Alright, here is the thread that we should all be posting the things we would like to see added to TAL, instead of flooding the Style Issues, and Bugs of all sorts thread.

So, here is my suggestion.

Add a section for users to add their artwork, for all users to view and share. Have a mod or two over see this section and have monthly a poll for the Artwork of the month.
Have it all original artwork, it doesn't have to be totally anime related, and it allows people to freely express themselves.
Also, can create a section for users to write short stories, and allow themselves to express themselves that way.

Featured Members, do a featured member for every so months. A member that is active and has helped contribute a lot to the site. If it be just bringing a handful of members to the site, or just being active.

Here is just the first few stings of suggestions I have, hopefully I will have a few more later on.

GFX is already the Art section.
And the lit section is the place for short stories and other works.

Well, my comment about the lit section still stands.

But I've always viewed the GFX section as the art section. People have posted art work, photography, drawings, etc.

Good to get suggestions, keep 'em coming. ^^

Style Issues, and Bugs of all sorts thread are meant to collect problems concerning of matter of upgrading forum. Not general suggestion of forum's content.

Art section or better known GFX section does have already sig of the week or month contest going on. I think reason given earlier of why there isn't anything else (contests, artwork of month and such) was that there isn't enough peeps to keep things interesting. Artwork, other than gfx, has been posted in that section earlier, because there just have been few those haven't gotten their own section. I could be wrong, DarkDays may have better answer for this.

Written stories and such can be posted here -> Literature. Literature section is a quiet place. But when TAL grows, I am sure it will grow too.

At this point when we're small and growing same peeps are doing the job. So maybe it is not yet good time to reward peeps for being a good sport. Maybe when Awards are implemented to TAL we'll get to that business seriously.

what i'd like to see added back to the new TAL sight is the group section. sorry if nobody else liked it but it was the only place where i felt that i could have something okay and be okay about it. I had a group named P.O.V (not sure why i named it that but what it stands for is the old Perverst of Konoha FC (but as a group) ) if you aren't going to add the group section back onto the sight so that i can make another group then that's okay,

just thought that i'd add my two cents in (it could be because i'm bored out of my mind and that took up the boredness)



thanks

J.C.

While that is not a built in feature for IPB, there is a possibility of emulating that type of environment by using subforums and the gallery. It won't be completely the same, but in the end, it's really up to how much work the FC mods want to put into it.

A quick example would be some FC has enough activity where Martzu or edide can then create request a "group" to be made which is actually a subforum I would create that doesn't show on the front page (so it doesn't end up cluttering the index), but under something like "Groups." It would allow for more freedom but would require more activity to even be opened in the first place. When I was experimenting with groups on vB, they were never meant to be just open for creation. I wanted it to be something FCs could use, similar to what you're suggesting, but I think we can figure out an alternate way here.

Although, speaking of FC and groups, I want FCs to be able to utilize the gallery more because IPB has a very impressive gallery compared to vB's albums.

That actually doesn't sound like a bad plan at all. Except for the activity part.

I think Fairy Tail seriously deserves a subforum in popular anime... It's just 20 episodes old and it's getting more popular by the milisecond... Personally, it's the only anime I've ever liked more than the big 3 or dragonball (And btw I know that dragonball isn't airing anymore - duh - but doesn't it also deserve a spot in popular anime? I can't believe that there is no special forum for dragonball)

Well anyways... I'm pretty sure that it isn't just my opinion otherwise I wouldn't bother posting this... but since fairy tail started airing youtube has been filled with the themes and stuff and in general I find it everywhere!
At least consider the possibility... That way you'd give much more freedom of posting to Fairy Tail fans and you'd help the fanbase grow even more...

Can't speak for Haoh, but at the moment, neither one of those are on my mind for needing their own subsection at the moment.

Also, Dragonball Kai is still airing.

Well, personally I have a dozen threads in mind for a Fairy Tail Subsection x_X Perhaps the reason why it doesn't seem like it needs a subsection is because, being limited to a single thread, people don't even bother talking that much about anything else but the episodes...


Ok, let me better explain some major points that make Fairy Tail worthy of a subsection:

-THE BEST ANIME OST THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN (I rarely find 3-4 good tracks in a single OST but Fairy Tail's first out of the many OSTs to come has SIX great themes, 3 out of which I personally find better than ANY other anime). People tend to make threads about the OST, hence why this is included in these "points" (BTW in case you don't know which themes I'm referring to see: The Theme of Multiflora, Erza's Theme, Against Magic, Invoke Magic, Dragon Slayer, Fairy Tail Main Theme)
-RAPID PROGRESSION (In comparison with other anime - especially Bleach)... In just 20 episodes we covered the Lullaby and Deliora mini-arcs and moved into a bigger arc, about the Phantom...
-INTERESTING PLOT... Seriously... How many anime with a medieval/magic theme do you know? 3? 4? 10? 20? That's WAY too little...


Well ^ is just my personal humble opinion... I just thought I'd make another post to back up my suggestion... Now it's all up to the mods ^_^

I wouldn't say that since topics are started in other threads that do not have to do with the episodes of the anime.

Though, if you really want to get a subsection, come up with some proof of more people than just yourself who want one. Then the proposal can be put under careful consideration.

I've been waiting since the change from VB4 for a button that says "Mark ALL threads read"

I'm tired of threads that is old but still have big bold letters like something new happened.

Please onegai shimasu

Edit: Also the plus and minus button to hide certain parts of the forum never works for the fan central section. I've cleared cache and tried both Firefox and chrome.

 Mark all as read is at the very bottom of the board, kind of hidden.  I'm waiting on an announcement from IB before I make any lasting skin edits so it's always been there, just not all that visible.

The plus and minus that minimizes an entire forum section?  It uses javascript so if you have anything blocking that it won't work.  I just tried in Firefox and Chrome and it worked just fine.

Full Metal Alchemist having it's own subforum in Popular Manga. Even though it's monthly unlike the other 3 and it seems to be reaching the end soon. I think it's not far behind the big 3 in popularity.

Yes, it is popular, but you have to realize the immense difference between the big 3 and FMA.

I don't have java script blockers. All other sections except fan central is minimized.

I'll find that damn button. Kind of hidden.

Is there a way to make it so that when you're looking at a list of threads in a subforum that when you hover over the thread link, it'll give a preview (first X characters) of the thread? Just so I can decide whether it's worth clicking on. I relied on that a lot at NM. Or maybe it's just me...

This will be coming on an update around the first week of June. It won't exactly be a hover effect, but more like the little user info popup next to user's name (the small green button). You'll get a little box that shows the first post, first unread post and last post of a thread without actually having to go into the thread itself.
