So I'm guess that Lutients are moderators, and Captains would then be admins, or somthing like that.

Pretty much bang on, good sir. Unless you're a 12th Squad Techie, in which case you're gifted powers over limited parts of the board. In the case of Andre, this would be the Anime and Manga section, to aid with his job of posting up links for the manga/anime.

I suggest making a separate forum for introductions, that way people can make a post for themselves and everyone can say hi, and we won't get people lost in pages and pages of 1 thread (and people can just search their name and find their intro post)
Also when the main RP kicks off, i'd suggest getting people to make accounts for their characters with their character names. I've seen other RP forums where people had multiple characters on the one user and their signature got HUGE it became annoying to read, even if it was just 2 or 3 characters they had a big banner for each. That way also if you have seperate RP settings going on then characters that belong to one could be made so they can only post in that one. Also it helps with the confusion of which character is posting, espcially if you have more than one in one thread. so signatures can be kept simple, a single banner with height and width restrictions (just so people don't go crazy huge) maybe a 1 line quote from the character or his motto and then at the bottom the players OOC name or link to their ooc account.
i also understand if ya don't wanna do that coz it could mean a HUGE amount of accounts come flooding in.

When we get enough members and topics start going onto the second page of an area for new posts, that's when we'll expand. There is NO point in making this place bigger than it needs to be just yet.

Okay, a double post to ask: how is the new skin looking in it's nearly finished state? Yes, I know the background could do with cleaning up. And I've still got a lot of buttons to go, along with new emotes. But generally I think this is looking pretty sweet now; I'm especially proud of the new icons declaring whether there's a new post or not.
Next Bleach skin will probably be influenced by the very first intro; flashy colours, silly clothes, etc.
Comments, guys! ^^

Well if it's any consolation it's pretty useless on my monitor, my wonderful 14" job. Now my mum's LCD thingy with a 1024 resolution, I think, it comes out pretty much perfectly ^^ On my own computer all I can see is butterflies too! XD

So I can see there are 17 members now, yummy.
I can also see a SEVERE lack of activity, only about 5 posts in the last 24 hours that were not made by me. Come on guys, this board can be the best Bleach forum out there, but I need some help in making it interesting. Sure I can start topics off and whatnot, but I need you guys to reply to them and actually be active! XD
I guess I started this at the wrong time eh, what with it being exam season!

Okay, new banner up and ready. What do we all think? If we like this, I'll use the butterflies from it to create the new button ^^
Edit: thinking of butterflies, I have changed the icon in the top bar(and also favourites) to one. If you're using Firefox and you can't see it, try clearing your cache and restarting the program. If you're using IE, apparently the site has to be saved in your favourites before you can see it.
Either way, there's 18 members now. GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK so we can improve this place!
Next on list after buttons is improving the background, and seeing if I can access the CSS to alter even more images. Then maybe once this is perfect, I can create that new skin ^^

A little bit of a bump on this topic, boys and girls, because now all the drama is over on SB and work is hopefully calming down, I would like an update on here.
We're one member off hitting the magical 3-0 ^^ but I'd like to give some back - briefly glancing over the forums, only one or two of you are creating topics :S yes, it's great that the topics created are insanely active, but I'd like to see more threads being created by different people. Even if you've seen it before on another forum or you think nobody will reply to it, have a go instead of leaving it to the same members each time to come up with something new to say.
Now it's your turn - is the forum to your liking? Is there anything you'd change, either physically or aesthetically? What do you think could convince people to come back or make new threads? Do we need anything adding on or removing? Anything I may have missed?
Leave your feedback here, don't be shy.

506, 11th Squad Barracks is most appropriate location for a spam section, what with the insane amount of chaos that lives within their squad building XD please use it everyone, or I'll just take it back down again and merge the topics back where they came from. Lunar, I won't give you a cookie - but I can add one to your post count if you like just imagine that little number going slowly upwards one post after another.... oh wait, it does already! XD And I'm working on members ^^ believe you me, good sir!
