Title: Website Makeover!
Post by: Ban Em All on August 27, 2009, 10:49:18 PM
So KEA is going to use vBulletin as our forum program. It will help us browse the forums easier and everything. It will help us get sponsors this way people know we are serious. The donation box below is for the vB software. There is no time frame for this. Donate when you feel like it. We urge you to first donate to the donation box on the front page though first. It is more important than this one!!!!!
This money isn't going to guit_ar_tist's paypal. It's going to mine, just sayin. Depending on how fast we get the money for vB will depend on how fast we transfer over.
Keep in mind, because SMF(our current forum software) encrypts every users password, everyone will have to reset their password when we switch to vB. I will setup a back up forum will I work on vB with an exact replica of this forum.
Thank you very much. Again, [KEA] Donations box first, this one second. To learn more about vB, you can go to vBulletin.com (http://www.vbulletin.com/)
To test out vB and see how you like it. I find the best vB site is PESTGaming.com (http://pestgaming.com/forum)
Again, Thank you,
The KEA Team

would it be possible to put that chip in business on the front page so that it would be a little more easily accessable?

So happy we are going to vbulletin. It is a great software. My old DoD clan has a nice vbulletin setup. http://www.victorious-secret.org (http://www.victorious-secret.org)
Didn't we raise 3x as much money as we needed last month to cover this month KEA bill and some of the vBulletin cost?

uh. sort of. we put that money towards the webhost bill for the rest of the year. now our monthly goal needed will be 55 dollars i think. you should really ask guitartist for more of the details.

If you look at our forums at Halflife2.net you can see another example of a large customized vbulletin install. It will own the shit out of SMF. Also I intend on making a slick ass layout for it, so if anyone has suggestions for what they want to see colors/design wise (or show me examples of clan sites you like), bring em on.
