Design changes ahead

The site needs to be updated in terms of the CMS (software) package it runs on, and with that the site will get a bit of a facelift. That's the site part, not the forum. Is there any features you can think of that you want added and/or removed?

 

A member map is doable. Anybody else with some thoughts about what they would like to see added to the site (or removed)?

 

Thanks Steve. I have been enjoying the past few months as all I had to do was post some Fulham news and transfer speculation (which I don't really enjoy, I'd rather tune in the day after and see who we got). And appreciate seeing some new faces and some returning faces post here.

But sadly everything has to be updated to stay ahead of people who enjoy exploiting sites that not up with the latest security updates. I'm trying to keep much of everything as is, but may have to chuck a few things. Forum and chat should remain very much intact as is. The other site newsfeeds may have to go, although I don't think many people are using that feature to begin with. Weblinks are a bit iffy right now since I can't seem to get them to work properly in the new site upgrade. Minor glitch I think, so should be able to keep it.

Not sure about the player profiles. The official Fulham site has that, and I don't want to just copy and paste info. Been thinking about doing a FUSA history page and Fulham American players page. I just don't know if I want or have the time to spend writing all the info up, so if there are any volunteers out there...please, help.

I don't mind working or playing around with web code and applications, it's the writing part that's a killer for me.

 

That sounds fine to me. If anybody wants to start a thread on any player, be my guest.

 

I have set-up the new site on a sub-domain and everyone is welcome to give feedback on it so far. It's not fully complete, but fairly close to it.

Not sure about which route to take in regards to the chat room. You're welcome to check out something I think might be better for a chat room...it's html5, so it is available on portable devices, including the Ipad. It does not work in conjunction with the forum, so you would need to put your screen name in the guest sign in box (and the who's chatting on the index page would become obsolete). Also, it can be accessed by facebook and twitter accounts.

Let me know what you guys think about the chat and other stuff on the future version of the site. Thanks.

 

Changed...I was playing around with the different fonts before I migrated the site for public consumption and forgot to switch it back to the original. Should look better now.
