Ok, I have decided that none of the current CMS/Forum systems are going to give me what I really want for a site, so I have decided I would create my own from scratch to do this. You can see the current progress at http://rancidmoose.homeip.net/~rivereye

The hosting is provided by elfprince13 on a home server, so it will have an occasional downtime, and the bandwidth will not be the greatest.

Please take a look at and let me know what you think.

There is a lot to go, but I would like support on this all the way.

Current Features Done:
Login
Logout
User Registration

Working On:
Forum Display Rendering

To Do:
A Lot

ugh too late its down :( but iremember seeing a preview a while ago and it looked nice, reminded me cemetech :D keep it up!

o.o no its not....I just checked all my settings, and confirmed it via a cgi proxy, everything seems to be in order...

still says page not found for me
are u sure you didnt banned some country/ip?

lol, rivereye mistyped his link, its http://rancidmoose.homeip.net/~rivereye

w00t works now! nice

thanks.

btw, link is updated and fixed.

are you using css and how are you doing your controlls (js, perl, etc)? Also, I can make some neat bgs if you wanted

I am using CSS, and it is programmed in PHP and MySQL.

for some reasons i think that would go fine for a halloween Omnimaga bg :D

The CMS looks great Rivereye (why haven't you posted this over on RS?)

I thought RS closed o.o (tenniskid even removed the affiliate from the affiliate bar after asking)

Jincs, I guess I should get around to that. RS still has an IF forum we are on, but that is about it.

Yeah, and it's pretty much dead (though it wouldn't be so bad if I posted more topics...) :cry:

well, we shall see eventually. If there is interest there, I will try to keep up with it. If not, I will let it die until this project is done (and quite possibly wait for Rivereye, The RPG to be done also).

*xlibman pokes RPG progress

well, RPG progress is halted as my calc is acting really weird lately. I wonder why though. I hope I don't have to buy a new one.

Btw, on the RPG subject, if I get an 89, and finish the RPG, there is a high chance of a port.

uh oh i hope it wont break x.x I hope it can be fixed. Those things are damn expensive :S

A port would be a nice addition tho :)

well, it is now worse, but I got on on ebay for $80 working its way here. Hopefully will be here soon. No progress loss (or so I think), I was able to back up my progs just before things went really south).

oh nice to hear at least, I'm glad you didnt lost anything

well, I opened up the calc last night, and found corrosion on the CPU. Cleaned it up, and now my calc is working again (or so I can tell).

Nvm, acting weird again

ouch thats not a good thing.

yeah, it does suck, ah well though.

sometimes, if its raining hard outside and its very humid and you have your calc in your backpack, just that could cause problem, as humidity could infiltrate inside the calc and cause corrosion with the time (even though it take a while)

ok, just to help save of elf's bandwidth, I have moved to a new server for development. http://rivereye.tifreakware.net

I moved the DB over, so nothing should have changed.

sound cool ^.^, this is faster as well

yeah, more bandwidth speed, and a faster computer doing the work will do that.

ok, worked on Subforum rendering. Should be working now just fine (Projects has a subforum on it), and working on adding topics/posts soon. Shouldn't take long to have a halfway working forum done.

sound nice, you are allowing customising forum/sub forums right?

what do you mean?

what do you mean?

*bump*

ok, did some work on topic list rendering, and also worked on the site design a little bit (or a lot really) to fit the new logo I have. I hope you guys like it.

note bad, It might be nice one some of the larger text to feather it around the edges, but overall, nice work. have you checked the validity of your html/css yet?

I love the colors so far. Only thing is that I would change the gray areas in the side bar to black

*tifreak8x whistles

Very nice! Definitely an improvement from the white background. :D :thumpsup:

hmmm....the light blue on the side of the page once logged in == massive eyestrain, the uber-green and huge font on the logo is a little sketchy, try feathering that a bit, and get yourself a better 404 page, I don't like the ads on the current one :P

will look at the login thing. As for the gray sidebar, I did that to offset it a tad bit, I think it looks better that way. I can work on a 404 page, as to the logo, will talk to a friend on that (I didn't make it).

ok, I have you able to reply to posts in existing topics now. Please note, only one topic exists right now (and it is in the projects area). Give it a shot (and test the security of it also).

does it support html yet? or bbcode? Sound nice tho :)

actually, it will not support HTML in posts, though I will be adding BBCode eventually (HTML in posts can become quite weird).

I have last post info for forums done now (though, it only does for the forum it is in, not parent forums, that will come soon. Will work on post editing/deleting soon.
