I've made a couple of changes for the benefit of the forums, it took me a while to import the database by hand, but I think everything is working fine, please inform me if something goes wrong, so I can check my changes once more (but I made sure everything works fine for now) <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->.

Might I recommend turning <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.korax-heritage.com/forums/index.php">http://www.korax-heritage.com/forums/index.php</a><!-- w --> into a redirect page to the new forum location. Some people may still be going there and just thinking the forums are down, like me until a few days ago. Anyway firebrand, so far I like what you've done with the place.

There are two quick and easy ways to do this: 1) insert into public_html/.htaccess the following: Redirect Permanent /forums/ <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.korax-heritage.com/forum/">http://www.korax-heritage.com/forum/</a><!-- m --> 2) insert into public_html/forums/.htaccess the following: ErrorDocument 404 <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.korax-heritage.com/forum/index.php">http://www.korax-heritage.com/forum/index.php</a><!-- m --> The first will redirect all forum requests to the old directory to the new one, keeping the URLs otherwise intact (i.e. if the post and topic links are the same as in the old version, they will seamlessly redirect for all bookmarks and internet links). It doesn't matter whether there are any files present in forums/ or whether the directory exists or not. The second will redirect any and all requests to the new main forums page. The directory forums/ must be empty save the .htaccess file. A completely different option would be to simply remove the current forums/ directory and rename forum to forums (unless there is some special modding or theme stuff in the new setup that has a problem with it, moving phpBB to a different directory consists of a simple change in the configuration). p.s. I want my avatar and sig pic back! <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->

Heh, I like my blue sphere beyond my name... <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> is the color somehow connected with programming?

[quote="Crimson Wizard":1f8hbls2]is the color somehow connected with programming? Oh yeah! I made an algorithm to calculate which color would look better on every position in the team <!-- s:lol: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_lol.gif" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing" /><!-- s:lol: --> <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P --> (j/k) Nope, the colors were used indifferently, I just found some rank images for this forum theme and decided to modify them just for fun <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->. EDIT: I also added some avatars to our empty gallery with some animations from Hexen monsters/players, they aren't anything very interesting, but I hope they'll get used <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->.

Any way to change the orb colours? I'd like mine white. <!-- s:) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s:) -->

I can make you a new one easily <!-- s;) --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s;) -->, anyone wanting a color change? <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

See now I have the problem of if I stay quiet perhaps I'll seem rude but if I reply it would seem as though I'm disobeying the boss.

[quote="RambOrc":12b2i7ju]Yeah... I want your green, you get yourself something else. LOL hmm, let me think, maybe you want my green icon, but you'll also want these two: [url:12b2i7ju]http://korax.heretichexen.com/forum/images/avatars/custom/orchead_left.gif [url:12b2i7ju]http://korax.heretichexen.com/forum/images/avatars/custom/kasig.jpg So let's make an interchange, allright? I'll keep my green icon, and you'll keep you avatars too <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P --> EDIT: You keep that ugly green orb, I didn't liked it anyway <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P -->

A condescending form of saying something like "you've done well, youngster", just in a much less nice way. <!-- s:P --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s:P -->
