Ive set a date, for an upload, and mass change of the forums, and the main site.
Within these changes, like you've all read about already, nothing will be lost. Nothing will be restricted, only moved.
The color scheme will not change much, asides from the 4 8 15 16 23 42 number gradient going away and being replaced.
The banner will change.
This place will be becomming "True Vision Ltd." I checked Google, and no one is using it!
The banner will become very detailed, expressing artisitic, and programming development.
The main site, will have similar theme and style as the forum.
The board setup will very surley follow this set up:
True Vision Ltd. ---Recent Releases ---Old Releases ---Wishlist/Chat
General ---General Board ---Welcome (possibly)
Development (name change possible) --- Tutorials ( move only) --- Sprites & Tiles --- Wallpapers & Drawings --- Music & Sound --- Resource Request
Other Boards ---LOST ---Polls ---everything I missed.
Hopefully It will follow something like this,
if you four want something changed, just ask.

Probably put the General Board on top. I don't know.
Just seperate the Crash Bandicoot and 3D Modeling and Animations stuff. Put the Spyro Board with Crash.

Alright, but they will still go into the older boards as a sub board. Since it would become to diverse and general if that happened.

Alright, but change the description of that board then to say exactly what's in there.

Yes, that will be done for sure. All this will happen all at once, on Dec.22. It will be hectate. A forum matience is ineveatble. While I upload the first site material, I will work on the forum. I will then post news over and over again on the main site to make it look "big" and then start affliting. And then, go back to the game!

Alright. How much time of forum maintenance do you expect? I don't think that something like this should take more than 2-3 hours. But of course, you are on dial-up.

yeah, not to worry, I wont be putting it in manitence mode, no one's here anyway! Just have to promise not to post. It might get lost!?
Either way, 2-3 hours tops! Not much is changing, the Skin will hardly change at all, asides from a few alters here and there. Board colors will not change.

This list looks good Reno, and I like the name you picked out for the forum. The only thing I would add is under the Developement list, you should include a writing section, TMP will make use of it and I and even Ras might some time. So you do still plan to use this site as the base instead of making a whole new site after all.

Well, remember Mal, this is only the forum.
I FORGOT TO ADD THIS:
YOU HAVE THE OPTION, IF YOU WANT, TO SUBMIT YOUR WORK, TO THE MAIN SITE AS WELL! WHICH IS NOT THE FORUM, BUT THE ACTUAL WEBSITE. ALL CONTENT, SUCH AS GAMES, GAME NEWS, SPRITES, AND ALL THAT, WILL BE ADDED THERE ON A WEEKLY BASIS.
Yes, I can add a writing section.

Sweet. A writing section. For sure I won't be putting my full-blown novels there, but maybe some sneak peaks.
These are all great ideas. Heck. I wouldn't care if you do it tomorrow. (Well actually, there's nothing to do tomorrow. So, I guess Friday it is.)
Oh, and the name, Amazing.

I agree. There is little more to plan for. There are no objections to the changes and the ideas have been chosen. All that's left is the manual task. Can't wait for it Reno. Just inform us when you plan to work on it so we don't post during that time.
