bar5 Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Just a suggestion, but why not make the color code the same under their name, such as BestTechie Admin is Red; Moderator is Blue and so on. I hope this makes sense what I'm trying to say.It would stand out clearly when they post and it says Group: Admin and so on.That way you would not have to look at the bottom to see who is what.Just a thought.Barb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Makai Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 That's a pretty good idea. Yeah I don't really read the stuff under everyone's name so a color there would catch my eye. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bar5 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 I'm still looking, but I haven't found a way yet...B<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I just thought it would look nice to have it in color for those with special skills. Hope you can find a way. I have seen it on other boards, but have no clue how they do it. Thanks anyway BBarb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 A thought I had about this. One thing that could help, if the coloring isnt possible, is an image system, like the one at geekstogo. For example, your profile there Jeff: http://www.geekstogo.com/forum/index.php?showuser=13268has that image under your avatar, rather than just text. I think the image is replacing the blue blocks.. Just a thought.Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How about a laptop LCD screen with BestTechie, underneath it Admin, Moderator or whatever the title? BT uses the laptop as a logo. Maybe too much? What do you think?Barb Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 That is a good idea, or even instead of using a laptop, use the little "BT in a Square Icon" that is to the left of each forum? Or keep the blocks but change the color for mods and admins (now ideally, it would be changed to black for members, blue for mods and red for admins, but that would be a lot of work, wouldn't it?)Or (please forgive me, Dear Marty, I know you'll hate this idea) stars instead of blocks for the mods and admins?Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hahaha Barb P.S. BT logo would be good using the color that matches the title. (Admins, Mods etc) Do you remember the old TTV logo the Mods had? I think they were yellow or gold. I forget.

Besttechie Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 I've actually been wanting to do the picture for a while. Just need someone to do it. I've also wanted a new banner for the forums... So yes, I will try to get someone to do the pictures and banner for the forums. So we're going to drop the color idea, and just go with a pictures? That's probably the best idea. I like that better as well.B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted August 28, 2005 Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Well, Jeff, there's certainly enough talented people here that can come up with something amazing....put out the call!!!! Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bar5 Posted August 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2005 Ya Jeff, that picture idea does sound a lot better.Better put up a "Help Wanted" thread. We probably got the talent right here, like Liz said.Wish I knew how to do it, I'd volunteer, but have no clue how.Good luck.Barb Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jsbowen Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 Just one minor input....What about those of us who have avatar's disabled? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Besttechie Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 They're not avatars. They're group images icons. You'll see them even if you have avatars disabled. Btw, t0c, that looks good. I'm going to try it out and see how it looks. B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
