BZPower Forums Return!


Recommended Posts

I am excited for the new look of the site - right now, it's all a little too overwhelming, but it will stick with me in time. I particularly like the new UI, were it is so easy to view your messages, notifications and blog. Nevertheless, I still hope we will get fresh graphics - I miss the old Hapori Logo at the top, and I would love to see new ranks for everyone. Thank you guys, it's been a blast since the forums are down, and it looks promising for the future.

It was about a time. I wonder how many has left BZP in the meanwhile. Also, am I the only one who sees the forum outfit as a placeholder? It seems a bit like a default template or something. In my opinion. Is this the final outfit?

I agree with you, it does seem a bit... default...
It is indeed the default skin. Remember we told you that the members would be tasked with creating the new skins? ;)~Gata. ;)

As I have said, I love the new design. All I hope is that it lasts a long time, serves everybody's needs, and that everybody is happy with it. I'm glad it's back up, and I'm glad it's working out alright! ;)

We are? Well, don't expect anything from me... I couldn't help even if I tried.

Personally, I'm not too fond of the new look... maybe that's just because I'm not used to it yet... but oh well. Welcome back BZPower forum!

I agree. I miss having Tohu in the top banner, and some of the greens on this skin class horribly. However, I'm just glad that BZP is back. -don't touch my pocket protector

Keep in mind that if Star Trek fans had, as a group, said, "No point in talking about this anymore, it's never going to come back," it never WOULD have come back.

YESSSS! I'm ba-a-ack! It's not even my line. :| Anyway, I've been around, matured as a fangirl (meaning I'm now obsessed with a 15 Anime. It involves personified countries), rediscovered Cry-x and generally missed you. And guys, you missed my birthday! Anyone seen Squishy anywhere? Or Titch?

After the half-year wait, it's good to have the forums back :)

Nice to see BZP back up and running. =D I would've posted earlier, but I was still trying to see what was new. Very nice, though; and the whole avatar/personal photo merge is interesting. Now I don't have to worry about two different pictures, and whether majhost/brickshelf has gone down anymore. =P Notifications is also definitely interesting, and if anyone's noticed, I've been taking the time to make as much use of that as I can. =P

I'm definitely interested, but I've never skinned with IPB 3.2.1(=P), so, I don't have any of the CSS to edit.Unless I'm mistaken on how this'll work and it's a case of editing an image to show, I dunno.

Alright then. I wasn't sure, so I thought I'd ask. Theoretically, there'd be less to edit, but I know of another place that looked like it had a simple look; but the CSS told a different story. =P But no need to figure that out until more details are available. If I need to, I could always ask different questions in that topic. =PThanks for answering that question though, Gata.

But either way, it slows my computer.

The reason for that is probably because of the immense amount of JavaScript used now. A solution I can give you is to clear your browser cache, and maybe the error console. It doesn't fix the fact that there is a ton of JavaScript now, but it may speed up your browsing. Also, if you don't do this often, go ahead and clear your history if you want, because that usually helps. ;)

I don't really like this layout. And why did ya'll say IPB was gonna end their hosting, even though they arent?

Invision has indeed stopped their hosting services, but the software is apart from that. ;) IPB is one of the best forum softwares around, so need to replace it, which would have created a ton of compatibility issues anyway.~Gata. ;)

I don't mean to be negative, but the fact that this new update has essentially wiped the slate clean has killed any interest I might have had in the return of BZP. The forum simply won't be the same now that 10+ years of history have literally become history, and I don't see myself spending any time here beyond replying to the occasional fan fiction topic.

I've noticed that we now have little icons to share topics and forums. That's pretty cool! Does anybody use them, because I love to!
