This post will serve as a roll call for you CP'ers out there. Please make your voice heard here as we have a few things to discuss in regards to software issues at CP.

Since an upgrade is both inevitable and unavoidable, I'd prefer if the work I do is inline with what you'd like to see changed or kept the same at the existing site. If you are a staff member of CP, please post a reply here so I can set you up with CP Staff Privileges here.

Thanks,

Ken

I like the way the site looks. I had thought about some changes, but couldn't really think of anything better.
So leaving it the same feel and look works great for me.

The main page though could use a little color maybe or something like that.

I also like the network chat that is on here.

I'll try to mock something up in Photoshop to give us a goal of what the site will eventually look like. I do think some color is needed and the only reason we don't have any currently is because of my development on creating a different concept in phpnuke theming.

I do believe I have some of the bugs worked out and have also learned my lesson in regards to local images so the next theme should be much better and hopefully work in IE/Firefox/Opera better.

Also A-C, what would you like your title here to be and what title would you like assigned to the remainder of your staff when they visit this site? I need to know who is who because they will all need staff level access to your sites admin forums here.

BTW, I tried many times to integrate a decent chat program into phpnuke and gave up. There simply is no decent chat system that can tap into phpnuke's memberslist that doesn't slow the server down to a crawl. The reason we use this chat here is because this is vBulletin Software and the chat we use is Ajax based thus much lighter on server resources.

I strongly recommend you educate your members on the chat here and bring them over here to use it. Not only will this give a chance for all of you to chat "real time", it will also allow you to get to know the members at Lifesupporters.com as well.

I'll be advertising this chat at all Network Sites because the idea is to bring all the members together and also increase cross site traffic/exposure in the process. IMHO, bringing all the sites closer together is a good thing and I'd like to do all I can to encourage it.

Hey just checking in.

Sorry guys been busy lately. Studying hard, working a lot, and still trying to lift my eBay business. I think I have finally found a good overseas supplier and may be ready to start selling hopefully before Christmas to get in with the whole Christmas rush.

Good to see you ___Raverz___

I still need to know from you guys what rank you want here onsite because I have to associate your rank with a permission set that allows you access to the Network Staffing Areas.

Is CP Owner, CP Staff good enough and if so, who is who?

__RavErz__ · 10-24-2007, 11:18 PM

I will make the executive decision to say it is good enough, even though aussie chris is the owner lol.

Crazy_Captain_Chris · 10-30-2007, 03:59 PM

Thanks for your executive decision Raverz, you did well lol.
I think that sounds good too.

Sorry I haven't been around as well, been studying too and trying to get Shopinoz up and running.
As for letting you know who is who, Ive been trying to get onto CP to email a few people, but I cant get into it, the IP problem. I still cant get on today.
I have to talk to a few MODs there as they don't come in anymore and I was thinking about taking them all off the mod list and just have Raverz and Srhelmer as MODS for the whole site and pay them maybe a few dollars a month.

OK, well it's clear we can't get around the IP issue anymore so I'm simply going to backup the site sometime this weekend and update everything on the 11th (ish). You're site will be accessible to everyone but you won't have a full pirate theme for a short while until I can code one for you.

I'll also give you both the proper access here later this week and put everything in the appropriate staffing area.

Duke · 11-09-2007, 02:20 PM

Both of your ranks have been updated with re-direct to your website. I still have to work on your custom permissions for staff discussions and tie them into International-Gathering and Gamemoviemaking Staff Permissions.

I'll get to this shortly.
