Default New website and forum design

I'd like to see a new TiBB website and forum design, this one has been around for a while now and i think it's time to get a new design. Not a design that would last about a year, one that would last for about 5 years or something. Hope you'll take my suggestion on board

this one has stood the test of time to be honest. I like it, it is easy to navigate and read and not unfriendly on the eye. The official BB site is messy and not very easy to get around compared to this one

I agree with Sunny.
And also, you can change skins if you want a colour change etc.

I have a question... How do you know this one has been around for years when you only registered 3 months ago?

I also like it the way it is btw...

The reason I know that this site has been around for a long time is because other people have told me.

I think it's great the way it is, a lot easier to use and go around than some other forums I've visited.

And as Lauren says, if you're bored of the background, it's possible to change the skin.

I personally wouldn't like the design to change, it's pretty easy to use/navigate as it is and as said above you can change the skin you use in the 'control panel' to suit you.

Yes the site might be looking a bit old but it works and it works rather well. And new features are still being added like the chat room everyone wanted but now don't use.

Small changes over time have be carried out to improve the usability of the site and changes made to the software to meet our needs. It would be a shame to lose all this work and some loss of custom functionality just for the sake of a change in style. As the old adage goes "If it isn't broke don't fix it". If we changed the style which might involve changing the software we could be just asking for trouble.

I rather like the site for many of the reasons stated above. I think the site will serve us well for a few more years.

It comparable with other java chat rooms I have used.

I'm not sure why we use the software we do for it. It might have something to do with server load and cost. Only James or Mark know the answer to that question.

I don't think it's a bad chatroom, it tends to be used more during the BBs though...

And when people did initially use the chatroom a lot, people complained that the forum was being neglected!

So I just think it's good we have the option.

Ash is right, when the chatroom was full, the forum was rubbish. So, it's probably a good thing that it's rarely used.

I don't think anyone uses the chatroom because everyone chats on msn! Also the forum was rubbish when the chatroom first started!

Yeah, I used the chatroom once yesterday and everyone left just cos I said hello and that really hurt! I used to go in a Darius (Danesh) chatroom a lot before I got MSN, but then started using that more. I'd like to chat with a few more people cos I feel I'm not a part of any of the groups and pairings on here, my posts tend to get ignored too.

I like the blue colours though!
