New General Discussion forum 😲

[simonweb]

So, I've decided that one of my older forums were too niche and I wanted to give a general discussion forum a try. So voila, I've been working on a new general discussion forum and its finally ready for release. Check it out and let me know how I can improve it further: https://msgboard.net

And don't worry, a dark theme will come in a near future. 🙂

Good luck with this general discussion forum.
I like your logo 🙂

Very nice forum. Interesting boards, beautiful theme. The only thing that repels me is Politics. Things get really ugly on that topic.

Thank you! And yes, political discussions can get really sour but hopefully most people can be adults about it - and if not, there is always moderators. 😉

I wish you the best of luck & hope it becomes a success 🙂

Nice looking site. Wish you luck with the forum.

What’s your thoughts on the IPS price increase? Will it change your mind on what platform to run the site on?

It looks really clean and pleasing to the eye!

Thanks! It's my first go at a general discussion forum so there will probably be a lot of trial and error. 😅

Nice looking site. Wish you luck with the forum.

Thank you! Yes, I don't like the price increase they've just announced. My license is active and paid for until next year. After that I'll evaluate and see what the pros and cons are.

It looks really clean and pleasing to the eye!

Very nice looking forum and I wish you much success with it!

Thanks! I'm still not completely satisfied with some parts of the design. But it's getting there slowly. 🙂

I'm really liking the look so far! Nive work!

What an awesome domain name! Wishing you all the best!

I woke up this morning and felt the theme needed a refresh, so I made this:



It's not yet optimized for mobile devices, but please do let me know what you think about the desktop version. 🙂

I like the new theme 👍

I like the new theme 👍

Thanks! Once I feel satisfied with the light theme, I'll start working on a dark theme version. 🙂

Good luck! I had a heck of a time reviving Chatting Time 2 and a half years ago. We're getting there, of course, but general discussion is hard to work with in the 2020s. All I can say is be prepared to be committed and be prepared to pull out all the stops.

Good luck, looks really good.🙂

I've made a dark version of my theme, please check it out and let me know what you think about it:



It's really the first time I make a dark theme, so I'm not so sure about the colours just yet.

 

[meetdilip]

The dark version is more eye-catching than the bright one based on the colours. But dark theme fans do not like flashy colours and like them dull. Other than that, good work.

Thank you! Yeah, I might reduce some of the bright yellow colours in the theme. 🙂
