Welcome to UBB Version 6.0

Sorry for the extra down time.

PLEASE NOTE: forums have a new URL:
http://www.sijun.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi

Please update your bookmarks AND and links you may have on your homepage. Please also just pass on this info to anyone you know that visits here.

Theres a bunch of new features, explore around and check it out, see what you think. Posting images is finally gonna be easier

, there is also personal messaging, a member rating system (use this for conduct not art quality

)

hehe...I havent even explored it all myself yet, but it seems pretty cool. Let me know if it feels slower or faster or the same.

Theres some new grafix and icons, i'll be changing those out to match the page better throughout the week. Please let me know if there is any problems.

enjoy,
-dhab

Good to see it back. Looks sweet so far, albeit a bit slower. Still trying out the new stuff....

Bugscratch · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 3:24 am

Whoah...I suck...Nothing's slower, I just forgot that I have GetRight downloading a 650 MB file on my single ISDN connection right now.....

S4Sb · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 3:33 am

Wow... I wonder why Dhabih is member #2 ....who was member #1?

El Caseron · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 3:39 am

Just want to see what number I was back in the days

Bugscratch · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 3:51 am

You know what would be good ? If you could change the rating you gave about someone, in case your opinion on that person changes. Examples come to mind like Moongoose. It would kinda suck to have him at 5 stars all the time

S4Sb · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 4:08 am

ummm...that's strange. Threads which get replied to don't get automatically pushed to the top of the list....

is it supposed to be like that?

Cool.. Back up again.

what i said in my 'new ubb version' thread on random. *hiss*

Enayla · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 5:58 am

There are a lot of things to complain about... there always are. The forums are bound to be a bit... bug-riddled in the beginning. Some stuff we will not like as much as we liked them in the old version...

But truth to be told - there will ALWAYS be stuff to complain about where everything is concerned. If we stop complaining and instead try to offer something constructive to the forum, I'm sure everything will work out.

Yeah, I know - I sound like such a ...err...bore, but for once I'm in a good mood and I think the forum can be salvaged. Things were pretty bad just before it disappeared - let's not allow it to slide back into that again.

I don't come here for what the forums look like - I come here for the contents.

the transparent gifs are all poopy.

Frost · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 7:28 am

I had made a picture just for the occasion... hope you find it funny, as that was the intention. =)

This version of ubb seems a lot better.

sear · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 7:33 am

let's face it. the end of the month wouldn't have been the same without our sijun fix.

nice pic frost

Bugscratch · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 7:41 am

Frost, I'm really disappointed to see you threnodizing an obvious photograph.

Err.

The pic rules

Good stuff frost. Dhab:: I'm rather curious, but how'd you do on your taxes?

Thanks for getting the forusm up by the way!

S4Sb · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 8:01 am

, Frost
Enayla: It really wasn't my intention to complain about minor faults in that forum. I'm in a happy mood since the forums are back up and we have the first day of summer here.
My intention was more constructive than destructive. Reporting bugs.... Just to let Dhabih know. He might say: "Really? Oh, that wasn't supposed to work like this. But I know how to change it."

Loki · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 8:36 am

Hey! All new and shiny! Thanks Dhabih! I have to admit - I checked every day (sometimes even twice) to see if the forums were open again ...
And so much new stuff - must have been a lot of work getting it running again. It's like: Daddy installed a new jungle jim in the garden, so the kids can play even nicer ...

The little vacation did us all well too, I think ... at least I feel a lot calmer now

Thanks again,

Loki

Sometimes when I can't think of what to draw or want to look for inspiration I check out the forums. These past few days I tried looking elsewhere only to realise once again how freakin' cool this forum is. So glad it is back up.

Someone wrote in my highschool yearbook that if I ever have trouble trying to think of something to draw, draw naked chicks. I have to admit that usually works...but not so much after I got married.

burn0ut · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 9:46 am

Yup i like this alot more dhab, except it does load slower for me

S4Sb · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 12:05 pm

I like this one better. It just needs some tuning.

Luci · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 12:20 pm

Wow, I do like the update a lot, Apart from the rather long wait

It's looking wonderful, Im sure everything will be back to it's old self again.

Nice work dhab!

Oh! I'm just glad the forum's back. A week without it seemed like forever.

My name is Pat and I'm a digital art addict.

Hey, great to see the forum back up and looking good. It's definatly a lot slower in Netscape than it used to be. I think IE is fine though. Thanks for all hard work you've invested in this place Dhabih.

I say we have a forum-wide contest.

Whoever can draw the best (most original, highest quality, aesthetically pleasing) graemlins, involving all of the instant variety, gets to have them used as the offical icons.

The lack of shading is distracting.

Dhabih · Posted: Sun Apr 22, 2001 2:13 pm

Cool, well, like i said in the original post, i haven't touched the new icons to make them shaded like the other ones, that will be happening soon, also all the aliasing on the icons looks stupid right now, but again thats cause i havent edited them. Forums are quite a bit slower for me too (since i still use netscape), i'll try to figure out why. It might just be a server thing.
