election forum to Conclave. It makes sense to me because that's ultimately the job of the Conclave. I am torn on what to do with EPPS. On the one hand it's good to have a place to meet if we do have an internal threat. On the other hand, we've got a good system in place and every citizen should do their due diligence to report suspicious behavior in the interest of security. I'll leave it be for now. |

Working with a menu that turned into a partial header replacement... Examples: Spoiler: click to toggle Spoiler: click to toggle Spoiler: click to toggle I split the center block into two. Need fresh ideas for that. Also menu is expandable (colors are limited due to using a lite version of a program). For consolidation, if liked, will remove the footer and merge key areas into the menu. Thoughts? Edited by East Malaysia, Nov 9 2016, 06:46:10 PM.

For one of the center blocks, you could have upcoming events listed, similar to how you had the xenocon. I really like the expandable header too.

I like the drop-down menu very much. EM, I'm going to continue to institute some of the changes you've been working on. I have a little bit of time. |

I like the drop down menu, but will that theme shown be the theme?? It looks a little bland, and honestly boring. The one we have now is nice. | ||

Could look into doing something like that. Might be able to use the same script the is used for the FAQ page. We might have a need to keep an events subform make that happen. I'll do some testing but it would at times duplicate with Trending Topics...
Awesome, thanks!
That's actually the classic theme ![]() Banner Refresh? Examples 1000x90 Submit any idea. Maybe drop the wings? Make it simple? Topic Descriptions Submit your ideas

I spoke about this to Bach, our Viceroy. We both feel that the forum is a better fit in the Conclave since the Viceroy runs the elections and should therefore be under their domain. |

Menu Bar has been rolled out to each theme, Dark Theme and bigRED, are still WIP. New banner image has also been rolled out.... the inspiration for it was 1IL and what makes TEP different from other regions. Also the infinity symbol makes me think of an owl the way I placed it and the text represents that we all come from different background in NS (and RL) but we are united together hence the Confederated East Pacific. | ||

We do have a Dark Theme. What type of more theme options are you interested in specifically?
I know that was discussed a long time ago between admins but their was a reason it was not implemented. I'll take a look.
It could be the menu. Could you provide a screen shot? I was thinking of making smaller menus for the themes with width constrictions. |

Looks fantastic! Another suggestion I have is userbars. They're fun to put in signatures. They could include citizen, Magister, Arbiter, Vizier and some IC ones such as roleplayer, etc. Thoughts? |

It was a technical and design decision. Technical is a coding issue that can't really be bypassed in the current location. The alternative could have worked but it didn't look good. So we [admins and mods] went for that best option. Also a side discussion at the time also was that it could confuse members and could also be viewed as ads since they are similarish in size and that keeping it simple with refreshes gave a better identity.
Thanks. It's the same on my end. I honestly didn't notice until I thought about it after seeing it. Since I will have limited PC access it may be next week at the latest before I find the cause of the exact issue but.
I feel like we had them once before but I could be thinking of a user making their own. I could look into making some after major forum changes but anyone could get a head start and maybe we can set them up on their own webpage on the board. Side note. I may prune our webpages or look into better design also. LAST CALL This committee is set to end in a few days. We could go on \ lot longer but at this time please list any last suggestions at this time. Previous suggestions will continue to be worked on with better forum descriptions, profile fields, theme development, etc. But this is not the end since you can always make suggestions in the technical forum or directly with me. If you would like to continue to help with working on items that will are still WIP and interesting in making suggestions/ideas then feel free to let me know; I could always use the help! |

I am not very good at designing, but I can definitely attempt to make a draft userbar. I know some people that know how to that could probably help out as well. | ||

Question with the forums, what do the different coloured symbols beside topics mean? Some are blue, and others are red. I originally thought it was unread or read, then I thought it was posted in topics and those I hadn't. Now I'm just confused. | ||

I just thought of something: maybe on holidays and the like there can be a different theme for the forum. This may cause problems and confusion, but isn't that what the holidays are all about, anyway? Just thinking aloud. |
