Here is my little forum, built on SHv8, modified a lot to make it look different to other ServerHackers. I started this site in November 2002, and it is formerly known as FSQ Forums.
Tester account: Username: Test Password: password
Owners: Dave. Faizan
ECNet - Stands for ExplosiveChat.net or Explosive Chat Network
Our site is currently under construction and many more features will be coming.
The MODs I have installed are:
- Links Manager 2
- Portal MOD [Currently not in use]
- Active Users Status in Topic.asp
- Site Integration MOD [Currently not in use]
- My Snitz Personalisation
- Installed Conquer Chat
- Frontpage News MOD
- Updated Rabble
- Tetris
- Who viewed this?
- Gender MOD
- Re-arranged sitenews.asp to fit my needs
- "Members currently viewing" on sitenews.asp
- "Members last visited" on sitenews.asp
- "Active Users" on acive.asp and active_polls.asp
- Flash Games
- Scrolling Announcements on sitenews.asp
- Lots and lots of MODs in the Admin Panel
- Buttons instead of icons and links in the header and topic.asp
- Many more personalisation still in process...
Thanks for your time in seeing my little forum website. I hope to get some constructive criticism and/or complements from fellow Snitzers!

Nice use of colour, guys and overall a top notch layout. Couple of suggestions, though:
- Pull the main content table in to be the same width as your logo - The login form would look better as a single line, sitting between the logo and the main table, or maybe you could move it altogether and have it sit in the upper right of your logo. - You should try and find (or create) some icons that fit your chosen colour scheme a bit better

Faizan, I'm sorry to tell you, but as the site runs on port 82, I cannot access it from here (work). Is there a specific reason for you to run in on port 82? |

I'm running the server that hosts his (our) forum on my cable line and my ISP blocks port 80 traffic. |

Some advice - don´t let the below statement be more important than to have an active and nice looking forum.
Good work - I like it

Thanks for the compliments and suggestions guys! I will try and work on these if I understand them, LOL! I basically don't know any coding, I can only install MODs etc using readme's!
Anymore suggestions or anything? By the way, I don't mind having negative comments as they make you improve something! |

Some feedback ;
- Great logo! Rather big, but still GREAT!
- The site/forum/topics seem to load rather slow...(I'm on a cable connection @ 2560 kbit downstream).
The main page was 180 kb in total. - I totally love the custom icons (and especially the post-icons you're using! (MSN, YIM etc)) Simplicity and elegance!
- Looking good in Opera also!
However, at work I can only visit port 80 or 8080 websites...

Thanks for the feedback Marcel! I made the buttons myself, and will add my own icons too. I just don't get a lot of time now a days.
PS: Did you get my email about 2 weeks ago regarding something you primised me to do for me?
