omg! leik take a look at my pro forum i got from proboards!!!1oneoen

No.

During the past month i have been working on various projects, one of them being a forum yay.

so today i uploaded the latest version of it, and i would like your opinions on it.
like what is a good color scheme, what features would make a forum, etc.

if you are interested in checking it out, the url is http://forum.lukasw.com/.

so please take a moment, and write me a comment in this post on what you think of it. it would be nice to get some feedback on this after all this time

thanks to:
The Nerd, for testing and found bugs that i allready fixed (twice)
Hyrichter (as allways ), for helping me understand PHP and it's commands better
and i can't forget Rich D, for giving me tips on how he wrote this forum and how i could do it in my forum
oh and also Essence for pretty much helping me with the same kind of stuff that hyrichter helped me with
people who said: "cool", "keep it up", "yay"

IMHO it looks like it could be a nice, professional forum, but the darker blue doesn't only stand out too much, but it can throw people off if you happen to decide to put a blue link on it. But I like it a lot, small, functional, and easy to get through.

BTW, isn't that Kerian420 guy the one whos been banned 3 times on 3 accounts within the past month?

thanks, but i am not the only one to write a forum.
there are many users on this forum that have written their own, i can't remember who though right now.

i cannot recreate the "post and you will become admin using lukasw's profile" bug :/ and i dont find anything in the code that is causing this problem. so i edited the posts to give the users their original positions (users) and avatar etc. so hopefully it will stay this way.

Thanks for mentioning me, Lukas. You've got a real good start there, so keep up the good work.

I've written a forum, but it's in ASP Click my website button to see it. I've started another forum with PHP, but I haven't had time to work on it much.

not really. It gets boring after you realised you messed one *minor* detail up, and if you want to make an upgrade or expand upon that version, you have to re-write most of it...

Don't worry, you still have better security than the US government does over vital defense systems. Kudos.

i think i know how to fix the bug where
Quote: "and i just found a bug
if i log in, and click on a registered user, suddenly im logged in as that user i clicked on"
.

because i use sessions, something is happening causing the session that stores the user position in the forum to change into the position of the user the user is currently viewing the profile of.

so if i take the square root of pi divide it with the tangent of a 30degree triangular spehere and multiply it with the number of braincells in a cow i got to the answer: sql table.

edit,
but im too lazy to fix it now
