Some Changes; And a much needed apology

TeH g00fy admin (I wonder why no one takes me seriously...) Posts: 749 Group: Admin Member #1 Joined: December 14, 2006	I'd like to start off by saying "sorry." This is the second time I've vanished for a while with no explanation. Some admin I am. =/ I'd like to say that I had some sort of an excuse, but that isn't really the case. School's been a bit overwhelming lately; maybe I just thought I was trying to follow too many sites at once? Who knows. I've been a bit off the past few months. However, things are better now, and I promise I won't vanish again. So, once again, my apologies. Okay, and now onto the other announcements: First off, the board got converted (obviously). When that happened, it wiped pretty much all the existing design/layout codes on the board, which is why the cbox and skin vanished. All that has been addressed and then some. I've even added some new icon/forum markers/etc. (Admittedly, about half of them were not made by me, But I think the ones I made turned out okay. =P) And because adding skins to ZetaBoards is far easier than adding them to InvisionFree, I'll probably find and add some others. Secondly, there's a couple of other features. Most of them... aren't really visible or aren't currently in use, but there are blogs--but they're hiding. At the top of the page, go to Preferences > Update Profile. In the table on the left (Profile Options), click on "My Blog," and from there, you can set it up. To actually add entries, you have to go to your profile by clicking your name at the top of the page (or on one of your posts, etc.), look for the section that says "Personal Blog," and there should be a link to it. Click that, and from there you can add entries. It's a bit unintuitive, and there's no way to access a complete list of the blogs like on IBP. To view another member's blog, you have to go to their profile and access it from there. Even ZB admits their blog system is in it's infant stages. They have a lot of work to do. >.>; Other than looks and the blog system, most of the changes really only changed the admin CP. Now it leaves a bit to be desired, but then again, I might just be used to IBP. Such is life. New features are still being added. Oh, and the cbox is a different color. =P Questions, comments, concerns, suggestions? Feel free to post. Edited by nya_chan, Dec 20 2008, 12:55 PM.
